Motor Trend MT-923-BK FlexTough Contour Liners: Universal Trim-to-Fit Floor Mats Instruction Manual

Introduction

This manual provides instructions for the proper installation, use, and maintenance of your Motor Trend MT-923-BK FlexTough Contour Liners. These heavy-duty rubber floor mats are designed to offer all-weather protection for the interior of various vehicles, including cars, SUVs, trucks, and vans. Please read these instructions carefully before installation to ensure optimal fit and performance.

Product Features

  • Genuine FlexTough Material: Provides maximum all-weather protection against snow, rain, and mud.
  • Universal Fit Design: Engineered to fit most vehicles, with flexible rubber that conforms to interior contours.
  • Heavy-Duty Rubber Construction: Made from a proprietary rubber blend for durability, resisting deforming or cracking.
  • Trim-to-Fit Customization: Features a trimmable design allowing for further customization to your vehicle's specific floor dimensions.
  • Easy to Clean: Spills, dirt, and stains can be easily wiped off with soap and water.

Setup and Installation

The Motor Trend FlexTough Contour Liners are designed for universal fit and can be customized to your vehicle's floor plan. Follow these steps for proper installation:

  1. Prepare the Vehicle Floor: Remove any existing floor mats from your vehicle. Clean the vehicle's carpet thoroughly to ensure a secure and stable placement of the new mats.
  2. Position the Mats: Place the front mats (27" L x 20" W) in the driver and passenger footwells. Position the rear mat (51" L x 14" W) in the rear passenger area.
  3. Assess Fit: Observe how the mats sit in your vehicle. The universal design is intended to cover a wide range of vehicle types.
  4. Trim if Necessary: If the mats are too large or interfere with pedal operation (especially the accelerator or brake pedals), they can be trimmed. The mats feature designated trim lines to guide customization. Use sharp scissors or a utility knife for clean cuts. Always trim incrementally and check the fit frequently to avoid over-trimming. Ensure that the mats do not obstruct pedal movement or interfere with seat adjustments.

Operating

Once installed, the FlexTough Contour Liners require no special operation. Their deep dish design and high ridges are engineered to capture and contain dirt, mud, slush, and spills, protecting your vehicle's original carpet. The non-slip grip rubberized nibs on the underside help keep the mats securely in place during use.

Maintenance

Maintaining your Motor Trend FlexTough Contour Liners is simple and helps prolong their lifespan and effectiveness:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Periodically remove the mats from your vehicle.
  2. Rinse: Use a hose to rinse off loose dirt and debris.
  3. Wash: For tougher grime, use mild soap and water with a brush or sponge.
  4. Dry: Allow the mats to air dry completely before placing them back in your vehicle to prevent moisture buildup underneath.

Troubleshooting

While these mats are designed for durability and ease of use, some users may experience a temporary odor upon initial unpacking. This is typical for new rubber products.

  • Initial Odor: If a strong rubber odor is present, remove the mats from their packaging and allow them to air out in a well-ventilated area (e.g., outdoors or in a garage) for several days before installation. This will help dissipate the manufacturing scent.
