Installing the Skoda Karoq Reversible Boot Mat is straightforward due to its precise design for the vehicle's luggage compartment.
- Ensure the boot floor of your Skoda Karoq is clean and free from obstructions.

4. Operating and Usage
The reversible design of the boot mat allows you to choose the appropriate surface based on the type of cargo you are transporting.
- Textile Side (Black Fabric): Use this side when transporting clean items, such as groceries, luggage, or sports equipment that will not soil the boot. This side offers a more aesthetic and softer surface.
- Plastic Side (Black Ribbed Plastic): Flip the mat to this side when carrying dirty, wet, or potentially messy items, such as muddy boots, gardening tools, or wet sports gear. The non-slip plastic surface effectively contains dirt and moisture, protecting the original boot carpet.

To switch between sides, simply lift the mat from the boot, flip it over, and reposition it. The mat's robust construction ensures it maintains its shape and protective qualities regardless of the side in use.
5. Maintenance
Maintaining your Skoda Karoq Reversible Boot Mat is simple, ensuring its longevity and continued effectiveness.
- Regular Cleaning: For light dirt or dust, simply shake out the mat.
- Washing: The mat is washable. For more significant dirt, mud, or spills, remove the mat from the vehicle and clean it using ordinary detergents and water.
- Drying: Allow the mat to air dry completely before placing it back into the vehicle to prevent moisture buildup.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or strong chemical solvents, as these may damage the mat's surfaces.
6. Troubleshooting
The Skoda Karoq Reversible Boot Mat is a passive accessory and typically does not require troubleshooting. Its design ensures a perfect fit and reliable performance.
- Mat Not Lying Flat: Ensure the mat is correctly positioned within the boot and not folded or obstructed by other items. Remove and re-insert if necessary.
- Persistent Odor: If the mat develops an odor from spills, clean it thoroughly as described in the Maintenance section and allow it to air out in a well-ventilated area.
