Preparation:

• Ensure the installation area is clean and free of dirt or debris.
• For front wheel installation, turn the steering wheel to the left to provide ample space for access.
• Identify the correct mud flap for each wheel (Front Left, Front Right, Rear Left, Rear Right) by checking the markings on the back of each flap.

4. Operating Principles

The BASENOR Mud Flaps are designed to extend the coverage of your vehicle's wheel wells, effectively deflecting road debris, water, mud, and snow that are kicked up by the tires. This protective barrier minimizes the impact of these elements on your vehicle's paintwork and undercarriage, preserving its condition and reducing the need for frequent cleaning.

Their design ensures optimal clearance from the ground, preventing interference with speed bumps or uneven terrain under normal driving conditions, while still providing maximum protection.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and continued effectiveness of your BASENOR Mud Flaps, regular maintenance is recommended:

• Cleaning: Wash the mud flaps regularly with soap and water, especially after driving in muddy, snowy, or dusty conditions. This prevents buildup that could affect their performance or appearance.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the mud flaps for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Check that all screws and clips remain securely fastened.
• Protective Film: While the included protective film helps prevent paint damage, it's advisable to occasionally check its condition and replace it if it shows significant wear or peeling.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your BASENOR Mud Flaps, consider the following:

• Loose Fit: If a mud flap feels loose, re-tighten the screws and ensure the clips are properly seated. Over time, vibrations can cause fasteners to loosen.
• Damage from Obstacles: While designed for durability, extreme impacts with curbs, speed bumps, or rough terrain can cause damage. Inspect the mud flap for cracks or breaks. If severely damaged, replacement may be necessary.
• Incorrect Model Fit: Ensure you have the correct mud flaps for your specific Tesla Model 3 Highland (2024-2025). Mud flaps designed for other Model 3 or Model Y years may not fit perfectly.
