positions (1), and the maximum
vehicle capacity weight (2) in
kilograms and pounds.

For more information on tires
and inflation see
and
There is also important loading
information on the vehicle
Certification/Tire label. It tells
you the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) and the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for
the front and rear axle. See
“
Certification/Tire Label

later in
this section.
Steps for Determining Correct
Load Limit
1.
Locate the statement
“
The
combined weight of
occupants and cargo should
never exceed XXX kg or
XXX lbs
”
on your vehicle's
placard.
2.
Determine the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers from XXX kg or
XXX lbs.
4.
The resulting figure equals
the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity.
For example, if the
“
XXX
”
amount equals 1400 lbs and
there will be five 150 lb
passengers in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo
and luggage load capacity is
650 lbs (1400
−
750 (5 x 150)
= 650 lbs).
5.
Determine the combined
weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle.
That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.
6.
If your vehicle will be towing
a trailer, the load from your
trailer will be transferred to
your vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo
and luggage load capacity of
your vehicle. See
for
important information on
towing a trailer, towing safety
rules and trailering tips.
