TIRE INFORMATION
CARRYING ITEMS
WARNING: The trunk is the preferred
place to carry objects. In an accident,
during hard braking, or sudden maneuvers,
loose items carried in the vehicle’s cabin
area can be thrown around, and cause
injury to occupants unless securely
fastened.
TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING: Do not tow a trailer with
your Revero. The Karma has not
been designed to have a trailer hitch
installed on it. The installation of a trailer
hitch may cause serious damage to the
vehicle which could result in an accident or
serious injury.
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 (Tire information and
loading label).
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 the vehicle,
the amount of available cargo and
luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750
(5x150) = 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.
EXAMPLE LOAD LIMIT CALCULATIONS
The number and weight of passengers will
affect the cargo and luggage load
capacity. The following are typical
examples of calculated load limits.
Example 1:
Example 2:
Note:
If the passengers weigh more, the
available cargo capacity will decrease.
