Vehicle Loading
WARNING
DO NOT exceed the specified load rat-
ing. Overloading can result in loss of
vehicle control, either by causing com-
ponent failures or by affecting vehicle
handling. Exceeding load ratings can
also shorten the service life of the ve-
hicle. Failure to comply may result in
death or personal injury.
WARNING
An unevenly distributed load or exces-
sive load over one axle can adversely
affect the braking and handling of your
vehicle, which could result in an acci-
dent. Even if your load is under the le-
gal limits, be sure it is distributed even-
ly. Failure to comply may result in
death, personal injury, equipment or
property damage.
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
or the maximum front and rear Gross Axle
Weight Ratings are determined by the
components installed from the factory on to
the vehicle and their designed
specifications. (Axle weight ratings are
listed on the driver's door edge.)
GVWR
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. This is
the MAXIMUM WEIGHT your vehicle
is allowed to carry, including the
weight of the empty vehicle, loading
platform, occupants, fuel, and any
load. Never exceed the GVWR of your
vehicle.
GCW
Gross Combination Weight (GCW).
This is the actual combined weight of
your vehicle and its load: vehicle, plus
trailer(s), plus cargo.
GAWR
Gross Axle Weight Rating. This is the
total weight that one axle is designed
to transmit to the ground. You will find
this number listed on the driver's door
edge.
Load
Distribution
Be sure any load you carry is
distributed so that no axle has to
support more than its GAWR.

Maximum Load Rating
Be sure that the load on the vehicle is
distributed evenly across each axle so that
no axle has to support more than its rated
GAWR. In total, the vehicle and its load
should not exceed the GAWR for each axle
and must not exceed the GCW.
Visual inspection while
approaching the vehicle
While approaching the vehicle, inspect the
general appearance of the vehicle and its
surroundings for any signs of needed
attention.
