Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the “Maximum Load” amount on the tire and
loading information 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 the “Maximum Load” amount.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount
of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example,
if the “Maximum Load” amount equals 1400 lbs
(635 kg) and there will be five 150 lb (68 kg)
passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage load capacity
is 650 lbs (295 kg).
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.
Do not use your vehicle to tow a trailer. The vehicle is
not designed or intended for such a use. Towing a trailer
can adversely affect handling, durability and fuel
economy.
