3. Subtract the combined weight of<br />

the driver and passengers from<br />

XXX kg or XXX lbs.<br />

4. The resulting figure equals the<br />

available amount of cargo and<br />

luggage load capacity. For example,<br />

if the XXX amount equals<br />

1400 lbs. and there will be five<br />

150 lb. passengers in your vehicle,<br />

the amount of available cargo<br />

and luggage load capacity is 650<br />

lbs. (1400 − 750 (5 x 150) = 650<br />

lbs) or 640 − 340 (5 x 70) = 300<br />

kg.)<br />

5. Determine the combined weight of<br />

luggage and cargo being loaded<br />

on the vehicle. That weight may<br />

not safely exceed the available<br />

cargo and luggage load capacity<br />

calculated in Step 4.<br />

6. If your vehicle will be towing a<br />

trailer, load from your trailer will<br />

be transferred to your vehicle.<br />

Consult this manual to determine<br />

how this reduces the available<br />

9-16 Technical and consumer information<br />

cargo and luggage load capacity<br />

of your vehicle.<br />

Before driving a loaded vehicle,<br />

confirm that you do not exceed the<br />

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)<br />

or the Gross Axle Weight Rating<br />

(GAWR) for your vehicle. (See “Measurement<br />

of weights” later in this<br />

section.)<br />

Also check tires for proper inflation<br />

pressures. See the Tire and Loading<br />

Information label.<br />

LOADING TIPS<br />

. The GVW must not exceed GVWR<br />

or GAWR as specified on the F.M.V.<br />

S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification label.<br />

. Do not load the front and rear axle<br />

to the GAWR. Doing so will exceed<br />

the GVWR.<br />

WARNING<br />

. Properly secure all cargo to help<br />

prevent it from sliding or shifting.<br />

.<br />

Do not place cargo higher than the<br />

seatbacks. In a sudden stop or<br />

collision, unsecured cargo could<br />

cause personal injury.<br />

Do not load your vehicle any<br />

heavier than the GVWR or the<br />

maximum front and rear GAWRs.<br />

If you do, parts of your vehicle can<br />

break, tire damage could occur, or<br />

it can change the way your vehicle<br />

handles. This could result in loss<br />

of control and cause personal<br />

injury.<br />

. Overloading could not only shorten<br />

the life of your vehicle and the<br />

tires, but also could lead to<br />

hazardous vehicle handling and<br />

long braking distance. This may<br />

cause a premature tire malfunction,<br />

which could result in a<br />

serious accident and personal injury.<br />

Failures caused by overloading<br />

are not covered by the<br />

vehicle’s warranty.
