Steps for determining correct load limit

GUID-6705079D-CAFB-42C4-8404-44D73E33B351

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) or

(640

-

340 (5 x 70) = 300 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.

6.

If your vehicle will be towing a trailer,

load from your trailer will be transferred

to your vehicle. Consult this manual to

determine how this reduces the avail-

able cargo and luggage load capacity

of your vehicle.

Before driving a loaded vehicle, confirm

that you do not exceed the Gross Vehicle

Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle

Weight Rating (GAWR) for your vehicle.

(See “Measurement of weights” later in this

section.)

Also check tires for proper inflation pres-

sures. See the Tire and Loading Information

label.
