Driving and Operating Rating (GAWR) for the front and rear axle. See "Certification Label" later in this section. Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit 1. Locate the statement "The 9-13 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). 5. Determine the combined information on towing a trailer, towing safety rules, and trailering tips. 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 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 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 a trailer, the load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle. See Trailer Towing (Except ZL1) on page 9‑56 or Trailer Towing (ZL1) on page 9‑57 for important Example 1 1. Vehicle Capacity Weight for Example 1 = 453 kg (1,000 lbs). 2. Subtract Occupant Weight @ the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs and 68 kg (150 lbs) × 2 = 136 kg (300 lbs). 3. Available Occupant and Cargo Weight = 317 kg (700 lbs).

Driving and Operating

Rating (GAWR) for the front and
rear axle. See
Certification
Label
later in this section.
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.
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).
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, the load from your
trailer will be transferred to
your vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo
and luggage load capacity of
your vehicle.
See
Trailer Towing (Except ZL1)
on page 9

or
Trailer Towing
(ZL1) on page 9

for important
information on towing a trailer,
towing safety rules, and
trailering tips.
Example 1
1.
Vehicle Capacity Weight for
Example 1 = 453 kg
(1,000 lbs).
2.
Subtract Occupant Weight @
68 kg (150 lbs) × 2 = 136 kg
(300 lbs).
3.
Available Occupant and
Cargo Weight = 317 kg
(700 lbs).
