Carrying Cargo The maximum load limit for your vehicle is 400 lbs (185 kg). This figure includes the total weight of all occupants, cargo, and accessories. To determine the correct cargo and luggage load limit: 1. Locate the statement, ''the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 400 lbs (185 kg)'' on your vehicle's placard (on the driver's doorjamb). 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passenger that will be riding in your vehicle. (Two is the seating capacity of your vehicle.) 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passenger from 400 lbs (185 kg). 4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if there will be two 150 lbs (70 kg) occupants in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 100 lbs (45 kg). 2 150 lbs (70 kg) = 300 lbs (140 kg) 400 lbs (185 kg) 300 lbs (140 kg) = 100 lbs (45 kg) 5. Determine the combined weight of accessories, luggage, and cargo being loaded in the vehicle. The weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in step 4. Overloading or improper loading can affect handling and stability and cause a crash in which you can be hurt or killed. Follow all load limits and other loading guidelines in this manual. 108 Before Driving

The maximum load limit for your
vehicle is 400 lbs (185 kg). This
figure includes the total weight of all
occupants, cargo, and accessories.
To determine the correct cargo and
luggage load limit:
Locate the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 400 lbs
(185 kg)’’ on your vehicle’s placard
(on the driver’s doorjamb).
Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passenger that
will be riding in your vehicle. (Two
is the seating capacity of your
vehicle.)
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passenger from 400
lbs (185 kg).
The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity.
For example, if there will be two 150
lbs (70 kg) occupants in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo and
luggage load capacity is 100 lbs (45
kg).

150 lbs (70 kg) = 300 lbs (140
kg)
400 lbs (185 kg)
300 lbs (140 kg) =
100 lbs (45 kg)
Determine the combined weight
of accessories, luggage, and cargo
being loaded in the vehicle. The
weight may not safely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity calculated in step 4.
