2005 Kia Sportage Owners Manual

Driving tips
Refer to your  vehicle's tire and load-
ing   information   label   for  specific
information    about   your   vehicle's
capacity  weight   and  seating  posi-
tions.  The  combined  weight  of  the
driver, passengers and cargo should
never exceed your vehicle's capacity
weight.
This  label  also  tells  you  the maxi-
mum weights that  can be supported
by  the  front  and  rear axles,  called
Gross Axle  Weight Rating  (GAWR).
To find  out the actual  loads on  your
front and rear  axles, you need to  go
to  a  weigh  station and  weigh  your
vehicle.Your dealer can help you with
this. Be sure to spread out  your load
equally on  both sides  of the center-
line.

WARNING
•  Never  exceed  the  GVWR  for
your vehicle, or the  GAWR for
either the front or rear axle.
Compliance label
The  compliance label  is  located on
the driver's door sill.
The label shows the size of your orig-
inal tires  and the inflation  pressures
needed  to  obtain  the  gross weight
capacity   of   your  vehicle.   This   is
called   the  GVWR   (Gross  Vehicle
Weight Rating). The GVWR includes
the  weight of  the  vehicle,  all  occu-
pants, fuel and cargo.
Do  not load  your vehicle  any
heavier   than  the   GVWR,  or
either  the  maximum  front  or
rear GAWR. If you do, parts on
your vehicle  can break, and it
can change the way your vehi-
cle handles. This  could cause
you to lose control  and crash.
Also, overloading can shorten
the life of your vehicle.
