Cargo loading
Avoid overloading the vehicle
so that the permissible loading
capacity of the tires is not exceeded.
Overloading can lead to overheating
and increases the rate at which damage
develops inside the tires. The ultimate
result can assume the form of a sudden
air loss.<
4. The resulting figure equals the avail-
able amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity.
For example, if the XXX amount
equals 1,350 lbs. and there will be
five 150 lbs. passengers in your vehi-
cle, the amount of available cargo
and luggage load capacity is
600
lbs.:
1,350
lbs. minus 750 lbs. = 600 lbs.

6.
Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded into
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity calculated
in step 4
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer,
load from your trailer will be trans-
ferred to your vehicle. Consult the
manual for transporting a trailer to
determine how this may reduce the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity of your vehicle.
Determining loading limit
1.
Locate the following statement on
your vehicle's placard*:
The combined weight of occu-
pants and cargo should never
exceed XXX lbs. or YYY kg, other-
wise the vehicle may be damaged
and unstable driving conditions may
result.<
2.
3.
Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will be
riding in your vehicle
Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX lbs.
or YYY kg
