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.
Cargo loading
To avoid loading the tires beyond their
approved carrying capacity, never over-
load the vehicle. Overloading can lead to over-
heating and increases the rate at which damage
develops inside the tires. This can ultimately
result in a sudden blowout.<
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, part of
the load from your trailer will be transferred
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.

driver and passengers that will be riding in
your vehicle.

not occupied, secure each safety belt in the
opposite buckle.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver
and passengers from XXX kilograms or YYY
pounds.
The resulting figure equals the available
amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
