Loading

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.
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. The ultimate result
can assume the form of a sudden blow-out.<
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.
Make sure that no fluids leak in the cargo
bay; otherwise the vehicle could be dam-
aged.<

Locate the following statement on your
vehicle's placard*:
BMW X6:
The combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
YYY lbs. or XXX kg. Otherwise, this could
damage the vehicle and produce unstable
vehicle operating conditions.<
Determine the combined weight of the
driver and passengers that will be riding in
your vehicle.
3.
4.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver
and passengers from YYY lbs. or XXX kg.
The permissible load is the total of the weight of
occupants and cargo/luggage. The greater the
weight of occupants, the less cargo/luggage
can be transported.
The resulting figure equals the available
amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
For example, if the YYY amount equals
1,400
lbs. and there will be five 150 lbs.
passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage load capacity is
650
lbs.:
1,400
lbs. minus 750 lbs. = 650 lbs.
