Tire and Loading Information Label

A vehicle specific Tire and Loading Information label is
attached to the center pillar (B-pillar) of your vehicle.
With the driver’s door open, you will find the label
attached below the door latch. This label shows the
number of occupant seating positions (A), and the
maximum vehicle capacity weight (B) in kilograms
and pounds.

The Tire and Loading Information label also shows the
size of the original equipment tires (C) and the
recommended cold tire inflation pressures (D). For more
information on tires and inflation see Tires on page 5-51
and Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-58.

There is also important loading information on the
vehicle Certification label. It tells you the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for the front and rear axle. See
“Certification Label” later in this section.

Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit

1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of

occupants and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX pounds” on your vehicle’s placard.

2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and

passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.

3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and

passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.
