Certification Label
Label Example
A vehicle specific Certification
label is attached to the rear
edge of the driver door
above the latch mechanism.
The label tells the gross weight
capacity of the vehicle, called
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR). The GVWR includes
the weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel, and cargo.
Never exceed the GVWR for
the vehicle, or the Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR) for
either the front or rear axle.
And, if there is a heavy load,
it should be spread out.
See “Steps for Determining
Correct Load Limit” earlier
in this section.
