VEHICLE LOAD CAPACITY

Do not exceed the load limit of your vehicle

shown as “The combined weight of occupants

and cargo” on the Tire and Loading Information

label. Do not exceed the number of occupants

shown as “Seating Capacity” on the Tire and

Loading Information label.
To get “the combined weight of occupants and

cargo”, add the weight of all occupants, then

add the total luggage weight. Examples are

shown in the illustration.

Steps for determining correct load

limit

(1)Locate the statement “The combined weight

of occupants and cargo should never exceed

XXX pounds or XXX kilograms” 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 pounds or XXX

kilograms.

(4)The resulting figure equals the available

amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.

For example, if the “XXX” amount equals

1,400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb.

passengers in your vehicle, the amount of

available cargo and luggage load capacity is

650 lbs. [1,400 − 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.]

(5)Determine the combined weight of luggage

and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. For

safety, that weight must not exceed the avail-

able cargo and luggage load capacity calcu-

lated in Step 4.

(6)If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load

from your trailer will be transferred to your

vehicle. Consult this manual to determine

how this reduces the available cargo and

luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
