Load Limits
The maximum load for your vehicle
is 870 lbs (395 kg).

See Tire And Loading Information
label attached to the driver's
doorjamb.

Label Example

This figure includes the total weight
of all occupants, cargo, and
accessories, and the tongue load if
you are towing a trailer.

Overloading or improper
loading can affect handling and
stability and cause a crash in
which you can be hurt or killed.

Follow all load limits and other
loading guidelines in this
manual.

Steps for Determining Correct Load
Limit

1. Locate the statement

‘‘The

combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg
or XXX lbs.

’’ 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 kg or XXX lbs.

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╳150)=650 lbs.)
