Loading

To load your vehicle properly, first figure out its empty
weight, axle-by-axle and side-by-side. Store heavier items
down low and be sure you distribute their weight as
evenly as possible. Stow all loose items securely before
driving. If weighing the loaded vehicle shows that you
have exceeded either GAWR, but the total load is within
the specified GVWR, you must redistribute the weight.
Improper weight distribution can have an adverse effect
on the way your vehicle steers and handles and the way
the brakes operate.

NOTE:

• Refer to the “Vehicle Certification Label” affixed to the

rear of the driver’s door for your vehicle’s GVWR and
GAWRs.

• Refer to the “Tire Placard” for your vehicle’s proper

tire pressure.
