be spread out.

WARNING
Do not load the vehicle any
heavier than the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR), or either the
maximum front or rear Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).
This can cause systems to
break and change the way the
vehicle handles. This could
cause loss of control and a
crash. Overloading can also
shorten the life of the vehicle.

vehicle can strike and injure
people in a sudden stop or
turn, or in a crash.

area of the vehicle. Try to
spread the weight evenly.
. Never stack heavier
things, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above
the tops of the seats.

unsecured child restraint
in the vehicle.
