To determine the correct cargo and
luggage load limit:
Locate the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 850 lbs
(395 kg)’’ on your vehicle’s placard
(on the driver’s doorjamb).
Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in the vehicle.
(Five is seating capacity of your
vehicle.)
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers from
850 lbs (395 kg).
The resulting figure equals the
available load capacity.
Store or secure all items that could
be thrown around and hurt
someone during a crash.
Be sure items placed on the floor
behind the front seats cannot roll
under the seats and interfere with
the pedals or seat operation.
Keep the glove box closed while
driving. If it is open, a passenger
could injure their knees during a
crash or sudden stop.
For example, if there will be four 150
lbs (70 kg) occupants in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo and
luggage load capacity is 250 lbs (115
kg).
4 150 lbs (70 kg) = 600 lbs (280
kg)
850 lbs (395 kg) 600 lbs (280 kg) =
250 lbs (115 kg)
The maximum load for your vehicle
is 850 lbs (395 kg). This figure
includes total weight of all occupants,
cargo, and accessories.
Do not put any items on top of the
trunk panel. They can block your
view and be thrown around the
vehicle during a crash.
Determine the combined weight
of accessories, luggage, and cargo
beingloadedinthevehicle.The
weight may not safely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity calculated in step 4.
