Steps for determining correct load
limit:The maximum load for your vehicle
is 1,158 lbs (525 kg). This figure
includes the total weight of all
occupants, cargo, and accessories,
and the tongue load if you are towing
a trailer.
Locate the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 1,158
lbs (525 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 your vehicle.
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers from
1,158 pounds or 525 kg kilograms.
The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity.
For example, if the maximum load
is 1,158 lbs and there will be five
150 lb. passengers in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo and
luggage load capacity is 408 lbs.
(1,158 750 (5 150) = 408 lbs.)
Determine the combined weight
of luggage and cargo being loaded
in the vehicle. That weight may
not safely exceed the available
cargo and luggage load capacity in
step 4.
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
yourvehicle(seepage ).
