CAUTION:
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the
GVWR, or either the maximum front or rear
GAWR.
If
you do, parts on your vehicle can
break, or
it
can change the
way
your vehicle
handles. These could cause you to lose control.
Also, overloading can shorten the life
of
your vehicle.
NOTICE:
Your warranty does not cover parts or
components
that
fail
because
of

A
CAUTION:
Things you put inside your vehicle can strike
and injure people in
a
sudden stop or turn, or in
a
crash.
Put things in the cargo area of your 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.
Don’t leave an unsecured child restraint in
your vehicle.
When you
carry
something inside the
vehicle, secure it whenever you can.
Don’t leave
a
seat folded down unless
you
need
to.
If
you
put things inside your vehicle
--
like suitcases,
tools, packages or anything else
--
they will go as fast
as
the vehicle goes. If you have
to
stop or turn quickly, or
if there is
a
crash, they’ll keep going.
There’s also important loading information for off-road
driving in this manual. See “Loading Your Vehicle for
Off-Road Driving” in the Index.
