LOADING THE VEHICLE
WARNING: Overloading the vehicle
will have an adverse effect on braking
and handling characteristics, which could
compromise your safety or damage the
vehicle.
It is important to understand how much
weight your vehicle can safely carry. This
weight is called the vehicle capacity weight
and includes the weight of all occupants,
cargo and any additional equipment fitted
to the vehicle since it was manufactured.
There are two labels affixed to your vehicle
that state how much weight your vehicle
can safely carry:
1. Tire and loading information label.
2. Vehicle certification label.
With the driver’s door open, these labels are
located on the center door post.
Tire and loading information label /
vehicle placard
The tire and loading information label
contains the following information:
• The maximum number of occupant
seating positions.
• The maximum vehicle capacity weight in
kilograms (kg) and pounds (lbs).
• The size of the tires originally fitted to the
vehicle.
• The cold inflation pressures for the
original specification of front and rear
tires.
The stated tire pressures provide optimum
ride and handling characteristics for all
normal operating conditions.
Note: This label must not be changed, even
if different wheels are fitted at a later stage.
