These guidelines must be followed when loading the cargo area:
This means you should weigh
your RV as loaded for your normal travel to determine the actual weight.
If you exceed the GVWR, you remove items from the RV, or
drain liquids, then re-weigh the vehicle to ensure you have achieved a
safe weight. Do not travel with full grey/black holding tanks. Depending
on the location of the grey or black holding tanks, it can aect handling
characteristics.
Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the cargo ramp. See
Cargo Door section.
Failure to comply with weight capacities and distribution could result in
an accident or loss of control resulting in death of serious injury.
Your recreation vehicle’s load capacity is designated by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily use all available space when loading
the vehicle. Do not exceed your GVWR and ensure you are loading the
vehicle as evenly as you can for the best possible handling. Ensure heavy
items are secured so they do not shift during travel.
It is important to evenly distribute the load when loading the cargo bay area. Failure to do
so could adversely aect the towing and handling or the RV.
The following guidelines must be used when loading the cargo area of the RV.
Any motorized vehicle or motorized equipment powered with ammable liq-
uid can cause re or explosion or asphyxiation if stored or transported within
the recreational vehicle. To reduce the risk of re, explosion or asphyxiation:
1. Do not ride in the vehicle storage area while vehicles are present.
2. Do not sleep in the vehicle storage area while vehicles are present.
3. Close doors and windows in walls of separation (if installed) while any
vehicle is present.
4. Run fuel out of engines of stored vehicles after shutting o fuel at the
tank.
5. Do not store, transport, or dispense fuel inside this vehicle.
6. Open the windows, openings, or air ventilation systems provided for
venting the transportation area when vehicles are present.
7. Do not operate propane appliances, pilot lights, or electrical equipment
when vehicles are present.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN AN INCREASED RISK OF
FIRE, EXPLOSION OR ASPHYXIATION RESULTING IN DEATH OR SE-
RIOUS INJURY.
