Certification Label (Type B) - if
equipped
Tyre Label
The Certification/Tyre label is found on
the front edge of the RH (or LH) "B" pil
-
lar. The label shows the size of your orig
-
inal tyres and inflation pres- sures
needed to obtain the gross weight
capacity of your vehicle.
This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the
weight of the vehicle, all occupants, fuel
and cargo. The Certification/Tyre label
also tells you the maximum weights for
the front and rear axles, called Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).
Never exceed the GVWR for your vehi
-
cle, or the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) for either the front or rear axle.
And, if you do have a heavy load, you
should spread it out.
Your warranty does not cover parts or
components that fail because of over
-
loading.
Do not load your vehicle any heavier
than the GVWR or the maximum front
and rear GAWRs. If you do, change to
the vehicle may occur, or it can change
the way your vehicle handles. These
could cause you to lose control. Also,
overload- ing can shorten the life of your
vehicle.
