Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
N00630200052
1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on
your vehicle’s placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passen-
gers that will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers
from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity. For example, if the “XXX”
amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lbs.
passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo
and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x
150) = 650 lbs.)
5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity cal-
culated in Step 4.
6. 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 your vehicle.
