CAUTION
The total trailer weight (trailer
weight plus its cargo load) must
not exceed 907 kg (2000 lb.). Ex-
ceeding this weight is dangerous.
!
The gross vehicle weight must not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) indicated on the
Certification Label. The gross ve-
hicle weight is the sum of weights
of the unloaded vehicle, driver,
passengers, luggage, hitch and
trailer tongue load. It also includes
the weight of any special equip-
ment installed on your vehicle.
The load on either the front or rear
axle resulting from distribution of
the gross vehicle weight on both
axles must not exceed the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed
on the Certification Label.
The trailer cargo load should be
distributed so that the tongue load
is 9 to 11 % of the total trailer
weight, not exceeding the maxi-
mum of 90 kg (200 lb.). Never load
the trailer with more weight in the
back than in the front. About 60 %
of the trailer load should be in the
front half of the trailer and the re-
maining 40 % in the rear.
