cated on the F.M.V.S.S. certification
label. Do not load your vehicle be-
yond this capacity. Overloading your
vehicle may result in reduced tire life,
unsafe operating conditions due to
premature tire failure, or unfavorable
handling characteristics and could
also lead to a serious accident. Load-
ing beyond the specified capacity
may also result in failure of other
vehicle components.
cBefore taking a long trip, or when-
ever you heavily load your vehicle,use a tire pressure gauge to ensure
that the tire pressure is at the speci-
fied level.
cDo not drive your vehicle over 85
