Determine
the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicl e.
The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capaci ty. 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 capaci ty
calc ulated in step 4.
To
determine the correct cargo and
luggage load limit:
If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will
be tran sferred to your vehicle.
Consult this manual to determine
how this reduces the available
cargo and luggage load capacity of
yourvehicle(seepage ).
In addition, the total weight of the
vehicle, all occupants, accessories,
cargo, and trailer tongue load must
not exceed the gross vehicle weight
rating (GVWR) or the gross axle
weight rating (GAWR). Both are on
a label on the driver’s doorjamb.
The maximum load f or your vehicle
is 1,322 lbs (600 kg). This f igure
includes the total weight of all
occupants, cargo, and accessories,
and the tongue load if you are towing
a trailer.
Locate the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 1,322
lbs ’’ on your vehicle’s placard.
(The placard is driver’s doorjamb.)
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers f rom
For example, if the maximum load
is 1,322 lbs and there will be eight
150 lb. passengers in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo and
luggage load capacity is 122 lbs.
(1,322 750 (8 150) = 122 lbs.)
