Advanced automobile
manufacturing tech-
niques permit you to operate your new vehi- cle without requiring a long break-in periodof low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor- mance and economy of your vehicle byobserving the following precautions during the first 300 miles (500 km). Drive your vehicle at m
oderate speeds during
the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden accelerati
on, prolonged high-
speed driving and sudden braking. These actions would have a detrimental effect onthe engine and lead to increased fuel and oil consumption; th
is could ultimately
result in the malfunction of engine com-ponents. Be particularly careful to avoid full acceleration while in low shift posi- tion (low gears). Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10.) Refrain from towing a trailer or other vehicle (Refer to “T
railer towing” on page
6-11).

 Vehicle maximum load on the tire: load on an individual tire that is determined bydistributing to each axle its share of the maximum loaded vehicle weight and dividing by two. Vehicle normal load on the tire: load on an individual tire that is determined by dis- tributing to each axle its share of the curbweight, accessory weight, and normal occupant weight and dividing by two.  Maximum loaded vehicle weight: the sum of - (a) Curb weight;(b) Accessory weight; (c) Vehicle capacity weight; and (d) Production options weight. Curb weight: the weight of a motor vehi- cle with standard e
quipment including the
maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and cool-ant.  Accessory weight: the combined weight (in excess of those
standard items which
may be replaced) of automatic transmis- sion, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seats, radio, and heater,to the extent that these items are available as factory- installed equipment (whether installed or not). Vehicle capacity weight: the rated cargo and luggage load plus 150 lbs (68 kg) * times the vehicle’s
designated seating
capacity.
 Production options weight: the combined weight of those installed regular produc-tion options weighing over 5 lbs (2.3 kg) in excess of those standard items which they replace, not prev
iously considered in
curb weight or accessory weight, includ- ing heavy duty brakes,
ride levelers, roof
rack, heavy duty battery, and special trim. Normal occupant weight: 150 lbs (68 kg) * times the number of
specified occupants
(3 in the case of your vehicle)  Occupant distribution:
Occupant distribu-
tion within the passenger compartment (Inyour vehicle the distribution is 2 in front, 1 in second row seat)

The tire and loading information placard is located on the inside sill of the driver’s door.
This placard shows the maximum number of occupants permitted to
ride in your vehicle as
well as “the combined
weight of occupants
and cargo” (A), which
is called the vehicle
capacity weight. The weight of any non-fac-tory installed options, as well as the tongue weight of a trailer being towed and roof load is included in the defi
nition of “cargo” when
determining the vehicle
capacity weight. This
placard also tells you the size and recom- mended inflation pressure for the originalequipment tires on your vehicle. For more information, refer to
“Tires” on page 9-14.
* :150 lbs (68 kg) is th
e weight of one per-
son as defined by U.S.A. and Canadian regulations.

1.Locate the statement “The com- bined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’splacard.2.Determine the combined weightof the driver and passengers thatwill be riding in your vehicle.3.Subtract the combined weight ofthe driver and passengers fromXXX kg or XXX lbs.4.The resulting figure equals theavailable amount of cargo andluggage load capacity. For exam- ple, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five150 lbs. passengers in your vehi- cle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load
capacity is 650
lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650lbs.)
5.Determine the combined weightof luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the availablecargo and luggage load capacity calculated 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 determinehow this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.

To determine the cargo load capacity for your vehicle, subtract the
weight of all vehicle
occupants from the vehi
cle capacity weight.
For additional information, if needed, refer to “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit” on page 6-8. DO NOT USE the Gross Vehicle Weight Rat- ing and Gross Axle Weight Rating numberslisted on the safety certification label located on the inside sill of the driver’s door as the guide for passengers and/or cargo weight.(Except for Vehicles for Mexico)

Cargo loads Cargo load precautions
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, the combined weights of the driver,passengers and cargo and must neverexceed the vehicle capacity weight. Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight will adversely affect ve
hicle performance,
including handling and braking, and may cause an accident. Do not load cargo or luggage higher than the top of the seatback. Be sure that yourcargo or luggage cann
ot move when your
vehicle is in motion. Having either the re
ar view blocked, or
your cargo being thrown
inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a serious accident or
injury or death.
Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weightevenly.
Loading cargo on the roof
WA R N I N G Weight placed on the
roof of the vehicle
will raise the vehicle’
s center of gravity
and adversely affect
its handling charac-
teristics. As a result, driving errors oremergency maneuvers could lead to a loss of control and result in an accident. Drive slowly and avoid excessive maneuverssuch as sudden brak
ing or quick turning.
Make sure that the
weight of luggage and
the roof carrier do not exceed the maxi-mum roof load, 110 lb (50 kg). If the maxi-mum roof load is ex
ceeded, this could
cause damage to the ve
hicle or result in an
accident. The total weight of all occupants and lug- gage, including your r
oof load, must not
exceed the vehicle capacity weight. For more information, refer to “Tire and load- ing information placard” on page 11-3 Roof load is determined by adding the weight of the roof
carrier and the weight
of the luggage placed
on the roof carrier.
For additional information, refer to “Maximum roof load” on page 11-5.CAUTION Do not load luggage directly onto the roof. Use a roof carrier that properly fits your vehicle. For installation, refer to the instruction man-ual provided with the roof carrier. Place the luggage on the carrier so that its weight is distri
buted evenly with the heaviest
items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carrier.WA R N I N G

Towing a trailer will adversely affect your vehicle’s handling, performance, braking, durability and driving economy (fuel con-sumption, etc.). If you do tow a trailer
with this vehicle, be
sure to use proper e
quipment and cautious
steering and braking for safe driving. Never exceed the vehi
cle capacity weight,
maximum trailer weight (A), maximum
 Before driving and after traveling a short dis- tance, always check the load to make sure itis securely fastened to the roof carrier.Stop the vehicle periodi
cally and check that
the load remains secure. If the load is not secure, it could fall from the vehicle anddamage your vehicle,
another vehicle or cre-
ate a road hazard.NOTE
 To prevent wind noise or reduction in gas mileage, remove the roof carrier when not in use.  Before using an automatic car wash, check with the attendant to determine if the roofcarrier should be removed.

tongue weight (B) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The vehicle capacity weight is printed on the tire and loading inform
ation placard as “com-
bined weight of oc
cupants and cargo”.
The weight includes the weight of all occu- pants and the total weight it can carry.For more information, refer to “Tire and load- ing information plac
ard” on page 6-7.
Recommendations for towing up to this limit are as follows.
The tongue weight of any trailer is important because it affects the vehicle capacity weight. The vehicle capacity weight includes anycargo you may carry, and the people who will be riding in the vehicl
e. If you will tow a
trailer, you must include the tongue weight ofthe trailer in your calc
ulation of the vehicle
capacity weight. For more information regarding vehicle capa
city weight, refer to
“Tire and loading information placard” on
page 6-7. Do not exceed the maximum tongue weightfor your vehicle. After you’ve loaded your trailer, weigh the trailer and then the to
ngue, separately, to see
if the weights are proper. Keep the trailer tongue load at 10% of the loaded trailer weight fo
r dead weight hitches.
Tongue loads can be adjusted by proper dis- tribution of the load in the trailer. This can be checked by separately weighing the loadedtrailer and then the tongue. The GAWRs are printed on the certification label which is riveted on the door sill on the driver’s side. Refer to “Vehicle labeling” on page 11-2.
