Wheel s
Bead separation
means a breakdown of the bond
between components in the bead .
Cord
means the strands forming the
plies in the tire.
Cold tire inflation pressure
means the tire pressure recom­
mended by the vehicle manufac­
turer for a tire of a designated
size that has not been driven for more than a couple of miles (kilo­
meters) at low speeds in the
three hour period before the tire
pressure is measured or adjusted.
Curb weight
means the weight of a motor ve­
hicle with standard equipment in­
cluding the maximum capacity of
fuel, oil, and coolant, air condi­
tioning and additional weight of
optional equipment.
E x tra load tire
means a tire designed to operate
at higher loads and at higher in­
flation pressures than the corre­ sponding standard tire . Extra load
tires may be identified as "XL",
"xl", "EXTRA LOAD", or "RF" on
the sidewal l.

Gross Axle Weight Rating
("GAWR ")
means the load-carrying capacity
of a single axle system, measured
at the tire -ground interfaces .
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(" GVWR ")
means the maximum total loaded
weight of the vehicle .
Groove
means the space between two ad­
jacent tread ribs .
Load rating (code )
means the maximum load that a
tire is rated to carry for a given in ­
flation pressure. You may not find
this information on all tires be­
cause it is not required by law.
Ma ximum load rating
means the load rating for a tire at
the maximum permissible infla­ tion pressure for that tire.
Ma ximum loaded vehicle
weight
means the sum of :
(a) Curb weight
(b) Accessory weight
(c) Vehicle capacity weight, and
(d) Production options we ight

Tires and vehicle load limits
There are limits to the amount of
load or weight that any vehicle
and any tire can carry. A vehicle
that is overloaded will not handle
well and is more difficult to stop. Overloading can not only lead to
loss of vehicle control, but can al­
so damage important parts of the
vehicle and can lead to sudden

tire failure, including a blowout
and sudden deflation that can
cause the vehicle to crash.
Your safety and that of your pas­
sengers also depends on making
sure that load limits are not ex­
ceeded. Vehicle load includes ev­
erybody and everything in and on
the vehicle. These load limits are
technically referred to as the vehi­ cle's
Gross Vehicle Weight Rat­
ing
("GVWR").
The "GVWR" includes the weight of the basic vehicle, all factory in­
stalled accessories, a full tank of
fuel, oil, coolant and other fluids ..

Emergency situations
If you must lift your vehicle with a floor jack to
work underneath, be sure the vehicle is safely
supported on stands intended for this purpose .
Front lifting point
T he lift ing po int is loc ated on the floo r pan re in ­
for cement about at the same leve l as t he jack
mounting po int r=;,
fig. 279. Do not lift the veh i­
cle at the vertical sill re inforcement.
Rear lifting point
T he lift ing po int is loca ted on the vert ica l re in­
for cement of the lower sill fo r t he on b oard ja ck
r=:> fig. 280 .
Lifting with vehicle jack
Refer to r=;, page 347.
A WARNING
- To reduce the risk of ser io us injury and vehi­
cl e d amage.
- Always lift t he ve hicle only at the special
wo rkshop ho ist and floo r jack lift po ints il­
lustrated
r=;, fig . 279 a nd r=;, fig. 280.
- Fa ilure to lift the vehicle at these poin ts
could cause the vehicle to tilt or fa ll from
a lift if there is a change in vehicle weight
distr ibut io n and balance. This might hap­
pen, for exam ple, when heavy co mpo­
n e nts s uch as the engine b lock or tra ns­
mi ssio n are removed.
- When removing heavy components like
th ese, a nchor vehicle to hoist o r add cor re ­
s pon ding weigh ts t o ma in ta in t he ce nte r o f
gr avit y. Ot herwise, t he ve hicl e migh t tilt or
s lip
off the hoist, causing ser ious perso na l
injury .
(D Note
- Be awa re o f th e followi ng poi nts before li ft­
in g th e ve hicle:
-The vehicle should never be lifted or
jacked up from underneath the engine oil
pan, the transmiss ion housing, the front
or rear axle or the body side members .
This could lead to serious damage.
- To avoid damage to the underbody or
chassis frame, a rubber pad must be in-
360
serted between the floor jack and the lift
points.
- Before driving over a workshop hoist ,
check that the vehicle weight does not
exceed the permissible lifting capacity of
the hoist.
- Before driving over a workshop hoist , en­
sure that there is sufficient clearance be­
tween the hoist and low parts of the ve­
hicle .

Tech nical data
Gross Axle Weight Rating
The G ross Ax le We ight Rating is the max imum
load that can be applied at each axle of the vehi ­
cle ¢& .
Vehicle capacity weight The vehicle capacity we ight (max. load) is l isted
on the front end of the dr iver's door.
_& WARNING
- T he ac tual Gross Axle Weight Rating a t the
front and rear axles sho uld not exceed the
permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Veh icle Weight
Rating.
- Exceeding pe rmissible weight ratings can
result in ve hicle damage, acc idents and per­
sonal injury.
{[) Note
- The vehicle capacity weight figures app ly
when the load is distributed eve nly in the
vehicle (passengers and luggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage
compartment, carry the load as near to the
r ear axle as possible so that the vehicle's
handling is not impaired.
- Do not exceed the maximum permissible
axle loads or the maximum gross vehicle
weight. Always remember tha t the vehicle's
h andling w ill be affe cted by the ext ra load.
T herefo re, adjust yo ur sp eed a ccording ly.
- Always obse rve loca l reg ulations.

Operating your vehicle
outside the U.S.A. or
Canada
Government reg ulations in the Un ited States and
Canada require that automobiles meet specific
emission regulations and safety standards.
Therefore, vehicles built for the U .S.A. and Cana­
da differ from vehicles sold in other countries.
I f you p lan to take your vehicle outside the conti­
nenta l limits of the United States or Canada,
there is the poss ibility that:
- u nleaded fue ls for vehicles with cata lytic con­
verter may not be available;
- fuel may have a considerably lower octane rat­
i ng. Imprope r fuel may ca use engine damage;
- service may be inadequate due to lack of p roper
service facilities, tools or testing eq uipment;
- r eplacement parts may not be readily ava ilable.
- Navigation systems for veh icles built for the
U .S .A . and Canada will not necessa rily work in
E urope, and may not wo rk in other countries
outside of North Amer ica.
