2-9. Driving Tips

Before Driving
Driving on Uneven Road
Use care not to damage the vehicle’s underbody, bumpers or muf-
fler(s) when driving under the following conditions:
• Ascending or descending a slope with a sharp transition angle
• Ascending or descending a drivew ay or trailer ramp with a sharp
transition angle
Your vehicle’s suspension and underbody can be damaged if
driven on rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps at exces-
sive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when traveling on
rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps.
NOTICE
This vehicle is equipped with low profile tires allowing class- leading perfor-
mance and handling. As a result, the sidewall of the tires are very thin and
the tires and wheels can be damaged if driven through potholes or on
rough/uneven roads at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce spe ed
when traveling on rough/uneven roads or through potholes.

7-7. Tire Information (U.S.A.)
GCWR (Gross Combination Weight Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all cargo and passengers - that the
vehicle can handle without risk ing damage. The GCW must never
exceed the GCWR.
WARNING
■Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and do ing so will affect the drive system which
could result in vehicle damage.
■Overloaded Vehicle
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The results of overloading can
have serious consequences in terms of passenger safety. Too muc h
weight on a vehicle’s suspensi on system can cause spring or sho ck
absorber failure, brake failure, handling or steering problems, irregular
tire wear, tire failu re or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to drive and control. It als o
increases the distance required for stopping. In cases of serio us over-
loading, brakes can fail completely, particularly on steep grad es. The
load a tire will carry safely is a combination of the size of t he tire, its load
range, and corresponding inflation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always observe the vehicle’s wei ght rat-
ings from the vehicle’s Safety C ertification and Tire and Load Informa-
tion labels.
■Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating Limits
Exceeding the Safety Certification Label axle weight rating lim its is dan-
gerous and could result in death or serious injury as a result of substan-
dard vehicle handling, performance, engine, transmission and/or
structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle weight rating limits.
■Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR Specifications
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification l abel is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle rating limitation could result in a seri-
ous accident, injury, or damage to the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than
the originals because they may lower the vehicle’s GVWR and GAW R
limitations. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the ori ginals do
not increase the GVWR and GAWR limitations. Never exceed the
GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification label.

Customer Information and Reporting Safety Defects
Steps for Determining the Correct Load
Limit
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit-
(1) Locate the statement “The co mbined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s
placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers t hat
will be riding in your vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers fr om
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo an d lug-
gage load capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 140 0
lbs. and there will be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo and lu ggage load capacity is 650 lbs.
(1400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loa ded
on the vehicle. That weight may n ot safely exceed the available
cargo and luggage load capac ity calculated in Step 4.
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your tra iler will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine h ow
this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of y our
vehicle.
