Label Example

A vehicle-specific Tire and
Loading Information label is
attached to the vehicle's center
pillar (B-pillar). The Tire and
Loading Information label shows
the number of occupant seating
positions (1), and the maximum
vehicle capacity weight (2) in
kilograms and pounds.

The Tire and Loading
Information label also shows the
tire size of the original

equipment tires (3) and the

Steps for Determining Correct

Load Limit

1.

Locate the statement "The
combined 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 that will be
riding in your vehicle.

3.

Subtract the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers from XXX kg or
XXX lbs.

4.

The resulting figure equals
the available amount of
cargo and luggage load
capacity. For example, if the
"XXX" amount equals
1400 lbs. and there will be
five 150 lb passengers in
your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage
load capacity is 650 lbs.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) =
650 lbs.)

5.

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 capacity
calculated in Step 4.

6.

If your vehicle will be towing
a trailer, load from your
trailer will be transferred to
