There is also important loading
information on the Certification

later in this section.

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

your vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine how
this reduces the available
cargo and luggage load
capacity of your vehicle.

This vehicle is neither designed
nor intended to tow a trailer.

Example 1

1.

Vehicle Capacity Weight
for Example 1 = 453 kg
(1,000 lbs).

2.

Subtract Occupant
Weight @ 68 kg (150 lbs)
× 2 = 136 kg (300 lbs).
