Tire and Loading Information Label

The label located on the driver's door pillar shows the original tire size, the recommended cold tire inflation pressure for your vehicle, the number of people that can be in your vehicle, and the vehicle's load capacity.

Vehicle Load Capacity

904 lbs. (410 kg)

Vehicle load capacity is the maximum combined weight of passengers and cargo. If your vehicle is equipped with a trailer, the total weight includes the trailer tongue load.

Seating Capacity

Total: 5 persons (front seat: 2 persons, rear seat: 3 persons)

Seating capacity is the maximum number of passengers, including the driver, that your vehicle can carry. However, the number of seating positions may be reduced depending on the weight of all passengers and the weight of cargo or towed load. Do not overload the vehicle, as there is a limit on the total weight or load capacity, including passengers and cargo, that the vehicle can carry.

Towing Capacity

We do not recommend using this vehicle to tow a trailer.

Load Capacity

The load capacity of your vehicle will increase or decrease depending on the weight and number of passengers, as well as the trailer tongue load if your vehicle is equipped with a trailer.

Steps to Determine the 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 certification label.

2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers who 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 number equals the available cargo and luggage capacity. For example, if the "XXX" value is 1400 lbs, and there are five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the available cargo and luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)

5. Determine the total weight of luggage and cargo to be loaded into the vehicle. This weight must not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated in step 4.

6. If your vehicle will tow a trailer, the load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Refer to this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage capacity of your vehicle.

WARNING

Do not overload the vehicle. There is a limit to the total weight or load capacity that the vehicle can carry, including passengers and cargo. Overloading may shorten the life of the vehicle. If the GVWR or GAWR is exceeded, vehicle parts may break, and this may change the handling of your vehicle. This may cause you to lose control and result in an accident.

Certification Label

The certification label is located on the driver's door pillar and shows the maximum permissible weight of the fully loaded vehicle. This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of the vehicle, all passengers, fuel, and cargo.

This label also shows the maximum weight that the front and rear axles can carry, called the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).

The total weight of the vehicle, including all passengers, accessories, cargo, and trailer tongue load, must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). To determine the actual loads on your front and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh station and weigh your vehicle. Be sure to distribute the load evenly on both sides of the centerline.

WARNING

Overloading

• Never exceed the GVWR for your vehicle, the GAWR for the front or rear axle, or the load capacity of the vehicle. Exceeding these values may adversely affect the handling and braking performance of your vehicle and may result in an accident.
• Do not overload your vehicle. Overloading the vehicle may cause heat buildup in the vehicle's tires and possible tire failure, increase stopping distances, and cause poor vehicle handling, all of which may result in an accident.

NOTICE

Overloading the vehicle may cause damage to it. Repairs are not covered by your warranty. Do not overload your vehicle.

WARNING

If you carry items in the vehicle (such as suitcases, tools, bags, or anything else), they move at the same speed as the vehicle. If you need to stop or turn suddenly, or if a collision occurs, the items will continue moving and may cause injury if they strike the driver or a passenger.

• Place items in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to distribute the weight evenly.
• Do not stack items, such as suitcases, inside the vehicle above the top of the seatbacks.
• Do not leave an unsecured child restraint in the vehicle.
• If you carry anything in the vehicle, secure it.
