1.5 psi).
The following tire pressure values apply to vehicles with:
a gross vehicle weight of 6,724 lbs (3.05 t)

WARNING
Overloaded tires can overheat, causing a
blowout. Overloaded tires can also impair the
steering and driving characteristics and lead
to brake failure. There is a risk of accident.
Observe the load rating of the tires. The load
rating must be at least half of the GAWR of
your vehicle. Never overload the tires by
exceeding the maximum load.

the B-pillar, driver's side

Two instruction labels on your vehicle show the
maximum possible load.
(1) Tire and Loading Information placard : is
on the B-pillar on the driver's side. Tire and
Loading Information placard : shows the
permissible number of occupants and the
maximum permissible load of the vehicle. It
also contains details of the tire sizes and
corresponding pressures for tires mounted
at the factory.
(2) The vehicle identification plate is on the
B-pillar on the driver's side. The vehicle
identification plate informs you of the per-
missible gross weight. It is made up of the
vehicle weight, all vehicle occupants, the
fuel and the cargo. You can also find infor-
mation about the maximum Gross Axle
Weight Rating on the front and rear axle.
The maximum gross axle weight rating is
the maximum weight that can be carried by
one axle (front or rear axle). Do not exceed
the permissible gross weight or the maxi-
mum gross axle weight rating for the front
or rear axle.
