WEIGHTS AND CARGO CAPACITY

The safety of your travel will be affected by your understanding of weights and cargo
distribution for your motorhome. Read, understand and follow all information related to
the weight of your motorhome. We provide the following labels on your motorhome
(copies are printed here):
• The "Federal Certification"
(Fig. 1) label is affixed to the
post of the driver's door. It
lists the vehicle weights as
well as the tire and axle
rating information.
• The "Motorhome Weight
Information" (Fig. 2) label is
typically located inside the
base kitchen cupboard on the
cabinet door. This label is
critical in understanding
motorhome weight
definitions. Please read,
understand and follow all of
these definitions. In addition
to the label information, the
GAWR is the maximum
weight rating that
components of each axle are
designed to support (i.e.
tires, brakes, springs, axle).
Information that seems
unclear should be discussed
with your independent,
authorized dealer.
The weights of your unit are the
model's
dry
weights
standard equipment. It is critical
that you do not exceed the
gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR) of your motorhome.
As you begin to load your
personal cargo, remember that
what you load as well as options
that have been added will affect
the overall weight. Never exceed
the gross vehicle weight rating
of your unit.
