INFORMATION
Two labels on your vehicle show how much weight it
may properly carry. The Tire-Loading Information label
found on the rear edge of the driver's door tells you the
proper size, speed rating and recommended inflation
pressure for the tires on your vehicle. It also gives you
important information about the number of people that
can be in your vehicle and the total weight that you can
carry. This weight is called the Vehicle Capacity Weight
and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo, and all
nonfactory-installed options.

The other label is the Certification label, found on the rear
edge of the driver's door. It tells you the gross weight
capacity of your vehicle, called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of the
vehicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo. Never exceed the
GVWR for your vehicle, or the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) for either the front of rear axle.
And, if you do have a heavy load, you should spread it
out. Don't carry more than 176 lbs. (80 kg) in
your trunk.
The electronic level control automatically keeps the rear
of the vehicle level as you load or unload your vehicle.
