202 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Subtract the combined weight
3.
of the driver and passengers
from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
The resulting figure equals the
4.
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.)
Determine the combined weight
5.
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.
If your vehicle will be towing a
6.
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.
See Trailer Towing 0 277 for
important information on towing
a trailer, towing safety rules and
trailering tips.
