: D = Additional weight of people
*5
: E = Available cargo and luggage load
As shown in the example above, if the
number of occupants increases, the
cargo and luggage load will be
reduced by an amount that equals the
increased weight due to the additional
occupants.
In other words, if an increase in the
number of occupants causes an excess
of the total load capacity (combined
weight of occupants plus cargo and
luggage load), you must reduce the
cargo and luggage on your vehicle.
