WARNING
Improper use of cargo bed or
cage/frame can result
in severe injury or
death from loss of
control, overturn or
other accidents.
Maximum Load in Cargo Bed: 600 lbs (272 kg)
Maximum Vehicle Load: 906 lbs (411 kg)
• Load or trailer may affect handling and stability.
• Do not exceed the maximum load ratings for the
cargo bed , trailer tongue, or vehicle.
• Secure cargo so that it will not shift - a loose load
could change handling unexpectedly or be thrown
forward and strike occupants.
• Keep weight in the cargo bed centered side to side and
as low as possible. Top-heavy loads increase the risk of a
rollover.
• Do not tow or pull objects from any point other than
the trailer hitch bracket or winch (if installed).
• When loaded with cargo or towing a trailer:
• Reduce speed and allow more room to stop.
• Turn gradually and slowly.
• Avoid hills and rough terrain.
• Read Owner's Manual before loading, towing, or pulling
objects.
