Tire and Loading Information
Label
Label Example
A vehicle-specific Tire and
Loading Information label is
attached to the vehicle's center
pillar (B-pillar). The Tire and
Loading Information label shows
the number of occupant seating
positions (1), and the maximum
vehicle capacity weight (2) in
kilograms and pounds.
The Tire and Loading
Information label also shows the
tire size of the original
equipment tires (3) and the
recommended cold tire inflation
pressures (4). For more
information on tires and inflation
see Tires 0 262 and Tire
Pressure 0 269.
There is also important loading
information on the Certification
label. It may show the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
and the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for the front and
rear axle. See Certification
Label later in this section.
Steps for Determining Correct
Load Limit
Locate the statement "The
1.
combined weight of
occupants and cargo should
never exceed XXX kg or
XXX lbs." on your vehicle s
placard.
Determine the combined
2.
weight of the driver and
passengers that will be
riding in your vehicle.
Driving and Operating
Subtract the combined
3.
weight of the driver and
passengers from XXX kg or
XXX lbs.
The resulting figure equals
4.
the 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
5.
weight 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.
