CAUTION
Capacity and distribution
■
Do not exceed the maximum axle weight rating or the total vehicle weight rating.
●
Even if the total load of occupant' s weight and the cargo load is less than the total
●
load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. Improper loading may cause dete-
rioration of steering or braking control which may cause death or serious injury.
When loading cargo
■
Observe the following precautions:
Place the cargo so that its weight is distributed evenly between the front and rear
●
axles.
If loading long or wide cargo, never exceed the vehicle overall length or width.
●
(P. 756)
Before driving, make sure the cargo is securely fastened to the roof luggage car-
●
rier.
Loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier will make the center of gravity of the
●
vehicle higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or
abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover
due to failure to operate this vehicle correctly and result in death or serious injury.
If driving for a long distance, on rough roads, or at high speeds, stop the vehicle
●
now and then during the trip to make sure the cargo remains in its place.
Do not exceed 176lb. (80 kg) cargo weight on the roof luggage carrier.
