injury, passengers must not be seated
in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo
space is intended for load carrying
purposes only, not for passengers,
who should sit in seats and use seat
belts.
Vehicle Load Carrying Capacity
The load carrying capacity of your
vehicle is shown on the vehicle loading
information label positioned on the
driver's side door pillar.
The information indicated on the label
concerns passengers and luggage
loading operations.
Do not exceed the specified Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the
46
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR),
both front and rear.
The GVWR is the total allowable
weight of your vehicle. This includes
driver, passengers, and cargo.
The total load must be limited so that
you do not exceed the GVWR indicated
on the label.
WARNING!
•
Improper weight distribution can
have an adverse effect on the way
the vehicle steers, handles and the
way the brakes operate.
•
Never drive with the liftgate
open. Exhaust gases can enter the
passenger compartment.

Do not arrange any luggage on

luggage could not only impair
driver's view but also, in case of
collision or unexpected stop, it could
cause injury to all occupants.
The trunk is the most suitable place to

load of 260 lb (120 kg).
Apart from cargo area cover, the

vertical rolling Cargo Net, to be used
to separate the cargo area from the
passenger area.
