Driving your vehicle
Tyre Label
OMQ4080004R
The Certification/Tyre label is found
on the front edge of the RH (or LH)
"B" pillar. The label shows the size of
your original tyres and inflation
pressures needed to obtain the
gross weight capacity of your vehi-
cle.
This is called the GVWR (Gross Vehi-
cle Weight Rating). The GVWR
includes the weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel and cargo. The Cer-
tification/Tyre label also tells you
the maximum weights for the front
and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR).
Never exceed the GVWR for your
vehicle, or the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for either the front
or rear axle. And, if you do have a
heavy load, you should spread it out.
NOTICE
Your warranty does not cover
parts or components that fail
because of overloading.
CAUTION
Do not load your vehicle any
heavier than the GVWR or the
maximum front and rear GAWRs.
If you do, change to the vehicle
may occur, or it can change the
way your vehicle handles. These
could cause you to lose control.
Also, overloading can shorten the
life of your vehicle.
