WARNING
Improper loading or towing can increase
the risk of loss of control, an overturn, or
other accident:
 Keep weight in the cargo bed centered
side to side, and as low and as far for-
ward as possible. Top-heavy loads in-
crease the risk of overturn. Be sure
cargo is secured — a loose load could
change handling unexpectedly or strike
occupants.
 Be sure to tie down cargo in the trailer
securely — a shifting load can cause an
accident.
 Make sure the load does not interfere
with your control or ability to see where
you are going.
 Do not exceed the Maximum Load Limits
for each section of the vehicle or the
Maximum Vehicle Load.
