Certification label
385 kg
The certification label is located on the
(849 lbs.)
driver's door sill at the center pillar.
This label shows the maximum allowable
340 kg
weight of the fully loaded vehicle. This is
(750 lbs.)
called the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating). The GVWR includes the weight
45 kg
of the vehicle, all occupants and cargo.
(99 lbs.)
This label also tells you the maximum
weight that can be supported by the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR).
To find out the actual loads on your front
and rear axles, you need to go to a
weigh station and weigh your vehicle.
Your dealer can help you with this. Be
sure to spread out your load equally on
both sides of the centerline.
WARNING
Over loading
Never exceed the GVWR for your vehi-
cle, the GAWR for either the front or rear
axle and vehicle capacity weight.
Total
Exceeding these ratings can affect your
385 kg
vehicle's handling and braking ability.
