The Certification Label, found on the inside pillar of the driver’s door,

lists several important vehicle weight rating limitations. Before adding

any additional equipment, refer to these limitations. If you are adding

weight to your vehicle, always ensure that the weight of occupants, cargo

and equipment being carried is within the weight limitations that have

been established for your vehicle including both gross vehicle weight and

front and rear gross axle weight rating limits. Under no circumstance

should these limitations be exceeded.

Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation could result in

serious damage to the vehicle loss of vehicle control, vehicle

rollover, and/or personal injury.

The weight of your loaded trailer should not exceed 907 kg (2,000 lbs).

The GCW of your vehicle and trailer should not exceed 2,993 kg

(6,600 lbs).

TRAILER TOWING

Your vehicle is classified as a light duty towing vehicle. Do not tow a

trailer until your vehicle has been driven at least 3,200 km (2,000 miles).

Towing a trailer places an additional load on your vehicle’s engine,

transmission, brakes, tires and suspension. Inspect these components

carefully after towing.

Your loaded trailer should weigh no more than 907 kg (2,000 lbs.). Do

not exceed the GVWR specified on the certification label.

Towing trailers beyond the maximum recommended gross trailer

weight exceeds the limit of the vehicle and could result in

engine damage, transmission damage, structural damage, loss of vehicle

control, vehicle rollover and personal injury.

Preparing to tow

Use the proper equipment for towing a trailer and make sure it is

properly attached to your vehicle. See your dealer or a reliable trailer

dealer if you require assistance.

Hitches

Do not use hitches that clamp onto the vehicle bumper. Use a load

carrying hitch. You must distribute the load in your trailer so that

10–15% of the total weight of the trailer is on the tongue.
