x 30) = 1400 - 1100 - 150 = 150 lb. Yes, you have enough load

capacity in your vehicle to transport four friends and your golf bags.

In metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg - (5 x 99 kg) - (5 x

13.5 kg) = 635 - 495 - 67.5 = 72.5 kg.

• Suppose your vehicle has a 1400 lb. (635 kg) cargo and luggage

capacity. You and one of your friends decide to pick up cement from

the local home improvement store to finish that patio you have been

planning for the past 2 years. Measuring the inside of the vehicle with

the rear seat folded down, you have room for 12-100 lb. (45 kg) bags

of cement. Do you have enough load capacity to transport the cement

to your home? If you and your friend each weigh 220 lb. (99 kg), the

calculation would be: 1400 - (2 x 220) - (12 x 100) = 1400 - 440 -

1200 = - 240 lb. No, you do not have enough cargo capacity to carry

that much weight. In metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg -

(2 x 99 kg) - (12 x 45 kg) = 635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kg. You will need

to reduce the load weight by at least 240 lb. (104 kg). If you remove

3-100 lb. (45 kg) cement bags, then the load calculation would be:

1400 - (2 x 220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 - 900 = 60 lb. Now you have

the load capacity to transport the cement and your friend home. In

metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg - (2 x 99 kg) - (9 x

45 kg) = 635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kg.

The above calculations also assume that the loads are positioned in your

vehicle in a manner that does not overload the Front or the Rear Gross

Axle Weight Rating specified for your vehicle on the Safety Compliance

Certification Label. The label shall be affixed to either the door hinge

pillar, door-latch post, or the door edge that meets the door-latch post,

next to the driver’s seating position.

Special Loading Instructions for Owners of Pick-up Trucks and

Utility-type Vehicles

WARNING: Loaded vehicles may handle differently than

unloaded vehicles. Extra precautions, such as slower speeds and

increased stopping distance, should be taken when driving a heavily

loaded vehicle.

Your vehicle can haul more cargo and people than most passenger cars.

Depending upon the type and placement of the load, hauling cargo and

people may raise the center of gravity of the vehicle.
