Technical data
Vehicle documents,
identification plate
The technical data is determined in
accordance with European Community
standards. We reserve the right to make
modifications. Specifications in the vehicle
documents always have priority over those
given in this manual.
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is
on the vehicle identification plate,
attached to the top of the front panel
support, visible when the bonnet is open.
The vehicle identification plate may also
list, in kilograms, the Gross Vehicle Weight
(GVW), the Gross Train Weight (GTW) and
the maximum front and rear axle loads
respectively. Observe these limits when
using the full load or towing capacity of
your vehicle. Information on identification plate

Weights, payload and roof load
The payload is the difference between the
permissible Gross Vehicle Weight (see
vehicle identification plate on page 215)
and the EC kerb weight.
To calculate the EC kerb weight, enter the
data from your vehicle below:
is the EC kerb weight.
Optional equipmen t and accessories
increase the kerb weight and in some cases
also the permissible Gross Vehicle Weight,
which means that the payload will also
change slightly.
Note the weights given on the vehicle
identification plate. The combined total of front and rear axle
loads must not exceed the permissible
Gross Vehicle Weight. For example, if the
front axle load is being fully utilized, the
rear axle can only bear a load that is equal
to the Gross Vehicle Weight minus the front
axle load.
See the vehicle identi
fication plate on
page 215 or the vehicle documents for
permissible axle loads. Roof load
The maximum permissible roof load
is 100 kg.
The roof load is the combined weight of the
roof rack and the load.
