 Vehicle maximum load on the
tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the maximum
loaded vehicle weight and dividing
by two.
 Vehicle normal load on the tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the curb weight,
accessory weight, and normal occu-
pant weight (distributed in accor-
dance with Table 1 that is appended
to the end of this section) and
dividing by 2.
 Wheel-holding fixture

Tire Care – Maintenance and
Safety PracticesCheck on a daily basis that the
tires are free from serious damage,
nails, and stones. At the same time,
check the tires for abnormal wear.
 Inspect the tire tread regularly
and replace the tires before their
tread wear indicators become
visible. When a tire’s tread wear
indicator becomes visible, the tire is
worn beyond the acceptable limit
and must be replaced immediately.
With a tire in this condition, driving
at even low speeds in wet weather
can cause the vehicle to hydro-
plane. Possible resulting loss of
vehicle control can lead to an acci-
dent.
 To maximize the life of each tire
and ensure that the tires wear
uniformly, it is best to rotate the tires
every 6,000 miles (10,000 km). For
information about tire rotation, refer
to
"Rotational Direction of Tires" 
P364.
Replace any damaged or unevenly
worn tire at the time of rotation. After
tire rotation, adjust the tire pres-

are correctly tightened. For informa-
tion about the tightening torque and
tightening sequence for the wheel
nuts, refer to
"Flat Tires" 
P303.
■
Vehicle Load Limit – How to
Determine
The load capacity of your vehicle is
determined by weight, not by avail-
able cargo space. The load limit of
your vehicle is shown on the vehicle
placard attached to the driver’s side
B-pillar. Locate the statement “
The
combined weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs
”
on your vehicle’s placard.
The vehicle placard also shows
seating capacity of your vehicle.
The total load capacity includes the
total weight of driver and all passen-
gers and their belongings, any
cargo, any optional equipment such
as a trailer hitch, roof rack or bike
carrier, etc., and the tongue load of
a trailer. Therefore cargo capacity
can be calculated by the following
method. Cargo capacity = Load limit
− (total
weight of occupants + total weight of
optional equipment)
For information about vehicle
loading, refer to
"Loading Your Vehicle"

P297.▼
Calculating total and load
capacities varying seating
configurations
Calculate the available load
capacity as shown in the following
examples:
Example 1A Vehicle capacity weight of the
vehicle is 800 lbs (363 kg), which is
indicated on the vehicle placard with
the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed 363 kg or 800
lbs”.
For example, if the vehicle has one
occupant weighing 154 lbs (70 kg)
CAUTION
Your vehicle is neither
designed nor intended to be
used for trailer towing. There-
fore, never tow a trailer with
your vehicle.
