COJ Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Vehicle identification data . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 451
Dimensions ........................... . 452
Unless otherwise specified, the technical data of the basic model apply. The values quoted here may differ if additional equipment is fitted, for differ-ent models, for special vehicles or if country-specif-ic equipment is fitted. All data in the official vehicle documents take precedence over these data.
Engine
The vehicle data sticker and the official vehicle documents show which engine is installed in your vehicle.
Weight
The values for the kerb weight in the following ta-bles apply for the road-ready vehicle with driver (75 kg), service fluids including fuel tank carrying 90% of its capacity and, if applicable, toolkit and spare tyre =>&.Additional equipment and retrofit-ted accessories increase the stated kerb weight and reduce the maximum permitted load accord-ingly.
The load comprises the weights of the following:
• Passengers
• Allluggage
• Roof load including the mounts or roof bars and the load carrier system
• Drawbar load when towing a trailer
Performance figures
The performance figures were measured without equipment which may influence performance, such as a roof carrier or mud flaps.
Gross combination weight rating
The gross combination weight ratings listed are on-ly applicable for altitudes up to 1 ,000 m above sea level. The maximum weight of the car and trailer must be reduced by approximately 10% for every further 1 ,000 m in altitude.

,A WARNING
Exceeding the maximum permissible weights, payload, dimensions, vehicle speed and axle weight rating could cause damage to the vehicle, accidents and serious Injuries.
• Do not exceed the permitted weights, loads, dimensions and maximum speeds.
• The actual axle loads must never exceed the maximum permissible axle loads.
• The payload and the distribution of the load In the vehicle have an effect on the driv-ing response and braking distance of the ve-hicle. Adjust your speed accordingly.
,A WARNING
Accidents and severe injuries can occur if the maximum permitted gross combination weight Is exceeded.
• Never exceed the specified gross combi-nation weight rating.
The payload should be distributed as evenly as possible in the vehicle. When transporting heavy objects in the luggage compartment, they should be placed either in front of or over the rear axle in order to minimise the effect on the vehicle's handling.
