(Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity) - (Total weight of occupants)Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit -(1) Locate the statement "The combine d weight of occupants and cargoshould never exceed XXX kg or X XX lbs." on your vehicle's placard.(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers thatwill be riding in your vehicle. (3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers fromXXX kg or XXX lbs.(4) The resulting figure equals the av ailable amount of cargo and lug-gage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will befive 150 lb passengers in your vehi cle, the amount of available cargoand luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 × 150) = 650lbs.)(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loadedon the vehicle.
