Chevrolet 1994 lumina Automobile User Manual


 
Loading
Your
Vehicle
Two labels on your vehicle show how
much weight it may properly carry. The
Tire-Loading Information label found on
the inside trunk lid tells you the proper
size, speed rating and recommended
inflation pressures for
the
tires on your
vehicle. It also gives you important
information about the number of people
that can be
in
your vehicle and the total
weight that you can carry. This weight is
called the Vehicle Capacity Weight and
includes
the
weight of all occupants,
cargo, and all nonfactory-installed
options.
The other label is the Certification label,
found on
the
rear edge of the driver’s
door. It tells you the gross weight capacity
of your vehicle, called the GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR
includes the weight of
the
vehicle, all
occupants, fuel and cargo. Never exceed
the GVWR for your vehicle, or the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for either
the front or rear axle.
And, if
you
do
have a heavy load, you
should spread
it
out. Don’t carry more
than
167
lbs.
(75
kg)
in
your trunk

going.
