Chevrolet 2009 Colorado Automobile User Manual


 
Tire and Loading Information Label
A vehicle specific Tire and Loading
Information label is attached to the vehicle’s
center pillar (B-pillar). With the driver’s door
open, you will find the label attached below the
door latch post. Vehicle’s without a center pillar,
like extended cab models, will have the Tire and
Loading Information label attached to the driver’s
side extended cab door, above the door latch post.
The Tire and Loading Information label shows the
number of occupant seating positions (A), and the
maximum vehicle capacity weight (B) in kilograms
and pounds.
The Tire and Loading Information label also shows
the size of the original equipment tires (C) and the
recommended cold tire inflation pressures (D).
For more information on tires and inflation see
Tires on page 5-53 and Inflation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-60.
There is also important information on the
Certification/Tire label. It tells you the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the front and rear
axles. See “Certification/Tire Label” later in this
section.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement “The combined weight
of occupants and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your vehicle’s placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver
and passengers that will be riding in your
vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver
and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
