TIRE INFORMATION
LOADING THE VEHICLE
WARNING: Overloading the vehicle
will have an adverse effect on
braking and handling characteristics, which
could compromise your safety or damage
the vehicle.
It is important to understand how much
weight your Revero can safely carry. This
weight is called the vehicle capacity weight
and includes the weight of all occupants,
cargo and any additional equipment fitted
to the vehicle since it was manufactured.
There are two labels affixed to your Revero
that state how much weight your vehicle
can safely carry:
1. Tire and loading information label.
2. Vehicle certification label.
With the driver’s door open, these labels
are located on the center door post.
TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION
LABEL / VEHICLE PLACARD
The tire and loading information label
contains the following information:
• The maximum number of occupant
seating positions.
• The maximum vehicle capacity weight in
kilograms (kg) and pounds (lbs).
• The size of the tires originally installed
on the vehicle.
• The cold inflation pressures for the
original specification of front and rear
tires.
The stated tire pressures provide optimum
ride and handling characteristics for all
normal operating conditions.
Note: This label must not be changed, even
if different wheels are installed at a later
stage.
VEHICLE CERTIFICATION LABEL
CAUTION: To prevent serious
damage to the vehicle, never load the
vehicle so that it is heavier than the GVWR
or exceed the individual GAWR weights.
Heavy loads should be evenly distributed
throughout the vehicle.
The vehicle certification label contains the
following information:
• GVWR - Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
The GVWR is the maximum allowable
total mass of the vehicle. This is
calculated as the weight of the vehicle,
all passengers, fuel and cargo.
• GAWR FR and GAWR RR - Gross Axle
Weight Rating for the front and rear
axles.
The GAWR is the maximum distributed
weight that may be supported by an
axle on the vehicle.
