Refer to the "LOADING INFORMATION" chapter of this manual for guidelines to assist with loading. This vehicle is not designed to carry passengers in the cargo bed. Installing additional passenger seating or carrying passengers in the cargo bed can case changes in vehicle handling. Reduce speed when carrying cargo or pulling a trailer and allow for more braking distance. Be sure to attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Don't attach a trailer to any other location than the bracket. Also, don't overload a trailer. Maximum Trailer Weight (Trailer plus cargo weight) 590 kg (1 300 lb) Do not load more than 40 kg (88 lb) tongue weight on the trailer hitch bracket.

Do not install seating or carry passengers in the cargo bed. Cargo should be securely anchored. Make sure the cargo will not move around while the vehicle is moving.
