Nissan Sentra Owners Manual: Vehicle load capacity
Do not exceed the load limit of your vehicle
shown as “The combined weight of
occupants and cargo” on the Tire and
Loading Information label. Do not exceed
the number of occupants shown as
“Seating Capacity” on the Tire and Loading
Information label.
To get “the combined weight of occupants
and cargo”, add the weight of all
occupants, then add the total luggage
weight. Examples are shown in the following
illustration.
Example
Steps for determining correct load
limit
- Locate the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX lbs or XXX
kg” on your vehicle’s placard.
- Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will be
riding in your vehicle
- Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX lbs
or XXX kg.
- The resulting figure equals the available
amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity. For example, if the
XXX amount equals 1,400 lbs. and
there will be five 150 lb. passengers
in your vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity
is 650 lbs. (1,400-750 (5 X 150)
= 650 lbs) or (640-340 (5 X 70) =
300 kg.)
- Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calculated in
Step 4.
- If your vehicle will be towing a trailer,
load from your trailer will be transferred
to your vehicle. Consult this
manual to determine how this reduces
the available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle.
Before driving a loaded vehicle, confirm
that you do not exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR) for your vehicle.
See “Measurement of weights” in this
section.
Also check tires for proper inflation pressures.
See the Tire and Loading Information
label.
