CARRYING LOADS
Cargo or a trailer can change the stability and handling of a vehicle.
You must use common sense and good judgment when carrying cargo
or towing a trailer. Keep the following points in mind:

Never exceed the weight limits shown. An overloaded vehicle can
be unstable.
MAXIMUM LOADING LIMIT

Cargo bed: 100 kg (220 lb)
Trailer hitch:
Pulling load (total weight of trailer
and cargo): 200 kgf (450 lbf)
Tongue weight (vertical weight on
trailer hitch point): 11 kgf (25 lbf)

Choose a trailer hitch drawbar designed for use with a 50.8mm (2 in)
receiver.

Load cargo in the cargo bed as close to the center of the vehicle as
possible and tie it down using the cargo hooks equipped on the
cargo bed.

Tie down cargo securely in the trailer. Make sure cargo in the trailer
cannot move around. A shifting load can cause an accident.

Make sure the load does not interfere with controls or your ability to
see where you are going.

Drive more slowly than you would without a load. The more weight
you carry, the slower you should go. Although conditions vary, it is
good practice not to exceed low range whenever you are carrying
