NOTE: The Unit Base Weight (UBW) and the Net Carrying Capacity (NCC) is not the

shown on the Motorhome Weight Information tag in your vehicle. The UBW and NCC
weights are for the base unit with no options and fluids except for fuel on motorhomes.
The UVW and CCC on the Motorhome Weight Information tag are weights for the
individual vehicle as built with its options and certain water capacities.

tion at GVWR (GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING), NOT at the GCWR (GROSS
COMBINED WEIGHT RATING). A separate functioning brake system is required
for any towed vehicles or trailers weighing more than 1000 lbs. (450 kg) when
fully loaded. NEVER exceed the GVWR (GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING), or
the GAWR (GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING) specified on a motorhome certifica-
tion label.
WARNING: Do not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Ratings, the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating , or the Gross Combined Weight Rating when loading your

result in loss of control of the motorhome and towed vehicle or trailer and may
cause an accident and serious injury.
WARNING: READ AND FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS IN THE FUEL
SECTION OF YOUR SPRINTER’S OPERATOR’S MANUAL BEFORE FUELING
YOUR VEHICLE.
WARNING: NEVER exceed the weight ratings of trailer hitch installed
on a motorhome. Failure to heed any part of this warning could result in loss of
control of the motorhome and towed vehicle or trailer and may cause an accident,
serious and/or fatal injury. For specified towed vehicle braking requirements,
consult the chassis owner’s manual that comes with this vehicle.
