I wonder if anyone can help me to understand this plate on my Eriba? MRO = 100kg can't be right....can it?
Feels more like it ought to be 1000kg?

Eriba 540 touring dragged along with a 2015 Skoda Octavia 2.0 tdi

The MRO refers to the max load the hitch is designed to take. This may be immaterial as your tow bar is probably a lower level, usually 75/80kg.

Not sure why Hymer have put MRO there. In fact it's 'Axle 0' or nosewheel and is the weight limit on the tow hitch. 'Axle 1' is your only axle weight limit and matches the vans MTPLM. Some vans have an MTPLM lower than their Axle limit but the MTPLM allocated by the manufacturer is the load limit, unless upgraded with their permission. MIRO/MRO isn't legally required to be plated and in the case of Touring vans the brochure MIRO may well be much less than the vans actual weight after factory fit options are added.
