Default Hitch Capacity

I'm planning on adding a hitch to my CX-30. The hitch would be a Mazda approved unit.I will not be hauling but using it for my bike carrier. Also for transporting a mobile scooter on a carrier. These uses would only be for short trips (100 miles, maximum).
My question is how much weight will I be able to carry safely?

Regards

I am planning on getting one for my bike rack also, as the manual says it cannot tow anything. I would recommend using UHaul to buy and install a Curt hitch
(Looks to be around $250 total). I tried to install one on my wife's CX-5, but gave up even though I had installed a few in the past because of the difficulty involved, and I'm getting old!

Strange.

This is for the Australian CX-30
