post, and certifies that the vehicle conforms to all
applicable CMVSS regulations in effect on the date
of completion.
Tire and Rim Labels
Tire and rim labels certify suitable tire and rim combi-
nations that can be installed on the vehicle, for the
given gross axle weight rating. Tires and rims in-
stalled on the vehicle at the time of manufacture may
have a higher load capacity than that certified by the
tire and rim label. If the tires and rims currently on
the vehicle have a lower load capacity than that
shown on the tire and rim label, then the tires and
rims determine the load limitations on each of the
axles. See
Fig. 1.3

EPA Emission Control
Vehicle Noise Emission Control Label
A vehicle noise emission control label (
Fig. 1.7
) is
attached either to the left side of the dashboard or to
the top-right surface of the frontwall between the
dash and the windshield.
IMPORTANT: Certain Freightliner incomplete
vehicles may be produced with incomplete noise
control hardware. Such vehicles will not have a
vehicle noise emission control information label.
For such vehicles, it is the final-stage manufac-
turer’s responsibility to complete the vehicle in
conformity to U.S. EPA regulations (40 CFR Part
205) and label it for compliance.
