Vehicle Specification Decal
The vehicle specification decal lists the vehicle
model, identification number, and major component
models. It also recaps the major assemblies and in-
stallations shown on the chassis specification sheet.
One copy of the specification decal is attached to the
driver’s side sunvisor; another copy is inside the rear
cover of the
Owner’s Warranty Information for North
America

in
Fig. 1.1

NOTE: Labels shown in this chapter are ex-
amples only. Actual specifications may vary from
vehicle to vehicle.
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (FMVSS) Labels
NOTE: Due to the variety of FMVSS certification
requirements, not all of the labels shown will
apply to your vehicle.
Tractors with or without fifth wheels purchased in the
U.S. are certified by means of a certification label
(
Fig. 1.2
) and the tire and rim labels (
Fig. 1.3
).
These labels are attached to the left rear door post,
as shown in
Fig. 1.4
.
If purchased for service in the U.S., trucks built with-
out a cargo body have a certification label (
Fig. 1.5
)
attached to the left rear door post. See
Fig. 1.4
. In
addition, after completion of the vehicle, a certifica-
tion label similar to that shown in
Fig. 1.2
must be
attached by the final-stage manufacturer. This label
will be located on the left rear door post and certifies
that the vehicle conforms to all applicable FMVSS
regulations in effect on the date of completion.
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (CMVSS) Labels
In Canada, tractors with fifth wheels are certified by
means of a "Statement of Compliance" label and the
Canadian National Safety Mark (
Fig. 1.6
), which are
attached to the left rear door post. In addition, tire
and rim labels (
Fig. 1.3
) are also attached to the left
rear door post.
If purchased for service in Canada, trucks built with-
out a cargo body and tractors built without a fifth
wheel are certified by a "Statement of Compliance"
label, similar to
Fig. 1.2
. This label must be attached
by the final-stage manufacturer after completion of
the vehicle. The label is located on the left rear door
