Theft Prevention

This vehicle complies with the  Federal 

Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Stan­
dard  (49 CFR Part 541).  Engine, trans­
mission and certain body parts (see 
illustration)  are labeled ex factory, the 
labels show the VIN-number of this 

vehicle.

Spare parts are similarly labeled ex 

factory in a different location. The 

labels show the letter R (for replace­
ment)  instead of the VIN-number.

Note:

Do not remove these labels. These 

labels are intended for parts identifi­
cation  in case of theft. When replac­
ing parts subject to labeling, please 
make sure that the parts you receive 
are labeled  properly. This is  especially 
important when work is performed 
outside of the United States.
