M4010017000037
In order to protect against theft, a Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN) is attached as a plate or label to the following major parts
of the engine and transaxle, as well as main outer panels:
Engine cylinder block, Transaxle housing, Fender, Doors,
Trunk lid, Quarter panel, Hood, Bumpers
In addition, a theft-protection label is attached to replacement
parts for the body outer panel main components, and the same
data is stamped into replacement parts for the engine and the
transaxle.
CAUTION
Cautions regarding panel repairs:
1. When repainting original parts, do so after first masking
the theft-protection label. After painting, be sure to peel
off the masking tape.
2. The theft-protection label for replacement parts is cov-
ered by masking tape, so such parts can be painted as
is. The masking tape should be removed after painting
is finished.
3. The theft-protection label should not be removed from
original parts or replacement parts.
