THEFT PROTECTION LABEL

M1001015700260

CAUTION

When replacing a part that has the theft protection plate, 
label or stamp on it, be sure that the part has either A or B 
shown in the figure. It is illegal if both A and B are 
attached, or neither A nor B is attached. 
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, transaxle and main outer panels: Engine cylinder 
block, Transaxle housing, Front fender, Hood, Trunk lid, 
Bumpers, Side outer panel, Doors. In addition, a theft-protec-
tion label is attached to replacement parts for main outer pan-
els. The same data is stamped into replacement parts for the 
engine and the transaxle.

CAUTION

Cautions regarding panel repairs:

• When repainting original parts, do so after first masking 

the theft-protection label. After painting, be sure to peel 
off the masking tape.

• 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.

• The theft-protection label should not be removed from 

original parts or replacement parts.
