TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of August 6, 1969, and August 15, 1969, in which you request approval of an alternative to the label locations specified in Section 367.4(c) of the Certification Regulations that will be effective as to vehicles manufactured on or after September 1, 1969.

The location you have selected is not considered to be in the same general area, left side of the vehicle, as specified. In view of the fact that interested parties will be looking for the label in that general area, your proposed location, on the right side forward of the entrance door, is not approved. Please select another location that would be in the general area of the driver's seat and submit for approval.

The nomenclature on your label, as shown in drawing No. BS6111-007, does not fulfill the requirements of Part 367.4(g) of the regulations in that the required information is not presented in the order prescribed.

Your cooperation is appreciated.
