General Information
1.3 Emissions and Safety
Information
A Complete Sprinter Van "As Delivered"or a cab chassis,
i.e., an incomplete vehicle, delivered by DCMC or DCV to
Dealers or Body Builders is certified for by DCAG for
compliance with the U.S. and Canadian emissions and
safety standards at the time of manufacture. If this vehicle
is altered, after delivery by DCMC or DCV, Body Builders
and/
or Dealers assume the regulatory responsibility for
certification.
This Section provides general information concerning
applicable emissions and safety standards at the time of
the vehicle manufacture. This section is written to assist
Body Builders in understanding the U.S. EPA and the
CARB exhaust emission and noise standards, Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS). DCMI
neither approves or recommends any modifications or
additions to the Sprinter vehicle, which may cause
noncompliance with any EPA or FMVSS or CMVSS
standards, or render the vehicle unsafe.
Questions concerning the content of this Section can be
directed to DCMC or DCV’s designee set forth below:
Compliance Specialist, DaimlerChrysler Manufacturing
International LLC, Telephone (704) 655-1052.
Body Builder should, however, consult with an attorney
concerning interpretations of the applicable laws and
regulations and determine if the modification Body
Builder made to the Sprinter may affect the final
certification or compliance of the vehicle. Further, it is the
Body Builder
's responsibility to ensure modifications do
not render the vehicle unsafe.
1.3.1 Exhaust Emission Control
Information
The Sprinter engines, Mercedes-Benz OM612LA, or
OM647LA, are certified with the U.S. EPA and the
Environment Canada, or the CARB, to comply with the
heavy-duty diesel engine exhaust emission standards
under Title II, Section 206 of the Clean Air Act and 40 CFR
Part 86 regulations. Proof of this EPA certification is
shown by an exhaust emission control label, i.e., an
”Important Engine Information” label, see Section 1.4
,
affixed to the rocker cover of the engine.
Provisions of the EPA regulations require that the
emission-related components function in-use over the
prescribed full useful life period as certified, i.e., 8 years or
110,000 miles, whichever occurs first. To be certain that
these components function properly, the end users are
required to use appropriate fuels and lubricants
and
maintain these components properly in accordance with
the Operator´s Manual and Service Booklet. In addition,
