GMW14573 |
This standard defines the requirements and strategy for labels
on GM vehicles sold worldwide. Labels required in this standard are
intended to convey information as well as to comply with legal
requirements, product liability requirements, or information
necessary for the handling of the vehicle throughout the entire
vehicle lifecycle.
A label is a message applied to a vehicle or component that
warns, informs, or instructs. Any message other than
specifications, bar codes, or identification marks is classified as
a label. Labels that are installed solely as manufacturing aids are
not covered by this document.
Wherever possible, label messages should be integrated into the
component; e.g., embossed, debossed, pad printed, laser etched,
scribed, silk screened; to eliminate the need for a unique label
part number and assembly operation. This standard addresses the
performance requirements for pressure sensitive adhesive, in mold,
and heat applied labels.
