1、GeneralSpecificationOverall Vehicle GME14090Part IdentificationGeneral Rules1 ScopeThe uniform identification of all vehicle parts (produc-tion and customer service parts) in all vehicles is car-ried out in the interest of optimum production comple-tion and quality assurance.Basically, all vehicle p
2、arts (production and customerservice parts) shallbe identified. Due totechnicalfea-sibility exceptions to this rule are sensible and possi-ble (e.g. mass parts such as rivets and bolts). Thisdecision shall be taken by GME Engineering.The components are divided into three main groups:1.1 Parts to be
3、provided with Basic Identification.All parts which cannot be allocated to one of thegroups below are provided with basic identification(see paragraph 3).1.2 Parts which shall be identified accordingto ISO Guidelines/Recommendations. Partswhich shall be identified according to ISO 1043-1,ISO 1043-2,
4、ISO 1043-3 (only in case of healthendangerment by plasticizers), ISO 1043-4,ISO 1629, ISO 11469 guidelines/recommenda-tions. This group includes, e.g. all elastomer andplastic parts as well as all other materials.1.3 Parts dependent on EU/ECE Type Approvaland which shall be identified. This group cu
5、rrentlyincludes: Parts inthe nonvisible area, alllightingfacil-ities (headlamps and rear lamps, flasher lamps, etc.),horns, fanfares and electronic subassemblies (ESA).Note: Nothinginthisstandardsupersedesapplicablelaws and regulations.Note: In the event of a conflict between the Eng-lish and the do
6、mestic language, the English languageshall take precedence.2 ReferencesNote: Only the latest approved standards are appli-cable unless otherwise specified.2.1 External Standards/Specifications.DIN 1451-4ISO 1043-1ISO 1043-2ISO 1043-3ISO 1043-4ISO 1629ISO 114692.2 GM Standards/Specifications.GMW16331
