Emission regulations and emission labels
Responsibility for compliance with emission regulations
Modification or removal of any mechanical/electronic components or the installation of additional compo-
nents including the execution of calibration processes that might affect the emission characteristics of the
product are prohibited by emission regulations. Emission control units/systems may only be maintained, ex-
changed or repaired if the components used for this purpose are approved by the manufacturer.
Noncompliance with these regulations will invalidate the design type approval issued by the emissions regu-
lation authorities. The manufacturer does not accept any liability for violations of the emission regulations.
The maintenance schedules of the manufacturer must be observed over the entire life cycle of the product.
Replacing components with emission labels
Emission labels are attached to all MTU engines. These must remain on the engine throughout its operational
life.
Engines used exclusively in land-based, military applications other than by US government agencies are ex-
cepted from this proviso.
Please note the following when replacing components with emission labels:
• Appropriate emission labels must be affixed on spare parts.
• Emission labels may not be transferred from old components to new ones.
• Emission labels on old components must be removed and destroyed.
