Base Engine Calibration Information
Base Engine Calibration Information also sometimes refer to as the Powertrain Calibration is located in the lower right corner of the Vehicle Certification (VC) Label. Engine calibration information is limited to a maximum of five characters per line (two lines maximum). Calibration information more than five characters long will wrap to the second line of this field. Only the Base Calibration will appear on this label, see (Scheme 184) for Car and (Scheme 185) for Truck. For more information on Vehicle Certification Label or Engine Calibration, refer to the appropriate IDENTIFICATION CODES article.

| 4 | MODEL YEAR - Model year in which calibration was first introduced. Example: "4" = 2004 |
| B7 | VEHICLE CODE - Vehicle line description. Example: "B7" = Expedition |
| 1 | TRANSMISSION CODE - Transmission description. Example: "1" = automatic, "2" = manual |
| 6E | UNIQUE CALIBRATION - Identifications are assigned to cover similar vehicle to differentiate between tires, drive configurations, final drive ratios and other calibration-significant factors. |
| 4 | FLEET CODE - Describes fleet to which vehicle belongs to "4" = Not assigned. |
| 5 | CERTIFICATION REGION - Lead region code where multiple regions are included in one Calibration. Example "5" = U.S. fifty states |
| 00 | REVISION LEVEL - Revision level of the calibration. "00" = Job 1 production or initial calibration. (Not printed on VC label) |
