The requirement of section 3 does not apply to mercury-added products that are components in motor vehicles sold before July 15, 2002.Each new motor vehicle sold on or after that date must have a label listing the mercury-added products that may be components in the vehicle. The label must be affixed in a visible location on the doorpost of the driver's compartment (and not on the door itself) unless a different location is proposed by the manufacturer and approved by the department under section 7 or by another state under section 8. The label wording and font size also must be approved by the department or another state. In approving an alternative compliance plan for motor vehicles under section 7, the department may not require a label to be affixed to individual mercury-added components unless proposed by the manufacturer.
