Vehicle identification number (VIN)

The vehicle identification number (VIN) is the number used in registering your vehicle and in all legal matters pertaining to its ownership, etc.
The number is punched on the floor under the front passenger seat. To check the number, remove the cover (1).

The VIN is also on a plate attached to the top of the dashboard. The number on the plate can easily be seen through the windshield from outside.
