PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS LIFEFiat has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its pro-
duction processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly compatible with nature.
To grant customers the best possible service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European
Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, Fiat is offering all customers the opportunity of hand-
ing over their vehicle* at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of its market value.
In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1st January 2007, vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 will
be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge irrespective of the year of registration
as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact a Fiat Dealership or authorised collection
and scrapping centres.
These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection, treatment and recycling of
vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from a Fiat and Fiat Commercial
Vehicle Dealership or by calling the toll-free number 00800 3428 0000 or on the Fiat website.
