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 production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To assure customers of 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 their customers the opportunity of handing 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 it having a zero or negative 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, go to one of our Dealerships or Fiat-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.
