Prescriptions For Handling The Car At The End Of Its Life - Fiat 500 Hybrid 2020 Owner's Handbook Manual

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE CAR AT THE END OF ITS
LIFE
FCA 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 provide the best possible service in terms of
compliance with environmental laws and European Directive 2000/53/EC governing cars at the end of their life, FCA is offering
its customers the chance to hand over their car at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs. The European
Directive specifies that when the car 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.
To hand your car over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another car,
or a collection and scrapping centre authorised by FCA. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer a high quality service
for the collection, treatment and recycling of cars at their end of life while respecting the environment.
Similarly, to meet its obligations under European Directive 2006/66/EC on batteries, FCA requires you to comply with the
national regulations on handling both low-voltage and high-voltage lithium ion batteries (12 V and 48 V) at all times. This includes
consigning cars complete with their batteries to one of the collection and demolition centres authorised by FCA to handle such
batteries, and not disposing of them improperly, which could lead to personal injuries and/or harm to the environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.
