❒extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates
using the vehicle out of town with fre-
quent acceleration in all gears; the
speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: this is calcu-
lated with a weighting of about 37% ur-
ban cycle consumption and about 63%
extra-urban consumption.
The fuel consumption figures given in the
table below are determined on the basis
of the homologation tests set down by
specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for
measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by
driving that simulates urban use of the
car; IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
situations, weather conditions, driving
style, general state of the car, trim lev-
el/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, and other sit-
uations that affect how the car moves
through the air may lead to different fuel
consumption levels than those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres / \
100 km)

ARRANGEMENTS FOR DEALING WITH THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS LIFE
Fiat has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment t\
hrough the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly “eco-compa\
tible”. To give customers the best possible service in terms
of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2\
000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, 
Fiat is offering its customers the opportunity of handing over their veh\
icle* 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 all European \
Union countries, until 1st January 2007, only vehicles  regis-
tered after 1st July 2002 were collected free of charge, while since 200\
7 collection has been free of charge irrespective of the year
of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (i\
n particular, the engine and bodywork) and has no additi onal
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 hig\
h quality service for the collection, treatment and rec ycling
of unused vehicles with respect to the environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centr\
es either from a Fiat or Fiat Commercial Vehicle Dealer -
ship or by calling the freephone number 00800 3428 0000 or by going on t\
he Fiat website.
(*) Vehicle for transporting passengers with a maximum of nine seats a\
nd a total permitted weight of 3.5 t
