ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Environmental protection is one of the key
values pursued in all FCA activities.
Attention to the environment covers the
entire life cycle of the car and takes into
account its overall environmental impact,
from design to component reuse.
FCA applies the basic principle that any
new product developed must have a lower
environmental impact than the product it
replaces.
An energy-ef
fi cient, fuel-ef fi cient car
not only helps to reduce environmental
impact, but also allows the driver to keep
running costs down, saving money and
contributing to a better environment.
Here are some tips:

Plan your route for effective average
speed. Speeds above about 80
km/h
and below 50 km/h lead to higher
energy consumption.

Observe the service and maintenance
intervals of the vehicle as stated in the
Service and Warranty Booklet.

Avoid running the engine at idle and
switch it off during long queues.
Comply with the regulations of the
country where you are driving.

Planning the route: many
unnecessary stops and an irregular
speed contribute to increase fuel
consumption.
NOTE Dispose of any potentially polluting
waste materials (e.g. batteries and
used oil) respecting the environment.
In case of doubt about the disposal of
waste materials, please contact a Jeep
Dealership.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
To limit fuel consumption, try to make
maximum use of the car's electric drive,
depending on the driving needs and the
route.
Since much of a car's total environmental
impact is generated by its use, one of
FCA's main objectives is to reduce fuel
consumption, carbon dioxide and other
pollutants emissions.
The lower the fuel consumption, the lower
the emissions of carbon dioxide, a gas
that contributes to the creation of the
greenhouse effect.
