9.6 FUEL CONSUMPTION LABEL
ADR 81/00 requires that from 1 January 2001, a label
sim ilar to that shown in Figure 0A- 10 is attached to the
windscreen of any new vehicle which is displayed for
sale.
The fuel consumption label figures (1) quoted are the
results of tests carried out in accordance with the City
Cycle test procedure of AS2877 – 1986, an Australian
standard for fuel consumption testing. Each vehicle is
tested under identical conditions. The tests therefore
enable a comparison to be made between vehicles.
The label should be removed from the windscreen
immediately prior to the vehicle being delivered to the
owner.
The number on the lower por tion of the label (2) s hould
match the Vehicle Identification Number.
