LIMITED WARRANTY
Arctic Cat Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Arctic Cat) extends a limited warranty on each new Arctic
Cat Snowmobile it manufactures and on each part and accessory manufactured or sold by Arctic Cat.
The warranty is extended to the original retail purchaser only on parts and accessories sold through
an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. Warranty on snowmobiles is extended to the original
retail purchaser; however, the balance of the unused warranty may be transferred to a second party.
Arctic Cat warrants only the products it manufactures and/or sells and does not warrant that other
products will function properly when used with an Arctic Cat Snowmobile or will not damage the Arctic
Cat Snowmobile. Arctic Cat does not assume any liability for incidental or consequential damages.
Arctic Cat will repair or replace, at its option, free of charge (including any related labor charges), any
parts that are found to be warrantable in material or workmanship. This repair work MUST be done by
an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. No transportation charges, rental charges, or
inconvenience costs will be paid by Arctic Cat. The warranty is validated upon examination of said
parts by Arctic Cat or an authorized Arctic Cat Snowmobile dealer. Arctic Cat reserves the right to
inspect such parts at its factory for final determination if warranty should apply.
The warranty periods are as follows:
1. For snowmobiles used for recreational purposes:
—If purchased between May 1 and November 30, warranty expires ONE (1) YEAR from
December 1 of the current year.
—If purchased between December 1 and April 30, ONE (1) YEAR from the date of sale.
2. For snowmobiles used for commercial purposes (i.e. rental operations and power and light
companies), NINETY (90) DAYS from the date of sale.
3. SIX (6) MONTHS from date of sale for batteries on a full exchange basis and 50% exchange for
the remaining SIX (6) MONTHS of the first year.
4. THIRTY (30) DAYS from date of sale for all dealer installed parts and accessories.
5. UNTIL EXPIRATION OF THE NEW PRODUCT WARRANTY for all eligible replacement parts.

and Hoods

In consideration of the foregoing, any implied warranty is limited in duration to the various warranty
periods set forth. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights
which vary from state to state and country to country. Some states do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
