- General Information
BRP LIMITED WARRANTY FOR 2006 EVINRUDE OUTBOARD ENGINES
SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA
1. SCOPE OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY
Bombardier Recreational Products* (“BRP”) warrants its 2006 Evinrude® outboard engines sold by authorized Evinrude
dealers in the fifty United States and Canada (“Product”) from defects in material or workmanship for the period and under
the conditions described below.
2. WARRANTY COVERAGE PERIOD
This limited warranty will be in effect from the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or the date the Product is first
put to use, whichever occurs first, for a period of:
THIRTY-SIX (36) CONSECUTIVE MONTHS for private, recreational use; or
TWELVE (12) CONSECUTIVE MONTHS for commercial use, except that emission-related components providing input
to emission controls (e.g. sensors) are warranted for twenty-four (24) months or two hundred (200) hours of engine use,
whichever occurs first. The Product is used commercially when it is used in connection with any work or employment that
generates income, during any part of the warranty period. The Product is also used commercially when, at any point dur-
ing the warranty period, it is installed on a boat that has commercial tags or is licensed for commercial use.
The repair or replacement of parts or the performance of service to Product under this warranty does not extend the life
of this limited warranty beyond its original expiration date. All
Evinrude/Johnson® Genuine Parts and accessories in-
stalled by an authorized dealer at the time of sale, including but not limited to propellers, bear the standard BRP parts
and accessories one-year limited warranty.
California residents who purchased or warranty-registered a Product in California should refer to BRP’s California Emis-
sions Control Warranty Statement.
3. CONDITIONS TO HAVE WARRANTY COVERAGE
This warranty coverage is available only on Evinrude outboard engines purchased as new and unused from a dealer au-
thorized to distribute Evinrude products in the country in which the sale occurred (“Dealer”), and then only after the BRP-
specified pre-delivery inspection process has been completed and documented by the purchaser and Dealer. Warranty
coverage only becomes available upon proper registration of Product by Dealer or owner.
Only the original purchaser and any subsequent owners who reside in the United States and Canada and have pur-
chased Product from a U.S. or Canadian Dealer are eligible for warranty registration and warranty coverage hereunder.
Such limitations are necessary in order to allow BRP to protect the safety of its products, its consumers, and the general
public.
As outlined in the Operator's Guide, timely routine required maintenance must be performed to maintain warranty cover-
age. BRP may require proof of proper maintenance prior to authorizing warranty coverage.
4. WHAT TO DO TO OBTAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE
The registered owner must notify an authorized Dealer within two (2) days of the appearance of a defect. Owner must
bring Product, including any defective part therein, to Dealer promptly after the appearance of the defect, and in any
event, within the warranty period, and must provide Dealer with reasonable opportunity to repair the defect. The expenses
of transporting Product to and from Dealer for warranty service are to be borne by the owner.
If the Product has not previously been registered, the owner may also be required to present proof of purchase to Dealer
for warranty repairs. Owner is required to sign the repair/work order prior to the start of the repair in order to validate the
warranty repair.
All parts replaced under this warranty become the property of BRP.
5. WHAT BRP WILL DO
BRP’s obligations under this warranty are limited to, at its sole discretion, repairing or replacing parts of Product found to
be defective in material or workmanship, in the reasonable judgment of BRP. Such repair or replacement of parts will be
done without charge for parts and labor, at any authorized Dealer. BRP’s responsibility is limited to making the required
repairs or replacements of parts with new or BRP-certified re-manufactured parts. No claim of breach of warranty shall
be cause for cancellation or rescission of the sale of Product to owner.
In the event that warranty service is required outside of the fifty United States or Canada, owner will bear responsibility
for any additional charges due to local practices and conditions, such as, but not limited to, freight, insurance, taxes, li-
cense fees, import duties, and any and all other financial charges, including those levied by governments, states, territo-
ries and their respective agencies.
BRP reserves the right to improve, modify or change Products from time to time without assuming any obligation to modify
Products previously manufactured.
