General Emissions Information
After January 1, 2009, boats sold or registered in California
have a Star label on the port side of the hull adjacent to the
vessel registration, as shown.
Exhaust emissions should be routinely monitored and
verified throughout the life of the boat. The boat owner has
responsibility to ensure that the engine is never modified in any
fashion that alters the emissions occurring during operation.
The engines have been constructed to meet specifications as
established by governing bodies with authority in this matter.
Routine maintenance performed by authorized Malibu dealers
should satisfy these requirements, but having maintenance
completed by an authorized Malibu dealer does not absolve the
boat owner from responsibility that emissions requirements are
satisfied in the area in which the boat is owned and/or operated.
Each engine has an Emissions Control Information (ECI) label
affixed. A sample label is illustrated in this section. Information
appearing on the label must never be altered. If the original,
factory-affixed label is damaged or comes off the engine
block, contact an authorized Malibu dealer immediately for a
replacement. Malibu does not endorse the replacement of these
labels by any unauthorized person.
Engine emissions labels with the designation “CE” in the lower
right-hand corner have been constructed within the parameters
of the Declaration of Conformity requirements. This means that
the engine conforms to the appropriate European Community
Directive.
Star Label
A Star label is also affixed to the heat exchanger of each
certified engine. All Malibu engines, at minimum, have a Three
Star—Ultra Low Emission rating. This means that the engine
has sixty-five percent (65%) lower emissions than a One Star—
Low Emission engine. It further means that the engine meets
the California Air Resources Board’s stern drive/inboard marine
engine Tier 3 exhaust engine standard.
Engines will also have an explanatory “Star” label attached,
as shown. The applicable Star level will be marked, and an
explanation of the label designation appears on the reverse side.
The explanations are:
One Star – Low Emission. The one-star label identifies engines
that meet the Air Resources Board’s Personal
Watercraft and Outboard marine engine 2001
exhaust emission standards. Engines meeting
these standards have 75% lower emissions than
conventional carbureted two-stroke engines.
These engines are equivalent to the U.S. EPA’s 2008 standards for
marine engines.
Two Star – Very Low Emission. The two-star label identifies
engines that meet the Air Resources Board’s
Personal Watercraft and Outboard marine
engine 2004 exhaust emission standards.
Engines meeting these standards have
20% lower emissions than One Star – Low
Emissions Engines.
Three Star – Ultra Low Emission. The three-star label identifies
engines that meet the Air Resources Board’s
Personal Watercraft and Outboard marine
engine 2006 exhaust emission standards or the
Sterndrive and Inboard marine engine 2003-
2008 exhaust emission standards. Engines
meeting these standards have 65% lower emissions than One
Star – Low Emission engines.
Four Star – Super Ultra Low Emission. The four-star label
identifies engines that meet the Air Resources
Board’s Sterndrive and Inboard marine engine
2009 exhaust emission standards. Personal
Watercraft and Outboard marine engines may
also comply with these standards. Engines
meeting these standards have 90% lower emissions than One
Star – Low Emission engines.
Five Star - Level Five Extremely Clean. The five-star label
identifies engines that meet the Air Resources
Board’s Voluntary Standards for spark-ignition
marine engines. Engines meetings these
standards have 50% lower emissions than Four
Star - Super Ultra Low Emission engines.
Additional Information, Including Warranty
Malibu engines are prepared for the consumer in accordance
with the applicable regulations as established by the California
Air Resources Board as authorized by Chapters 1 and 2, Part 5,
Division 26 of the California Health and Safety Code, and the
United States Environmental Protection Agency, as described by
40 CFR 1045.
Defects resulting from any source other than that described in
the Malibu Limited Warranty Statement are not covered. Parts
required for routine maintenance during the warranty period
are also not covered. Examples would be, but are not limited to,
spark plugs or filters or fluids. However, such components may
be covered if failure occurred during the first 10-hour break-in
period. The warranty will not be extended beyond its original
expiration date for any reason, and the use of unapproved
