As the inboard or sterndrive engine owner, you should however be aware that Mercury
Marine may deny you warranty coverage if your inboard or sterndrive engine or a part has
failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications. Warranty
coverage is terminated for used product repossessed from a retail customer, purchased
at auction, from a salvage yard, or from an insurance company that obtained the product
as a result of an insurance claim.
You are responsible for presenting your inboard or sterndrive engine to a Mercury Marine
dealer authorized to service the product as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs
will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, refer to
Owner Service Assistance for contact information.
Emission Control Information Label
A tamper‑resistant Emission Control Information label is affixed in a visible location to the
engine at time of manufacture by Mercury MerCruiser. In addition to the required emissions
statement, the label lists the engine serial number, family, STD (emission standard/level),
date of manufacture (month, year), and the engine displacement. Please note that the low
emissions certification will not affect the fit, function, or performance of the engines.
Boatbuilders and dealers may not remove the label or the part it is affixed to before sale.
If modifications are necessary, contact Mercury MerCruiser about the availability of
replacement decals before proceeding.
NOTE: When the CE mark is present in the lower right corner of the Emission Control
Information Label on the engine, the Declaration of Conformance applies. Refer to the front
page of this manual for further information.
