Owner/Operator Responsibilities
It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety checks, to ensure that all lubrication
and maintenance instructions are complied with for safe operation and to return the unit to
an authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer for a periodic checkup.
Normal maintenance service and replacement parts are the responsibility of the owner/
operator and as such, are not considered defects in workmanship or material within the
terms of the warranty. Individual operating habits and usage contribute to the need for
maintenance service.
Proper maintenance and care of your power package will ensure optimum performance
and dependability and will keep your overall operating expenses at a minimum. See your
authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer for service aids.
Dealer Responsibilities
In general, a dealer's responsibilities to the customer include predelivery inspection and
preparation such as:
• Ensure that the boat is properly equipped.
• Prior to delivery, make certain that the Mercury MerCruiser power package and other
equipment are in proper operating condition.
• Make all necessary adjustments for maximum efficiency.
• Familiarize the customer with the on‑board equipment.
• Explain and demonstrate the operation of the power package and boat.
• Provide you with a copy of a Predelivery Inspection Checklist.
• Your selling dealer should fill out the Warranty Registration Card completely and mail
it to the factory immediately upon sale of the new product.

compartment before servicing the power package.
