WARRANTY REGISTRATION

2. It identifies name and address of the original purchaser, product model and

serial number(s), date of sale, type of use and selling dealer’s code, name and
address. The dealer also certifies that you are the original purchaser and user
of the product.

3. Upon receipt of the Warranty Registration Card at the factory, you will be issued

a plastic Owner Warranty Registration Card which is your only valid
registration identification. It must be presented to the servicing dealer should
warranty service be required. Warranty claims will not be accepted without
presentation of this card.

4. A temporary Owner Warranty Registration Card will be presented to you when

you purchase the product. It is valid only for 30 days from date of sale while
your plastic Owner Warranty Registration Card is being processed. Should
your product need service during this period, present the temporary
registration card to the dealer. He will attach it to your warranty claim form.

5. Because of your selling dealer’s continuing personal interest in your

satisfaction, the product should be returned to him for warranty service.

6. If your plastic card is not received within 30 days from date of new product sale,

please contact your selling dealer.

7. The limited warranty is not effective until the product is registered at the factory.

products sold in the United States, should notification under the Federal Boat
Safety Act be required.

WARRANTY REGISTRATION

Outside The United States And Canada

1. It is important that your selling dealer fills out the Warranty Registration Card

completely and mails it to the distributor or Marine Power Service Center
responsible for administering the warranty registration/claim program for your
area.

2. The Warranty Registration Card identifies your name and address, product

model and serial number(s), date of sale, type of use and the selling
distributor’s/dealer’s code number, name and address. The distributor/dealer
also certifies that you are the original purchaser and user of the product.

3. A copy of the Warranty Registration Card, designated as the “Purchaser’s

Copy”, MUST be given to you immediately after the card has been completely
filled out by the selling distributor/dealer. This card represents your factory
registration identification, and should be retained by you for future use when
required. Should you ever require warranty service on this product, your dealer
may ask you for the Warranty Registration Card to verify date of purchase and
to use the information on the card to prepare the warranty claim form(s).

4. In some countries, the Marine Power Service Center will issue you a

permanent (plastic) Warranty Registration Card within 30 days after receiving
the “Factory Copy” of the Warranty Registration Card from your
distributor/dealer. If you receive a plastic Warranty Registration Card, you may
discard the “Purchaser’s Copy” that you received from the distributor/dealer
when you purchased the product. Ask your distributor/dealer if this plastic card
program applies to you.

5. For further information concerning the Warranty Registration Card and its

relationship to Warranty Claim processing, refer to the “International
Warranty”.

IMPORTANT: Registration lists must be maintained by the factory and
dealer in some countries by law. It is our desire to have ALL products
registered at the factory should it ever be necessary to contact you. Make
sure your dealer/distributor fills out the warranty registration card
immediately and sends the factory copy to the Marine Power International
Service Center for your area.
