WARRANTY INFORMATION

California Emissions Limited Warranty
The California Air Resources Board has promulgated air emissions
regulations for outboard engines. The regulations apply to all outboard
engines sold to retail consumers in California, and which were
manufactured for the 2001 model year, and later. Mercury Marine, in
compliance with those regulations, provides this limited warranty for the
emission control systems (see the components of the emission control
system listed following), and further warrants that the outboard engine was
designed, built and equipped to conform with all applicable regulations
adopted by the California Air Resources Board pursuant to its authority in
Chapters 1 and 2, Part 5, Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code. For
information regarding the limited warranty for the non emissions related
components of the outboard, please see the limited warranty statement for
your outboard.
WHAT IS COVERED: Mercury Marine warrants the components of the
emissions control systems (see the components of the emission control
system listed following) of its new, 2001 model year (and later) outboards,
sold by a California dealer to retail customers residing in California, to be
free from defects in material or workmanship, that cause the failure of a
warranted part to be identical in all material respects to that part as
described in the application of Mercury Marine for certification from the
California Air Resources Board, for the period of time, and under the
conditions, identified below. The cost to diagnose a warranty failure is
covered under the warranty (if the warranty claim is approved). Damage to
other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part will also
be repaired under warranty.
DURATION OF COVERAGE: This limited warranty provides coverage for
the components of the emissions control systems of new, 2001 model year
(and later) outboards, sold to retail customers in California for 4 years from
either the date the product is first sold, or first put into service, whichever
occurs first, or the accumulation of 250 hours of engine operation (as
determined by the engines hour meter, if any). Emission related normal
maintenance items such as spark plugs and filters, that are on the
warranted parts list (see following) are warranted up to their first required
replacement interval only. (See Maintenance ‑ Inspection and
Maintenance Schedule). The repair or replacement of parts, or the
performance of service under this warranty, does not extend the life of this
warranty beyond its original expiration date. Unexpired warranty coverage
can be transferred to a subsequent purchaser. (See instructions on transfer
of warranty).
