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.
