IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION FOR U.S.A. AND
CANADA
Welcome to the Yamaha Family!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Yamaha marine power. Yamaha is commit-
ted to exceptional customer satisfaction, and we want your ownership experience to be a
satisfying one. Please read the following warranty information to help ensure satisfaction
with your Yamaha.
Yamaha is ready to stand behind your purchase with strong warranty coverage. To be sure you
receive all the benefits of warranty, please take the following steps:
1. Be sure your new Yamaha is registered for warranty. Your boat dealer should do this at the
time of sale. Make sure your dealer gives you a copy of the completed Yamaha registration
card for your records. If you are unsure whether or not your Yamaha is registered, complete
the Warranty Registration card found inside the cover of the Owner’s Manual. Mail it to the
distributor for the country in which you live (see step 6 for the correct address). If your
Yamaha is not properly registered, a warranty repair could be unnecessarily delayed while
registration records are checked.
2. Read the Limited Warranty statement which follows these instructions. This warranty applies
to Yamaha outboard motors sold in the United States, whether purchased separately or
when supplied as original equipment by a boat builder. The terms also apply to original
equipment packages sold in Canada, with coverage provided by Yamaha Motor Canada (see
‘‘Warranty Guide’’ for Canadian models). This warranty explains the conditions of the warran-
ty, including the obligations that your dealer and you as the owner have under the warranty.
For example, your Yamaha outboard must receive a proper pre-delivery inspection (PDI) by
the selling dealer. Failure to take this important step could jeopardize warranty coverage!
3. If you need warranty repairs, you must take your Yamaha outboard to an authorized Yamaha
outboard dealer. Be aware that not all selling boat dealers are authorized Yamaha dealers.
Only authorized dealers have the factory training, special tools, and Yamaha support needed
to perform warranty repairs.
4. If you are away from home, or your selling dealer is not an authorized Yamaha dealer, use
the following toll-free numbers to find the nearest Yamaha dealer.
United States Dealer Locations: 1-800-692-6242
Canada Dealer Locations: 1-800-267-8577
