hereby warrant that new Yamaha snow-
mobiles will be free from defects in
material and workmanship for the period
of time stated herein, subject to certain
stated limitations.
WARRANTY PERIOD

customer’s country of residence (United
States or Canada) and registered with
Yamaha shall be warranted against
defects in material and workmanship,
subject to the exclusions stated herein,
for the following stated period of time:
All Yamaha snowmobiles shall be war-
ranted for a term of one (1) year from the
date of purchase, plus a special early-sea-

any authorized Yamaha snowmo-
bile dealer shall, free of charge, repair or
replace, at Yamaha’s option, any part
adjudged defective by Yamaha due to faulty
workmanship or material from the factory.
Parts used in warranty repairs will be war-
ranted for the balance of the snowmobile’s
warranty period. All parts replaced under
warranty become the property of Yamaha.
GENERAL EXCLUSIONS
from this
warranty shall include any failures to the
machine caused by:
1. Lack of proper setup and/or pre-
delivery service by an authorized
Yamaha dealer.
2. Competition, racing, or non-Yamaha
authorized rental use.
3. Operation on surfaces other than
snow or ice.
4. Installation of parts or accessories
that are not qualitatively equivalent
to genuine Yamaha parts.
5. Abnormal strain, neglect, or abuse.
6. Lack of proper maintenance.
7. Accident or collision damage.
8. Modification to original parts.
SPECIFIC EXCLUSIONS
from this

including oil, spark plugs, clutch drive
belts, slide runners, and tracks.
THE CUSTOMER’S RESPONSI-
BILITY
under this warranty shall be to:
1. Operate and maintain the snowmo-
bile as specified in the appropriate
Owner’s Manual. It is recommended
that the customer keep records to
show proof of proper maintenance
and off-season storage having been
performed.
2. Give notice to an authorized Yamaha
snowmobile dealer of any and all
apparent defects within ten (10) days
after discovery, and make the
machine available at that time for
inspection and repairs at such
dealer’s place of business.
EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM WARRANTY
(U.S.A. ONLY)
Yamaha also warrants to the ultimate pur-
chaser and each subsequent purchaser of
each applicable model Yamaha snowmo-
bile covered by this warranty that the
vehicle is designed, built, and equipped
so as to conform at the time of sale with
all U.S. emissions standards applicable at
the time of manufacture and that it is free
from defects in materials and workman-
ship which would cause it not to meet
these standards within the period listed
immediately below. Failures other than
those resulting from defects in material
or workmanship which arise solely as a
result of owner abuse and/or lack of
proper maintenance are not covered by
this warranty.
