final determination if warranty should apply.

2. Ninety days from date of invoice — for an Arctic Cat ATV used for commercial purposes, including

rental operations (non-transferable).

2. Repairs and/or adjustments by anyone other than an authorized Arctic Cat ATV dealer.

3. Use of improper carburetor main jets.

4. Use of improper gasoline, lubricating oils, or spark plug.

5. An accident or subjecting the ATV to misuse, abuse, or negligent operation.

6. Any modification, addition, or removal of parts unless instructed to do so by Arctic Cat.

10. Use of parts not sold or approved by Arctic Cat.

11. Damage due to improper transportation.

In consideration of the foregoing, any implied warranty is limited in duration to the various warranty
periods set forth. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights
which vary from state/province to state/province or country to country. Some jurisdictions do not allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
