WARRANTY INFORMATION
12
Corrosion damage caused by stray electrical currents (on‑shore
power connections, nearby boats, submerged metal) is not
covered by this corrosion warranty and should be protected
against by the use of a corrosion protection system, such as the
Mercury Precision Parts or Quicksilver MerCathode system and/
or Galvanic Isolator. Corrosion damage caused by improper
application of copper base anti‑fouling paints is also not covered
by this limited warranty. If anti‑fouling protection is required,
Tri‑Butyl‑Tin‑Adipate (TBTA) base anti‑fouling paints are
recommended on Outboard and MerCruiser boating applications.
In areas where TBTA base paints are prohibited by law, copper
base paints can be used on the hull and transom. Do not apply
paint to the outboard or MerCruiser product. In addition, care must
be taken to avoid an electrical interconnection between the
warranted product and the paint. For MerCruiser product, an
unpainted gap of at least 38 mm (1.5 in.) should be left around the
transom assembly. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance
Manual for additional details.
For additional information regarding events and circumstances
covered by this warranty, and those that are not, see the Warranty
Coverage section of the Operation and Maintenance Manual,
