Section 1 - Warranty
How To Obtain Warranty Coverage
The customer must provide Mercury with a reasonable opportunity to repair and reasonable
access to the product for warranty service. Warranty claims shall be made by delivering
the product for inspection to a Mercury dealer authorized to service the product. If
purchaser cannot deliver the product to such a dealer, please notify Mercury Marine and
Mercury will then arrange for the inspection and any covered repair. Purchaser in that case
shall pay for all related transportation charges and/or travel time. If the service provided is
not covered by this warranty, purchaser shall pay for all related labor and material, and any
other expenses associated with that service. Purchaser shall not, unless requested by
Mercury, ship the product or parts of the product directly to Mercury. Proof of registered
ownership must be presented to the dealer at the time warranty service is requested in
order to obtain coverage.
What Mercury Will Do
Mercury Marine's sole and exclusive obligation under this warranty is limited to, at our
expense and at our option, repairing or replacing defective parts with new or Mercury
Marine certified re‑manufactured parts, or refunding the purchase price of the Mercury
product. Mercury reserves the right to improve or modify products from time to time without
assuming an obligation to modify products previously manufactured.
What Is Not Covered
This limited warranty does not cover routine maintenance items, tune ups, adjustments,
normal wear and tear, damage caused by abuse, abnormal use, use of a propeller or gear
ratio that does not allow the engine to run in its recommended wide‑open‑throttle RPM
range (see Specifications), operation of the product in a manner inconsistent with the
recommended operation procedures, neglect, accident, submersion, improper installation
(proper installation specifications and techniques are set forth in the installation instructions
for the product), improper service, use of an accessory or part not manufactured or sold
by us, jet pump impellers and liners, operation with fuels, oils or lubricants which are not
suitable for use with the product (see Specifications), alteration or removal of parts, or water
entering the engine through the fuel intake, air intake or exhaust system. Use of the product
for racing or other competitive activity, or operating with a racing type lower unit, at any
point, even by a prior owner of the product, voids the warranty.
Expenses related to haul‑out, launch, towing, storage, telephone, rental, inconvenience,
slip fees, insurance coverage, loan payments, loss of time, loss of income, or any other
type of incidental or consequential damages are not covered by this warranty. Also,
expenses associated with the removal and/or replacement of boat partitions or material
caused by boat design for access to the product are not covered by this warranty.
Non‑warranty maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any marine engine repair establishment or individual. The
use of non‑Mercury parts for non‑warranty maintenance or repairs will not be grounds for
disallowing other warranty work. The use of add‑on (as defined at section 1900 (b)(1) and
(b)(10) of Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations) or modified parts not exempted
by the California Air Resources Board may be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim, at
the discretion of Mercury Marine. Failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a
non‑exempted add‑on or modified part will not be covered.
