Conditions That Must Be Met in Order to Obtain Warranty Coverage
Warranty coverage is available only to retail customers that purchase from a dealer authorized by Mercury Marine to distribute the
product in the country in which the sale occurred, and then only after the pre‑delivery inspection process specified by Mercury Marine
is completed and documented. Warranty coverage becomes available upon proper registration of the product by the authorized
dealer. Inaccurate warranty registration information regarding recreational use or subsequent change of use from recreational to
commercial (unless properly reregistered) may void the warranty at the sole discretion of Mercury Marine. Routine maintenance
must be performed according to the maintenance schedule in the Operation, Maintenance & Warranty manual in order to obtain
warranty coverage. Mercury Marine reserves the right to make any warranty coverage contingent upon proof of proper maintenance.
What Mercury Marine Will Do
Mercury Marine's sole and exclusive obligation under this warranty is limited to, at our option, repairing a defective part, replacing
such part or parts with new or Mercury Marine certified remanufactured parts, or refunding the purchase price of the Mercury Marine
product. Mercury Marine reserves the right to improve or modify products from time to time without assuming an obligation to modify
products previously manufactured.
How to Obtain Warranty Coverage
The customer must provide Mercury Marine 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 Marine dealer authorized to service the
product. If the purchaser cannot deliver the product to such a dealer, written notice must be given to Mercury Marine. Mercury Marine
will then arrange for the inspection and any covered repair. The purchaser in that case shall pay for all related transportation charges
and travel time. If the service provided is not covered by this warranty, the purchaser shall pay for all related labor and material and
any other expenses associated with that service. The purchaser shall not, unless requested by Mercury Marine, ship the product or
parts of the product directly to Mercury Marine. Proof of registered ownership must be presented to the dealer at the time warranty
service is requested in order to obtain coverage.
