Product Warranty Information

The repair or replacement of parts or the performance of service to Product under this limited warranty
does not extend the life of this limited warranty beyond its original expiration date.
California residents who purchased or warranty-registered a Product in California should refer to BRP's
California Emissions Control Warranty Statement.
Note that the duration and any other modalities of the warranty coverage are subject to the applicable na-
tional or local legislation in the customer's country.
FOR PRODUCTS SOLD IN AUSTRALIA ONLY
Nothing in these Warranty terms and conditions should be taken to exclude, restrict or modify the appli-
cation of any condition, warranty, guarantee, right or remedy conferred or implied under the Competition
and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), including the Australian Consumer Law or any other law, where to do so
would contravene that law, or cause any part of these terms and conditions to be void. The benefits given
to you under this limited warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies that you have under Austra-
lian law.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are
entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably fore-
seeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to
be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
5. Conditions to Have Warranty Coverage
This limited warranty coverage is available only if each of the following conditions has been fulfilled:
The Product must be purchased as new and unused by its first owner from an OE Distributor/Dealer au-
thorized to distribute Evinrude products in the country in which the sale occurred;
- The BRP specified pre-delivery inspection process must be completed, documented and signed by the
purchaser and Distributor/Dealer;
- The Product must have undergone proper registration by an authorized OE Distributor/Dealer;
- The Product must be purchased in the country in which the purchaser resides; and
- Routine maintenance outlined in the Operator's Guide must be timely performed in order to maintain war-
ranty coverage. BRP reserves the right to make warranty coverage contingent upon proof of proper main-
tenance as outlined in the maintenance schedule, proper service, pre-ride inspection and storage
conditions.
BRP will not honor this limited warranty to any private use owner or commercial use owner if the preceding
conditions have not been met. Such limitations are necessary in order to allow BRP to preserve both the
safety of its products, and also that of its consumers and the general public.
6. What to do to Obtain Warranty Coverage
The customer must cease using the Product upon appearance of an anomaly.
The registered owner must notify an authorized servicing OE Distributor/ Dealer within two (2) days of the
appearance of a defect. BRP is not responsible for damages caused by the use of a Product after the ap-
pearance of a defect. Owner must bring Product, including any defective part therein, to OE Distributor/
Dealer promptly after the appearance of the defect, and in any event, within the warranty period, and must
provide OE Distributor/Dealer with reasonable opportunity to repair the defect. The expenses of transport-
ing Product to and from OE Distributor/Dealer for warranty service are to be borne by the owner.
The owner may also be required to present proof of purchase to OE Distributor/Dealer and is required to
sign the repair work order prior to the start of the repair in order to validate the warranty repair.
All parts replaced under this limited warranty become the property of BRP.
Note that the notification period is subject to the applicable national or local legislation in customer's coun-
try.
