Emission System Warranty - Honda HRR216VKA Owner's Manual

Your new Honda Power Equipment engine complies with the U.S. EPA, Environment
Canada, and State of California emission regulations (models certified for sale in
California only). American Honda Motor Co., Inc. provides the emission warranty
coverage for engines in the United States and its territories. Honda Canada Inc. provides
the emission warranty for engines in the 13 provinces and territories of Canada. In the
remainder of this Emission Control System Warranty, American Honda Motor Company
Inc. and Honda Canada Inc. will be referred to as Honda.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:
CALIFORNIA
The California Air Resources Board and Honda are pleased to explain the emission
control system warranty on your Honda Power Equipment engine. In California, new
spark-ignited small off-road equipment engines must be designed, built, and equipped to
meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards.
OTHER STATES, U.S. TERRITORIES, AND CANADA
In other areas of the United States and in Canada, your engine must be designed, built,
and equipped to meet the U.S. EPA and Environment Canada emission standards for
spark-ignited engines at or below 19 kilowatts. Specific Honda products that do not meet
the California emissions regulations can be identified by a "Not for sale in California"
decal.
ALL OF THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA
Honda must warrant the emission control system on your power equipment engine for the
period of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance of your power equipment engine. Where a warrantable condition exists,
Honda will repair your power equipment engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts,
and labor.
Your emission control system may include such parts as the carburetor or fuel injection
system, the ignition system, and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses,
connectors, and other emission-related assemblies. (See adjacent table for additional
covered parts).
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITY:
As the power equipment engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the
required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. Honda recommends that you retain
all receipts covering maintenance on your power equipment engine, but Honda cannot
deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the power equipment engine owner, you should however be aware Honda may deny
you warranty coverage if your power equipment engine or a part has failed due to abuse,
neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your power equipment engine to a Honda Power
Equipment dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed
in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your emissions warranty rights and responsibilities,
you should contact the Honda Office in your region:

WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Honda power equipment engines sold in the United States and Canada are covered by this
warranty for a period of two years from the date of delivery to the original retail purchaser
or the length of the Honda Distributor's Limited Warranty, whichever is longer. This warranty
is transferable to each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the warranty period.
If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced
by Honda without charge for diagnosis, parts, or labor. All defective parts replaced under
this warranty become the property of Honda. A list of warranted parts is in the adjacent
column. Normal maintenance items, such as spark plugs and filters, that are on the
warranted parts list are warranted up to their required replacement interval only.
Honda will also replace other engine components damaged by a failure of any warranted
part during the warranty period.
Only Honda approved replacement parts may be used in the performance of any warranty
repairs and must be provided without charge to the owner. The use of replacement parts
not equivalent to the original parts may impair the effectiveness of your engine emission
control system. If such a replacement part is used in the repair or maintenance of your
engine, and an authorized Honda dealer determines it is defective or causes a failure of a
warranted part, your claim for repair of your engine may be denied. If the part in question
is not related to the reason your engine requires repair, your claim will not be denied.

TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
You must, at your own expense, take your Honda Power Equipment engine or the product
on which it is installed, along with your sales registration card or other proof of original
purchase date, to any Honda Power Equipment dealer who is authorized by Honda to
service that Honda product during his normal business hours. Claims for repair or
adjustment found to be caused solely by defects in material or workmanship will not be
denied because the engine was not properly maintained and used.
If you are unable to obtain emission warranty service or are dissatisfied with the warranty
service you received, contact the owner of the dealership involved. Normally this should
resolve your problem. However, if you require further assistance, contact the Honda office
in your region. Refer to adjacent column for contact information.

by this warranty. This warranty does not extend to emission control systems or parts that

misfueling, improper storage, collision, the incorporation of, or use of, unsuitable
attachments, or the unauthorized alteration of any part.
