YOUR WARRANTY RiGHTS ANd OBLiGATiONS
The California Air Resources Board and Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A., are pleased
to explain the emission control system warranty on your 2001 and later outboard, personal
watercraft, or boat equipped with a personal watercraft engine. In California, new outboard
or personal watercraft engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State's
stringent anti-smog standards. Yamaha must warrant the emission control system on your
outboard, personal watercraft, or boat equipped with a personal watercraft engine for the
periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper main-
tenance of your outboard or personal watercraft engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel injection
system, the ignition system, and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses, belts,
connectors and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. will repair your out-
board or personal watercraft engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor.
mANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Select emission control parts from model year 2001 and later outboard or personal water-
craft engines are warranted for 4 years, or for 250 hours of use, whichever occurs first. How-
ever, warranty coverage based on the hourly period is only permitted for outboard engines
and personal watercraft equipped with appropriate hour meters. If any emission-related part
on your engine is defective under warranty, the part will be repaired or replaced by Yamaha
Motor Corporation, U.S.A.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESpONSiBiLiTiES:
• As the outboard, personal watercraft, or boat equipped with a personal watercraft
engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your owner's manual. Yamaha recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your outboard or personal watercraft engine, but Yamaha cannot deny
warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
• As the outboard, personal watercraft, or boat equipped with a personal watercraft
engine owner, you should however be aware that Yamaha may deny you warranty
coverage if your outboard or personal watercraft engine or a part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for presenting your outboard, personal watercraft, or boat equipped
with a personal watercraft engine to a Yamaha distribution center 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 warranty rights and responsibilities, you should
contact Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. at 1-800-962-7926.
