IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION FOR U.S.A. AND
Welcome to the Yamaha Family!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Yamaha marine power. Yamaha is commit-
ted to exceptional customer satisfaction, and we want your ownership experience to be a
satisfying one. Please read the following warranty information to help ensure satisfaction
with your Yamaha.
Yamaha is ready to stand behind your purchase with strong warranty coverage. To be sure you
receive all the benefits of warranty, please take the following steps:
1. Be sure your new Yamaha is registered for warranty. Your boat dealer should do this at the
time of sale. Make sure your dealer gives you a copy of the completed Yamaha registration
card for your records. If you are unsure whether or not your Yamaha is registered, complete the
Warranty Registration card found inside the cover of the Owner's Manual. Mail it to the distribu-
tor for the country in which you live (see step 6 for the correct address). If your Yamaha is not
properly registered, a warranty repair could be unnecessarily delayed while registration records
are checked.
2. Read the Limited Warranty statement which follows these instructions. This warranty applies to
Yamaha outboard motors sold in the United States, whether purchased separately or when
supplied as original equipment by a boat builder. The terms also apply to original equipment
packages sold in Canada, with coverage provided by Yamaha Motor Canada (see ``Warranty
Guide'' for Canadian models). This warranty explains the conditions of the warranty, including
the obligations that your dealer and you as the owner have under the warranty. For example,
your Yamaha outboard must receive a proper pre-delivery inspection (PDI) by the selling deal-
er. Failure to take this important step could jeopardize warranty coverage!
3. If you need warranty repairs, you must take your Yamaha outboard to an authorized Yamaha
outboard dealer. Be aware that not all selling boat dealers are authorized Yamaha dealers.
Only authorized dealers have the factory training, special tools, and Yamaha support needed to
perform warranty repairs.
4. If you are away from home, or your selling dealer is not an authorized Yamaha dealer, use the
following toll-free numbers to find the nearest Yamaha dealer.
