WARRANTY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q. What costs are my responsibility during the warranty period?
A. The customer's responsibility includes all costs of normal maintenance services, non-warran-
ty repairs, accident, and collision damages.
Q. What are some examples of "abnormal" strain, neglect, or abuse?
A. These terms are general and overlap each other in areas. Specific examples include:
Running the Sport Boat out of oil, operating the boat with a broken or damaged part which
causes another part to fail, and so on. If you have any specific questions on operation or main-
tenance, please contact your Yamaha Sport Boat dealer for advice.
Q. Does the warranty cover incidental costs such as transportation due to a failure?
A. No. The warranty is limited to repair of the Sport Boat itself.
Q. May I perform any or all of the recommended maintenance shown in the Owner's Manual
instead of having the dealer do them?
A. Yes, if you are a qualified mechanic and follow the procedures specified in the Owner's and
Service Manual. We do recommend, however, that items requiring special tools or equipment
be done by a Yamaha Sport Boat dealer.

Q. Will the warranty be void or cancelled if I do not operate or maintain my new Sport Boat exact-
ly as specified in the Owner's Manual?
A. No. The warranty on a new Sport Boat cannot be "voided" or "cancelled." However, if a par-
ticular failure is caused by operation or maintenance other than as shown in the Owner's
Manual, that failure may not be covered under warranty.
Q. What responsibility does my dealer have under this warranty?
A. Each Yamaha Sport Boat dealer is expected to:
1. Completely set up each new Sport Boat before sale.
2. Explain the operation, maintenance, and warranty requirements to your satisfaction at the
time of sale, and upon your request at any later date. In addition, each Yamaha Sport Boat
dealer is held responsible for his setup, service and warranty repair work.
Q. Is the warranty transferable to second owners?
A. Yes. The remainder of the existing warranty can be transferred upon request. The unit has to
be inspected and re-registered by an authorized Yamaha Sport Boat dealer for the policy to
remain effective.
