Your Warranty Rights And Obligations:
California
The California Air Resources Board and American Honda Motor Co., Inc. are pleased to explain

utility and lawn and garden equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
State's stringent anti-smog standards.
Other States
In other areas of the United States your engine must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the
U.S. EPA emission standards for spark-ignited engines at or below 19 kilowatts.
All States
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. 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,
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. 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.
Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage:
The 1995 and later power equipment engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-
related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by American Honda
Motor Co., Inc.
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. American Honda Motor Co., Inc. recommends that
you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your power equipment engine, but American
Honda Motor Co., Inc. 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 that American Honda
Motor Co., Inc. 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 warranty rights and responsibilities, you should write or
