Epa Emissions Regulations - Mercury 225 Manual

EPA Emissions Regulations

All new outboards manufactured by Mercury Marine are certified
to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, as
conforming to the requirements of the regulations for the control
of air pollution from new outboard motors. This certification is
contingent on certain adjustments set to factory standards. For
this reason, the factory procedure for servicing the product must
be strictly followed and, wherever practicable, returned to the
original intent of the design. Maintenance, replacement, or repair
of the emission control devices and systems may be performed
by any marine spark ignition (SI) engine repair establishment or
individual.
EMISSION CERTIFICATION LABEL
An emission certification label, showing emission levels and
engine specifications directly related to emissions, is placed on
the engine at the time of manufacture.
