CMD-4081850 / 90-860094030 SEPTEMBER 2003 Page 5
HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE
The customer must provide Mercury with a reasonable opportunity to repair, and
reasonable access to the product for warranty service. Warranty claims shall be made by
delivering the product for inspection to a Mercury dealer authorized to service the product.
If purchaser cannot deliver the product to such a dealer, written notice must be given to
Mercury. We will then arrange for the inspection and any covered repair. Purchaser in that
case shall pay for all related transportation charges and/or travel time. If the service
provided is not covered by this warranty, purchaser shall pay for all related labor and
material, and any other expenses associated with that service. Purchaser shall not, unless
requested by Mercury, ship the product or parts of the product directly to Mercury. The
warranty registration card is the only valid registration identification and must be presented
to the dealer at the time warranty service is requested in order to obtain coverage.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
This limited warranty does not cover routine maintenance items, tune ups, adjustments,
normal wear and tear, damage caused by abuse, abnormal use, use of a propeller or gear
ratio that does not allow the engine to run in its recommended RPM range (see the
Operation, Maintenance And Warranty Manual), operation of the product in a manner
inconsistent with the recommended operation/duty cycle section of the Operation,
Maintenance And Warranty Manual, neglect, accident, submersion, improper installation
(proper installation specifications and techniques are set forth in the installation instructions
for the product), improper service, use of an accessory or part which damages the Mercury
product and was not manufactured or sold by us, jet pump impellers and liners, operation
with fuels, oils or lubricants which are not suitable for use with the product (see the
Operation, Maintenance And Warranty Manual), alteration or removal of parts, water
entering the engine through the fuel intake, air intake or exhaust system or damage to the
product from insufficient cooling water caused by blockage of the cooling system by a
foreign body, running the engine out of water, mounting the engine too high on the transom,
or running the boat with the engine trimmed out too far. Use of the product for racing or other
competitive activity, or operating with a racing type lower unit, at any point, even by a prior
owner of the product, voids the warranty.
Expenses related to haul-out, launch, towing, storage, telephone, rental, inconvenience,
slip fees, insurance coverage, loan payments, loss of time, loss of income, or any other type
of incidental or consequential damages are not covered by this warranty. Also, expenses
associated with the removal and/or replacement of boat partitions or material caused by
boat design for access to the product are not covered by this warranty.
No individual or entity, including Mercury Marine authorized dealers, has been given
authority by Mercury Marine to make any affirmation, representation or warranty regarding
the product, other than those contained in this limited warranty, and if made, shall not be
enforceable against Mercury Marine.

PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. TO THE EXTENT THAT
THEY CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE LIFE OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY. INCIDENTAL AND
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARE EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE UNDER THIS
WARRANTY. SOME STATES/COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW FOR THE
DISCLAIMERS, LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS IDENTIFIED ABOVE. AS A
RESULT, THEY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC
LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER LEGAL RIGHTS WHICH VARY
