What Mercury Marine Will Do
Mercury Marine's sole and exclusive obligation under this warranty is limited to, at our option, repairing a defective part, replacing
such part or parts with new or Mercury Marine certified remanufactured parts, or refunding the purchase price of the Mercury
Marine product. Mercury Marine reserves the right to improve or modify products from time to time without assuming an
obligation to modify products previously manufactured.
How to Obtain Warranty Coverage
The customer must provide Mercury Marine 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 Marine dealer authorized
to service the product. If the purchaser cannot deliver the product to such a dealer, written notice must be given to Mercury
Marine. Mercury Marine will then arrange for the inspection and any covered repair. The purchaser in that case shall pay for all
related transportation charges and travel time. If the service provided is not covered by this warranty, the purchaser shall pay for
all related labor and material and any other expenses associated with that service. The purchaser shall not, unless requested by
Mercury Marine, ship the product or parts of the product directly to Mercury Marine. Proof of registered ownership must be
presented to the dealer at the time warranty service is requested in order to obtain coverage.

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 or replacement of boat

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. If such affirmation,
representation, or warranty is made, it shall not be enforceable against Mercury Marine.
