DURING THE PERIOD OF THIS WARRANTY
Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of
America will repair or replace any warranted part
deemed defective by Yamaha during the scope of
the warranty without charge to the owner, including
parts, labor, and diagnosis. This work must be done
at an authorized Yamaha dealer. Give notice to an
authorized Yamaha dealer of any apparent defect(s)
within a reasonable period of time after discovery.
The specialty vehicle engine must be made avail-
able for inspection by an authorized Yamaha dealer.
OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY: The owner of the
specialty vehicle engine is responsible for the per-
formance of required maintenance (see your
Owner’s/Operator’s Manual). Receipts and mainte-
nance records covering the performance of regular
maintenance should be retained in the event ques-
tions arise concerning maintenance. The receipts
should be transferred to each subsequent owner of
this specialty vehicle engine.
The emission control systems of your Yamaha spe-
cialty vehicle engine were designed, built, tested,
and certified as being in conformity with California
emission control regulations using genuine Yamaha
parts. Accordingly, it is recommended that any
replacement part(s) used for maintenance, replace-
ment, or repair of emission control systems be
Yamaha parts. The owner may elect to have main-
tenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and systems performed by any
repair establishment or individual, and may elect to
use parts other than Yamaha parts for such mainte-
nance, replacement, or repair without invalidating
this warranty. However, the cost of such service or
parts will not be covered under the warranty.
EXCLUSIONS: No warranty coverage will be
allowed if the part(s) failure was caused by
owner/operator abuse, neglect, tampering, improp-
er adjustment unless performed by a dealer during
warranty repair work, modification, misuse, alter-
ation, or improper maintenance (see your Owner’s/
Operator’s Manual).
Use of parts which are not qualitatively equivalent to
genuine Yamaha parts, improper service, or lack of
required maintenance which causes failure of a
warranted part may constitute abuse and/or improp-
er service, thereby invalidating warranty liability
hereunder.
This warranty does not cover damage resulting from
accidents, acts of nature, or other events or occur-
rences beyond the control of Yamaha. Yamaha
Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America
expressly disclaims responsibility for any and all
consequential damages, such as loss of time,
inconvenience, loss of use of the specialty vehicle,
or commercial loss.
