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. Honda recommends
that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance
on your power equipment
engine, but Honda 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 Honda may deny you war-
ranty 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 emission related warranty repairs should be completed
in a reasonable
amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions
regarding your
emission warranty rights and responsibilities,
you should contact the Honda office in your region:
