TECHNICAL AND CONSUMER INFORMATION
59
Only Honda approved replacement parts may be used in the performance of any warranty repairs and must be
provided without charge to the owner. The use of replacement parts not equivalent to the original parts may impair the
effectiveness of your engine emission control system. If such a replacement part is used in the repair or maintenance
of your engine, and an authorized Honda dealer determines it is defective or causes a failure of a warranted part, your
claim for repair of your engine may be denied. If the part in question is not related to the reason your engine requires
repair, your claim will not be denied.
To Obtain Warranty Service:
You must take your Honda Power Equipment engine or the product on which it is installed, along with your warranty
registration card or other proof of original purchase date, at your expense, to any Honda Power Equipment dealer who
is authorized by American Honda Motor Co., Inc. to sell and service that Honda product during his normal business
hours. Claims for repair or adjustment found to be caused solely by defects in material or workmanship will not be
denied because the engine was not properly maintained and used.
If you are unable to obtain warranty service, or are dissatisfied with the warranty service you received, contact the
owner of the dealership involved. Normally this should resolve your problem. However, if you require further
assistance, write or call the Power Equipment Customer Relations Department of American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
Refer to page60 for contact information.
