Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), the California Air Resources Board ("CARB") and Tecumseh Products Co. are pleased to explain the Federal and California Emission Control Systems Warranty on your new utility or lawn and garden equipment engine. In California, new 1995 and later utility and lawn and garden equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards.

Tecumseh Products Co. will warrant the emission control system on your utility or lawn and garden equipment engine for the periods of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or improper maintenance of your utility or lawn and garden equipment engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, ignition system and exhaust system. Also included may be the compression release system and other emission-related assemblies.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Tecumseh Products Co. will repair your utility or lawn and garden equipment engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, parts and labor.

MANUFACTURER'S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE

Emission control systems on 1995 and later model year California utility and lawn and garden equipment engines are warranted for two years as hereinafter noted. In other states, 1997 and later model year engines are also warranted for two years. If, during such warranty period, any emission-related part on your engine is defective in materials or workmanship, the part will be repaired or replaced by Tecumseh Products Co.

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES

As the utility or lawn and garden equipment engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner's Manual, but Tecumseh Products Co. will not deny warranty solely due to the lack of receipts or for your failure to provide written evidence of the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

As the utility or lawn and garden equipment engine owner, you should, however, be aware that Tecumseh Products Co. may deny you warranty coverage if your utility or lawn and garden equipment or a part thereof has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
