Explanation of Emissions Control Warranty Provisions
Viper Engines are designed, built and equipped to meet all EPA
requirements. It warrants that it is free from defects in material and
workmanship that could cause failure to the warranted part; and that
it is identical in all material respects to the engine described in the
manufacturer's application for certication. When a warrantable condition
exists, Viper will repair your engine at no cost to you, including parts and
labor. The engine emissions label will indicate certification information.

to the use of add-on or modied parts.
The warranty on emissions-related parts is as follows:
• Anywarrantedpartthatisnotscheduledforreplacementasrequired
maintenance in the owner's manual supplied, is warranted for the war-
ranty period stated above. If any such part fails during the period of
warranty coverage, that part will be repaired or replaced at no charge to
the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty will be
warranted for the remaining warranty period.
• Anywarrantedpartthatisscheduledonlyforregularinspectioninthe
owner's manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty period. Any
such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for
the remaining warranty period.
• Anywarrantedpartthatisscheduledforreplacementasrequiredmain-
tenance in the owner's manual supplied, is warranted for the period of
time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the
part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part will be repaired
or replaced at no charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced
under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to
the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
• AddonormodifiedpartsthatarenotexemptedbytheAirResources
Board may not be used. The use of any nonexempted add on or
modified parts by the owner will be grounds for disallowing a war-
ranty claim. The manufacturer will not be liable to warrant failures
of warranted parts caused by the use of a nonexempted add on or
modified part.
These items will be covered for a period of two years from the date
of the original purchase. Viper warrants that: the components are
designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the EPA; that they are free from defects in ma-
terial and workmanship that could cause failure to the engine or other;
and that the components used are identical in all material respects to
the engine described in the manufacturer's application for certifica-
tion. The warranty period begins on the date the engine is originally
purchased.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR REQUIREMENTS
The owner is responsible for the proper use and maintenance of the
engine. Ardisam, Inc. recommends that all receipts and records cov-
ering the performance of regular maintenance be retained in case
questions arise. If the engine is resold during the warranty period,
the maintenance records should be transferred to each subsequent
owner. Ardisam, Inc. reserves the right to deny warranty coverage if
the engine has not been properly maintained; however, Ardisam, Inc.
may not deny warranty repairs solely because of the lack of repair
maintenance or failure to keep maintenance records.
Normal maintenance replacement or repair of emission control devices
and systems may be performed by any repair establishment or individuals;
however, warranty repairs must be performed by an Ardisam authorized
service center. Any replacement parts or service that is equivalent in
performance and durability may be used in non-warranty maintenance
or repairs, and shall not reduce the warranty obligations of the engine
manufacturer.
