OUTBOARD MOTOR SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
The Honda BF8D/BFP8D/BF9.9D/
BFP9.9D/BF15D/BFP15D and
BF20D outboard motors are designed
for use with boats that have a suitable
manufacturer’s power
recommendation. Other uses can
result in injury to the operator or
damage to the outboard motor and
other property.
Most injuries or property damage can
be prevented if you follow all
instructions in this manual and on the
outboard motor. The most common
hazards are discussed in this chapter,
along with the best way to protect
yourself and others.

Operator Responsibility
• It is the operator’s responsibility to
provide the necessary safeguards to
protect people and property.
Know how to stop the engine
quickly in case of emergency.
Understand the use of all controls.
• Stop the engine immediately if
anyone falls overboard, and do not
run the engine while the boat is
near anyone in the water.
• Always stop the engine if you must
leave the controls for any reason.

• Attach the emergency stop switch
lanyard securely to the operator.
• Always wear a PFD (Personal
Flotation Device) while on the
boat.
• Familiarize yourself with all laws
and regulations relating to boating
and the use of outboard motors.
• Be sure that anyone who operates
the outboard motor receives proper
instruction.
• Be sure the outboard motor is
properly mounted on the boat.
• Do not remove the engine cover
while the engine is running.

OUTBOARD MOTOR SAFETY
Refuel With Care

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

• Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode.
Refuel outdoors, in a
well-ventilated area, with the
engine stopped. Never smoke near
gasoline, and keep other flames and
sparks away.

Exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can
cause loss of consciousness and may
lead to death.

• Remove any portable fuel tank
from the boat for refueling. Keep
the portable fuel tank away from
the battery or other potential spark
sources.
• Refuel carefully to avoid spilling
fuel. Avoid overfilling the fuel
tank.
• After refueling, tighten the filler
cap securely. If any fuel is spilled,
make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.

If you run the engine in an area that is
confined, or even partly enclosed, the
air you breathe could contain a
dangerous amount of exhaust gas.
Never run your outboard inside a
garage or other enclosure.

The throttle grip controls engine

The throttle friction adjuster adjusts
resistance to throttle grip rotation.

An index mark on the tiller arm
shows throttle position and is helpful
for setting the throttle correctly when
starting (p. 50).

Turn the adjuster clockwise to
increase friction for holding a throttle
setting while cruising.
Turn the adjuster counterclockwise to
decrease friction for easy throttle grip
rotation.

The gearshift lever is used to select F
(forward), N (neutral), or R (reverse)
gears.
The engine can be started with the
gearshift lever in the N (neutral)
position only.
If the gearshift lever is in the F
(forward) or R (reverse) position, the
recoil starter will not operate, and the
electric starter button (applicable
models) will not operate the starter
motor.

INSTALLATION
Correct and secure installation is
essential for safe boating and good
performance. Follow the installation
instructions provided in this manual.

POWER REQUIREMENTS
Before installation, check to be sure
that the outboard motor does not
exceed the recommended maximum
horsepower for the boat on which it is
to be installed. Refer to the boat’s
certification plate for recommended
maximum horsepower. If the
certification plate information is not
available, contact the boat dealer or
manufacturer.
For most applications, the outboard
motor should have a horsepower
rating which provides 80% of the
maximum recommended horsepower
for the boat.

BOAT TRANSOM
REQUIREMENTS
Honda BF8D/BFP8D/BF9.9D/
BFP9.9D/BF15D/BFP15D and
BF20D outboard motors can be
installed on a boat transom having a
thickness range of 1.3 – 2.2 inches
(35 – 57 mm).

4 in (100 mm) or more below the
surface of the water. For unusual
situations, see your Honda Marine

INSTALLATION
When the outboard motor is installed
extremely low, the idle port may be
immersed and the engine may
become hard to start or may run
poorly. Check that the idle port is
high enough from the water level
when the engine is stopped with the
boat fully loaded.
If the outboard motor is installed too
low, the boat will squat and be hard to
plane, and the outboard motor will
spray water that may enter the boat. It
will tend to porpoise, and high-speed
stability will be reduced.

If the transom needs to be modified
to accommodate the outboard motor,
contact the boat manufacturer and
follow their recommendations for
corrective action.

BATTERY CONNECTIONS
– TO ACCESSORIES

BATTERY

Honda BF8D/BFP8D/BF9.9D/
BFP9.9D/BF15D/BFP15D and
BF20D outboard motors produce a
12-volt, 6 or 12-ampere
battery-charging current and are
equipped for connection to a 12-volt
battery. The battery-charging circuit
is protected by a 20-ampere fuse
located in the engine compartment.
The outboard motor’s 12-volt output
is designed to charge a ‘‘starting or
cranking’’ battery only. It is not
intended to charge a ‘‘deep-cycle’’
type battery. Lights and electrical
accessories for the boat should be
connected to the battery.
The battery should be kept in a
corrosion-resistant battery box that is
securely mounted in a location away
from the fuel tank and protected from
water and direct sunlight.

Types With Electric Starter
These types are equipped with battery
cables. The positive (+) cable has a
red band at the battery connector. The
negative (-) cable has a black band at
the battery connector.
For electric starter operation, use a
12-volt battery with an ampere-hour
rating of at least 35 Ah (CCA 270).

Types With Manual Start
These types are equipped with a
12-volt DC battery-charging
receptacle which can be wired to a
12-volt battery to power lights and
electrical accessories for the boat.

OPERATION
SAFE OPERATING
PRECAUTIONS
To safely realize the full potential of
this outboard motor, you need a
complete understanding of its
operation and a certain amount of
practice with its controls.
Before operating the outboard motor
for the f irst time, please review the
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION on page 7 and the
chapter titled BEFORE OPERATION.
For your safety, do not start or run the
engine in a conf ined or partly
enclosed area. Your engine’s exhaust
contains poisonous carbon monoxide,
a colorless, odorless gas that can
collect rapidly. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause loss of
consciousness and may lead to death.

BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
Break-in period: 10 hours
Proper break-in operation allows the
moving parts to wear in smoothly for
best performance and long service
life. Avoid continuous operation at a
steady speed.

First 15 minutes:

Next 60 minutes:
Run the engine up to a maximum of
4,000 to 5,000 rpm, which is about
50% to 80% of maximum throttle
opening. Operating at maximum
4,000 ~ 5,000 rpm should be limited
to 50% of the 60 minutes.
30-second full-throttle bursts are OK,
but do not operate the engine
continuously at full throttle.

Run the engine at trolling speed. Use
the minimum throttle opening
necessary to operate the boat at a safe
trolling speed.

For boats that plane easily, bring the
boat up on plane, and then reduce the
throttle opening to the recommended
rpm range.

Next 45 minutes:

Next 8 hours:

Run the engine up to a maximum of
2,000 to 3,000 rpm, which is about
10% to 30% of maximum throttle
opening. Operating at maximum
2,000 ~ 3,000 rpm should be limited
to 50% of the 45 minutes.

Do not run the engine at full throttle
for more than 5 minutes at a time.

OPERATION
CRUISING

Transom Angle

Engine Speed

Install the outboard motor at the best
transom angle for stable cruising and
maximum power. See page 46 for
adjustment procedure.

For best fuel economy, limit the
throttle opening to 80%. Use the
throttle friction control (p. 59 or
p. 60) to help you hold a steady
speed.
For rough water conditions or large
waves, slow down to prevent the
propeller from rising out of the water.

Transom angle too large: Causes boat
to ‘‘squat.’’
Transom angle too small: Causes boat
to ‘‘bow steer’’ (sprayed water may
enter the boat).
It is necessary to adjust the transom
angle of the outboard motor to
compensate for changes in boat load,
weight distribution, water conditions,
or propeller selection.
Under normal running conditions, the
boat will perform best when the
antiventilation plate is level with the
water surface.

When cruising into a high wind,
adjust the outboard motor down
slightly to level the boat and improve
stability. With a tail wind, adjust the
outboard motor up slightly (p. 46).
Excessive trim/tilt angle during
operation can cause propeller
ventilation, overheating, and water
pump damage. This type of damage is
not covered by the Distributor’s
Limited Warranty (p. 128).

SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR
THE IMPORTANCE OF
MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance is essential for
safe, economical, and trouble-free
operation. It will also help reduce air
pollution.

Improperly maintaining this
outboard motor or failure to
correct a problem before
operation can cause a
malfunction in which you could
be seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the inspection and
maintenance recommendations
and schedules in this Owner’s
Manual.

To help you properly care for your
outboard motor, the following pages
include a maintenance schedule,
routine inspection procedures, and
simple maintenance procedures using
basic hand tools. Other service tasks
that are more difficult or require
special tools are best handled by
professionals and are normally
performed by a Honda technician or
other qualified mechanic.
The maintenance schedule applies to
normal operating conditions. If you
operate your outboard motor under
unusual conditions, consult an
authorized Honda Marine dealer for
recommendations applicable to your
individual needs and use.

Remember that your authorized
Honda Marine dealer knows your
outboard motor best and is fully
equipped to maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and
reliability, use only new, Honda
Genuine parts or their equivalents for
repair and replacement.
Maintenance, replacement, or
repair of the emission control
devices and systems may be
performed by any marine engine
repair establishment or individual,
using parts that are ‘‘certified’’ to
EPA standards.

Honda will not deny a claim for
warranty coverage simply because
you did not maintain your outboard.
However, any part that fails due to
lack of maintenance, or improper
maintenance will not be covered
under your product warranty.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

Safety Precautions

Some of the most important safety
precautions follow. However, we
cannot warn you of every conceivable
hazard that can arise in performing
maintenance. Only you can decide
whether or not you should perform a
given task.

• Make sure the engine is off before
you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will eliminate several
potential hazards:
─ Carbon monoxide poisoning
from engine exhaust.
Do not start or run the engine in
a confined or partly enclosed
area.

Failure to properly follow
maintenance instructions and
precautions can cause you to be
seriously hurt or killed.

─ Burns from hot parts.
Let the engine and exhaust
system cool before touching.

Always follow the procedures
and precautions in the Owner’s
Manual.

─ Injury from moving parts.
Do not run the engine unless
instructed to do so.

• Read the instructions before you
begin, and make sure you have the
tools and skills required.
• To reduce the possibility of fire or
explosion, be careful when
working around gasoline. Use only
a nonflammable solvent, not
gasoline, to clean parts. Keep
cigarettes, sparks, and flames away
from all fuel-related parts.
• Wear gloves when handling the
propeller to protect your hands
from sharp edges.

STORAGE
Fuel
Depending on the region where you
operate your outboard, fuel
formulations may deteriorate and
oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration
and oxidation can occur in as little as
15 days and may cause damage to the
carburetors and fuel system. Please
check with your servicing dealer for
local storage recommendations.
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate
in storage. Deteriorated gasoline will
cause hard starting, and it leaves gum
deposits that clog the fuel system. If
the gasoline in your fuel tank and
carburetor deteriorates during storage,
you may need to have the carburetor
and other fuel system components
serviced or replaced.

The length of time that gasoline can
be left in your fuel tank and
carburetor without causing functional
problems will vary with such factors
as gasoline blend, your storage
temperatures, and whether the fuel
tank is partially or completely filled.
The air in a partially filled fuel tank
promotes fuel deterioration. Very
warm storage temperatures accelerate
fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration
problems may occur in less than 15
days, if the gasoline was not fresh
when you filled the fuel tank.
The Distributor’s Limited Warranty
(p. 128) does not cover fuel system
damage or engine performance
problems resulting from neglected
storage preparation.

Adding a Fuel Stabilizer
When adding a fuel stabilizer, fill the
fuel tank with fresh gasoline. If only
partially filled, air in the tank will
promote fuel deterioration during
storage. If you keep an additional
container of gasoline for refueling, be
sure that it contains only fresh
gasoline.
1. Add Honda Marine fuel stabilizer
following the instructions on the
label.
2. After adding a fuel stabilizer, run
the engine in water for 10 minutes
to be sure that the treated gasoline
has replaced the untreated gasoline
in the carburetor.
3. Turn the engine OFF.

You can extend fuel storage life by
adding a gasoline stabilizer that is
formulated for that purpose, or you
can avoid fuel deterioration problems
by draining all the fuel from the fuel
tank and carburetor.

• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.

3. After the fuel has drained from the
carburetor, tighten the drain screw
securely.
4. Drain the fuel tank into an

STORAGE
Engine Oil

STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

1. Change the engine oil and the oil
filter (p. 76 – 78).

Select a well-ventilated storage area.
If possible, avoid storage areas with
high humidity.

2. Remove the spark plugs (p. 83),
and remove the emergency stop
switch clip from the emergency
stop switch.

To carry the outboard motor, hold it
by the carrying handle, or hold by the
carrying handle and the lug beneath
the engine cover latch, as shown.
Lifting the outboard motor by the
engine cover, or using the installed
outboard motor as a handle or lever
to move the boat, can damage the
outboard motor.

3. Pour 1 – 2 teaspoons (5 – 10 cm3)
of clean engine oil into each
cylinder.
4. Pull the starter grip several times to
distribute the oil in the cylinder.

CARRYING HANDLE

5. Reinstall the spark plugs (p. 84).

If your portable fuel tank contains
gasoline, store it away from any
appliance that operates with a flame,
such as a furnace, water heater, or
clothes dryer. Also avoid any area
with a spark-producing electric
motor, or where power tools are
operated.

STORAGE
Any other horizontal storage position
may cause damage to the outboard
motor or oil leakage.

PROTECTOR

Store the outboard motor either
vertically or horizontally with the
tiller handle side up.

CASE PROTECTOR

If it is necessary to store the outboard
horizontally, drain the carburetor
(p. 96) and drain the engine oil
(p. 76), before removing the outboard
motor from the boat.
Fold the tiller handle, and rest the
outboard motor on its case protectors.
Be sure all water has drained from the
outboard motor before placing it on
its side, so no residual water can enter
the engine exhaust port.

Cover the outboard motor to keep out
dust. Do not use plastic sheet as a
dust cover. A nonporous cover will
trap moisture, promoting rust and
corrosion.

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
Check your outboard motor as
described in the BEFORE
OPERATION chapter of this manual.
If the cylinders were coated with oil
during storage preparation, the engine
may smoke briefly at startup. This is
normal.

TRANSPORTING
WITH OUTBOARD MOTOR
INSTALLED ON BOAT

WITH OUTBOARD MOTOR
REMOVED FROM BOAT

When trailering a boat with the
outboard motor attached, always
disconnect the fuel line from the
portable fuel tank and tighten the
friction lever securely (p. 61).

Secure the outboard motor in either
the vertical or horizontal position
shown on p. 98.

Lifting the outboard motor by the
engine cover, or using the installed
outboard motor as a handle or lever
to move the boat, can damage the
outboard motor.

The preferred method is to leave the
engine in the normal running
position, but if there is insufficient
road clearance, you can tilt the
outboard motor using a commercially
available outboard motor support bar
available through your dealer. Refer
to the manufacturer’s instructions for
using an outboard motor support bar.

BATTERY WILL NOT
CHARGE AND ELECTRIC
STARTER WILL NOT
OPERATE
The battery-charging circuit and the
electric starter relay circuit are
protected by the 20-ampere fuse. If
the fuse burns out, the engine will not
charge the battery, and the electric
starter will not operate. The engine
can be started using the recoil starter
or the emergency starter rope.
The ignition switch is protected by
the 20-ampere fuse. If the fuse burns
out, the engine will not start or run,
and the power tilt switch will not
operate.

Fuse Replacement
1. With the engine stopped, remove
the engine cover.
2. Remove the fuse case lid.

3. Remove and inspect the fuse. If
burnt out, install a replacement fuse
of the specified rating. The
outboard motor only comes with
one spare fuse in the fuse holder.

(remote control type)

106

If oil pressure becomes low, the green
indicator will go off, and the engine
protection system will limit engine
speed. If you are at cruising speed,
engine speed will decrease
automatically.

If the throttle is closed suddenly after
full throttle operation, engine speed
may drop below the specified idle
rpm, and that could activate the
engine protection system
momentarily.

When normal oil pressure is restored,
the engine speed will gradually rise to
normal engine speed.

If low oil pressure activates the
engine protection system, stop the
engine, check the engine oil level
(p. 75), and add oil if needed.

Remote control types are equipped
with a buzzer that sounds
continuously when the green
indicator goes off.
The buzzer sound stops below an
engine speed of 1,400 rpm.
Low oil pressure may be the result of
a low engine oil level, or there may
be a problem with the engine
lubrication system.

With the engine oil at the
recommended level, restart the
engine. If the lubrication system is
OK, the green indicator should come
on within 30 seconds, and the engine
will respond normally to throttle grip
or control lever operation.
If the engine protection system
remains activated after 30 seconds,
return to the nearest boat landing, and
have the outboard motor inspected by

SUBMERGED OUTBOARD
MOTOR
A submerged outboard motor must be
serviced immediately after it is
recovered from the water in order to
minimize corrosion.
If there is a Honda Marine dealership
nearby, take the outboard motor to the
dealer immediately. If you are far
from a dealer, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the engine cover, and rinse
the outboard motor with fresh
water to remove salt water, sand,
mud, etc.
2. Drain the carburetor as described
on p. 96.

3. Change the engine oil and oil filter
as described on p. 76 – 78 . If there
was water in the engine crankcase,
or if the used engine oil showed
signs of water contamination, then
a second engine oil change should
be performed after running the
engine for half an hour.

4. Remove the spark plugs (p. 83),
and remove the clip from the
emergency stop switch or engine
stop switch. Pull the starter grip,
rotate the flywheel a few
revolutions to completely expel any
water from the cylinders.
If the engine was running when it
submerged, there may be
mechanical damage, such as bent
connecting rods. If the engine binds
when cranked, do not attempt to
run the engine until it has been
repaired.

7. Attempt to start the engine.
When cranking the engine with an
open ignition circuit (spark plugs
removed from the ignition circuit),
remove the clip from the emergency
stop switch to prevent possible
damage to the ignition system.

If the engine fails to start, remove
the spark plugs, dry them, then
reinstall the spark plugs and
attempt to start the engine again.

5. Pour a teaspoon of engine oil into
the spark plug hole, and then pull
the starter grip several times to
lubricate the inside of the cylinder.
6. Reinstall the spark plugs, and put
the emergency stop switch clip into
the emergency stop switch.

110

If the engine starts, and no
mechanical damage is evident,
continue to run the engine for a half
hour or longer. Be sure the water
level is at least 2 inches (5 cm)
above the antiventilation plate to
avoid overheating and water pump
damage.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Carburetor Modification for
High Altitude Operation
At altitudes above 3,000 feet
(900 meters), the standard carburetor
air-fuel mixture will be too rich.
Performance will decrease, and fuel
consumption will increase. A very
rich mixture will also foul the spark
plug and cause hard starting.
Operation at an altitude that differs
from that at which this engine was
certified, for extended periods of
time, may increase emissions.
High altitude operation can be
improved by specific modifications to
the carburetor. If you usually operate
your outboard motor at 3,000 feet
(900 meters) or above, consult with
your authorized Honda Marine dealer.
Your dealer can determine the
appropriate carburetor settings for the
altitude at which you operate your
outboard motor.

112

Even with carburetor modification,
engine horsepower will decrease
about 3.5% for each 1,000-foot
(300-meter) increase in altitude. The
effect of altitude on horsepower will
be greater than this if no carburetor
modification is made.
When the carburetor has been
modified for operation at one of the
higher altitude ranges, the air-fuel
mixture will be too lean for operation
at a lower altitude. Operation at
altitudes below the range for which
the carburetor is set may cause the
engine to overheat and result in
serious engine damage. For use at
lower altitudes, have an authorized
Honda Marine dealer modify the
carburetor for the correct altitude
range.

Emission Control System
Information

The U.S., California Clean Air
Acts, and Environment Canada

Tampering and Altering

Source of Emissions

EPA, California, and Canadian
regulations require all manufacturers
to furnish written instructions
describing the operation and
maintenance of emission control
systems.

Tampering is a violation of Federal
and California law.

The combustion process produces
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen,
and hydrocarbons. Control of
hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen
is very important because, under
certain conditions, they react to form
photochemical smog when subjected
to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does
not react in the same way, but it is
toxic.
Honda utilizes appropriate air/fuel
ratios and other emissions control
systems to reduce the emissions of
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen,
and hydrocarbons.

The following instructions and
procedures must be followed in order
to keep the emissions from your
Honda engine within the emission
standards.

Tampering with or altering the
emission control system may increase
emissions beyond the legal limit.
Among those acts that constitute
tampering are:
• Removal or alteration of any part
of the intake, fuel, or exhaust
systems.
• Alterations that would cause the
engine to operate outside its design
parameters.

113

31ZY06330.book

114 ページ ２０１３年９月３０日 月曜日 午後３時４７分

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Problems That May Affect
Emissions
If you are aware of any of the
following symptoms, have your
engine inspected and repaired by your
servicing dealer.
• Hard starting or stalling after
starting.
• Rough idle.
• Misfiring or backfiring under load.
• Afterburning (backfiring).
• Black exhaust smoke or high fuel
consumption.

114

Replacement Parts
The emission control systems on your
Honda engine were designed, built,
and certified to conform with EPA
and California emission regulations.
We recommend the use of Honda
Genuine parts whenever you have
maintenance done. These
original-design replacement parts are
manufactured to the same standards
as the original parts, so you can be
confident of their performance. The
use of replacement parts that are not
of the original design and quality may
impair the effectiveness of your
emission control system.

A manufacturer of an aftermarket part
assumes the responsibility that the
part will not adversely affect
emission performance. The
manufacturer or rebuilder of the part
must certify that use of the part will
not result in a failure of the engine to
comply with emission regulations.

Maintenance
Follow the maintenance schedule on
(p.72 and 73). Remember that this
schedule is based on the assumption
that your machine will be used for its
designed purpose. Sustained
high-load operation, or use in unusual
conditions, will require more frequent
service.

Emission Control System Warranty
Your new Honda outboard engine complies with both the
U.S. EPA and State of California emission regulations.
American Honda provides the same emission warranty
coverage for outboard engines sold in all 50 states. In all
areas of the United States your outboard engine must be
designed, built, and equipped to meet the U.S. EPA and
California Air Resources Board emission standard for
spark ignited marine engines.

CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL
WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. are pleased to explain
the emission control system warranty on your 2013-2014
Honda outboard engine. In California, new outboard
engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the
state’s stringent anti-smog standards.
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. must warrant the
emission control system on your outboard engine for the
periods of time listed below provided there has been no

abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your outboard
engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as
the carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition
system, and catalytic converter. Also included may be
hoses, belts, connectors, and other emission-related
assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, American Honda
Motor Co., Inc. will repair your outboard engine at no cost
to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY
COVERAGE:
Select emission control parts from model year 2010 and
later outboard engines are warranted for five years or 250
hours of use, whichever first occurs; or the length of the
Honda Marine Distributor’s Limited Warranty, whichever
is longer. However, warranty coverage based on the
hourly period is only permitted for engines equipped with
hour meters as defined in § 2441 (a)(13)* or their
equivalent. If any emission-related part on your engine is
defective under warranty, the part will be repaired or
replaced by American Honda Motor Co., Inc.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the outboard engine owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner’s manual. American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your outboard engine, but American
Honda Motor Co., Inc. cannot deny warranty solely for the
lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance
of all scheduled maintenance.
As the outboard engine owner, you should, however, be
aware that American Honda Motor Co., Inc. may deny
you warranty coverage if your outboard engine or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or
unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your outboard engine
to a Honda Marine dealer as soon as a problem exists. The
warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount
of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights
and responsibilities, you should contact American Honda
Motor Co., Inc., Marine Division Customer Relations
Office. Please see Contacting Honda page 125.

WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Honda outboard engines certified to the CARB and EPA
2010 and later regulation are covered by this warranty to
be free from defects for a minimum of five years or 250
hours of operation, whichever comes first; or the length of

134

the Honda Marine Distributor’s Limited Warranty,
whichever is longer, from the date of delivery to the retail
purchaser. This warranty is transferred to each subsequent
purchaser for the duration of the warranty period.
Warranty repairs will be made without charge for
diagnosis, parts, and labor. All defective parts replaced
under this warranty become the property of American
Honda Motor Co., Inc. A list of warranty parts is on page
136. Normal maintenance items, such as spark plugs and
filters, that are on the warranted parts list are warranted up
to their required replacement interval only.
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. is also liable for
damages to other engine components caused by a failure
of any warranted part during the warranty period.
Only Honda approved replacement parts will be used in
the performance of any warranty repairs, and they will be
provided without charge to the owner. You may use any
replacement part as defined in § 1900 (b)(20)* in the
performance of any maintenance or repairs. If a
replacement part is used in the repair or maintenance of
your engine, and an authorized Honda Marine dealer
determines it causes the failure of a warranted part, your
warranty claim may be denied. If the part in question is
not related to the reason that your engine requires repair,
your claim will not be denied.
