ABJET® LIMITED WARRANTY
1. WHAT IS COVERED.
The AB DISTRIBUTOR warrants from the original date of purchase,
and subject to the limitations below, to the original retail purchaser (“Owner”) of a
properly registered ABJET® purchased under normal conditions, that it will repair or
replace, at its discretion, the following items:
A. Fabric.
The Chlorosulfonated
Polyethylene (CSM) coated fabric of the tubes is warranted for a period of ten (10) years
against porosity deterioration affecting serviceability. This Limited Warranty coverage
EXCLUDES discoloration, puncture, fading, tearing, ripping, cracking, abrasion, chaffing,
negligence, accident or ordinary wear and tears. AB will repair or replace the defective part
or component at no charge during year one (1) through five (5). During years six (6) to ten
(10), if it is determined that the fabric is defective and in the event of replacement of
inflatable tube, such replacement will be offered at the following discount from the then
current manufacturer’s suggested retail price for the models: 50% discount in year 6; 40%
discount in year 7; 30% discount in year 8; 20% discount in year 9; or 10% discount in year
10.
B. Valves:
The inflation valves and tube seams are warranted for five (5) years against
defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty EXCLUDES ordinary wear and tear,
negligence, or damage by improper inflation techniques.
C. Seams:
The air holding seams
of the inflatable tube are warranted for five (5) years against separation and subsequent
loss of air, which exceeds twenty percent (20%) of recommended inflation pressure when
measured over a period of five (5) days, while maintaining the ABJET® at a constant
temperature in a controlled environment. The major cause of damage is the result of
running the ABJET® underinflated. The Owner is expected to check and properly maintain
the correct inflation pressure before using the ABJET®, or when temperature variations
have exceeded ten degrees Celsius (10°C) or fifty degrees Fahrenheit (50°F) since
inflation, or when running under unusual operation conditions.
D. Fiberglass hull:
The
composite of fiberglass hulls is warranted for
three
(
3
) years against structural defects in
materials and workmanship. This warranty EXCLUDES the surface finish or any damage
due to misuse, negligence or ordinary wear and tear.
E. Accessories:
Components
manufactured and installed by AB to the ABJET® at the factory are warranted from defects
in material and workmanship for
three
(
3
) years, EXCLUDING bilge pumps. This warranty
EXCLUDES any painted or finished surface. Third party manufacturer equipment, such
as electronics, installed on ABJET® will be covered by the respective manufacturer’s
warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing stated time periods, the warranty period for all
items warranted under this Limited Warranty for ABJET®s used for commercial and/or
governmental use will be four (4) months. Repaired or replaced items shall be warranted
as provided herein for the remainder of the applicable warranty period. Defective parts
or components that are replaced shall thereupon become AB DISTRIBUTOR’s property.
The Owner must fully cooperate in good faith with the AB DISTRIBUTOR to allow repair
or replacement as provided above, failing which cooperation this Limited Warranty is null
and void. AB DISTRIBUTOR’S obligation is solely and exclusively limited to repairing or
replacing, at its option, any covered items found to be defective at a facility designated
by AB DISTRIBUTOR. The foregoing is the Owner’s SOLE and EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Routine
maintenance indicated in the Owner’s manual must be performed properly and timely in
order to maintain warranty coverage and not have it voided.
2.
ENGINE WARRANTY.
To check the warranty terms for the engine, ALWAYS refer to the
BRP Operators Manual included in the Owner’s package. All engine warranties,
maintenance or repairs must be done in an approved ABJET® Service Center or third parties
previously authorized by AB for servicing ABJET®, otherwise the Limited Warranty will be
void. Take into account that the Electronic Control Module (ECM) records all faults and
operational events since the ABJET® is launched. It not only saves the fault when it occurs,
but also, the period when the ABJET® is operated with an active fault. This information is
considered to solve a warranty issue. Special Notes. The following negligent events will not
be covered by the Limited Warranty under any circumstance and are excluded: (I) if the
towing procedure is performed with the shut-off valve open. The water will enter into the
engine causing partial or total damage. You must take the boat to an authorized ABJET®
dealer or service center within a few hours after the event occurs. Otherwise, engine will
have to be overhauled. (ii) If the ABJET® is operated with the shut-off valve closed. You
must open the shut-off valve to allow the water to come into the engine; otherwise the
engine will be overheated. (iii) If the ABJET® is operated with the overheating alarm
activated.
3.

minor damage, including, but not limited to, gelcoat grazing or blistering. B. Any damage
to the ABJET® due to negligence, accident, misuse, unauthorized alteration (unless
authorized in writing), unauthorized modification (unless authorized in writing),

unauthorized service station or without AB DISTRIBUTOR prior approval, will void the
remainder of the Limited Warranty. I. Freight, delivery, storage or other similar charges. J.
Third party manufacturer equipment installed on the ABJET® (such as electronics) carries
their own individual warranties provided by their respective manufacturers. In such cases,
any warranty claims regarding those parts must be directed to those manufactures and not
to the AB DISTRIBUTOR. The Owner/purchaser shall look exclusively to these
manufacturers for any and all such warranty claims. K. Whenever an ABJET® is used in a
manner contrary to the instructions indicated in the ABJET® Owner’s Manual. L. Damage
caused by water ingestion. M. Paints, varnishes; gel coats; anti-fouling products; chrome

different climates and use (including cracking, discoloration, and crazing); osmosis
blistering if the original gel surface has been altered in any way — including repair,
application of any coating other than marine anti-fouling bottom paint, improper surface
preparation for paint, or excessive sanding or sandblasting. N. Any published or announced
catalog speeds; fuel consumption; weight; draft and performance characteristics; since
these are estimated or obtained from test runs. O. Electrolysis, galvanic, crevice, poultice
and any other type of corrosion, or any deterioration of underwater items or items
requiring repairs or replacement as a result of lack of maintenance or improper use. P. Any
damage or failure that occurs from either increasing the horsepower of the original engines
installed by manufacturer, installation of engines with more horsepower than the original
engines installed by manufacturer or damages caused by competitive use of the ABJET®.

TRANSFERABILITY & EFFECTIVE DATES AND CONDITIONS.
This Limited Warranty shall
be the original purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy; provided that the original registration
is on file with the AB DISTRIBUTOR. This Limited Warranty shall become effective on the
date of sale provided that the Pre-delivery check list is properly completed and sent by the
dealer/retailer and received by the AB DISTRIBUTOR, no later than fifteen (15) days from
the date of purchase. All warranty claims must be made through an authorized AB repair
station NO LATER than the thirtieth (30th) day from the date of discovery of defect and
submitted on the warranty claim form available from the dealer together with proof of
purchase. All notices must include the Owner’s name, address, email, phone number, the
hull number, the nature of the defect, the date it was discovered, the date of purchase, and
the name and address of the party from whom the ABJET® was purchased. Photographs
illustrating damage, if any, must accompany the claim. The Owner must thereafter provide
all information necessary to allow AB DISTRIBUTOR to verify compliance with these
requirements. An authorized AB DISTRIBUTOR’s representative may make an inspection
after receipt of the claim. Freight and transport charges, where applicable, incurred in
shipping an ABJET® to be repaired or replaced, are to be paid by Owner and are excluded
from this Limited Warranty. The AB DISTRIBUTOR shall have a reasonable time to make any
repair or replacement. The AB DISTRIBUTOR reserves the right to make changes in the
design and materials of its ABJET® without incurring any obligation to incorporate such
changes in units already completed or in hands of dealers or consumers. The entire
obligation of the AB DISTRIBUTOR regarding the sale of its ABJET® is stated within this
Limited Warranty. The AB DISTRIBUTOR does not authorize its dealers, repair stations or any
other person to assume for it any other liability in connection with the sale of its ABJET®,
the Federal Safety Act of 1971 provides for defect notification to the first purchaser. Failure
to register your purchase with the manufacturer constitutes waiver of the right to defect
notification and voids the
limited Warranty. DEMAND THAT THE DEALER COMPLETES YOUR REGISTRATION BY
SENDING THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION TO THE MANUFACTURER. If you are unable to
locate an authorized AB dealer, please contact: AB Inflatables at info@abinflatables.com.
5. MISCELLANEOUS.

negligence, accident, improper operation or trailering, improper maintenance or storage,
commercial or abnormal use or application, or to damage by circumstances beyond AB
DISTRIBUTOR’s control, including, but not limited to, puncture, tearing, ripping, abrasion,
ordinary wear and tear. This Limited Warranty applies only to those parts and components
manufactured by AB and installed by factory personnel. This Limited Warranty is the
complete and exclusive agreement between the parties concerning AB DISTRIBUTOR’s
warranty obligations and the Owner’s warranty rights, superseding all prior or
contemporaneous agreements, representations or warranties, oral or written, and all other
communications between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof including,
without limitation, marketing materials. No modification to or waiver under this Limited
Warranty will be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized AB DISTRIBUTOR’S
officer. To the extent permitted by law, jurisdiction and venue shall be solely and exclusively
in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and Florida law excluding its principles of conflicts of laws
will apply. Unless prohibited by applicable state law, legal claims relating to any alleged
problem with this ABJET® will be barred unless suit is commenced within one (1) year from
the date the cause of action accrues, regardless of the time remaining in the applicable
warranty period. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more provisions herein
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions.
