OFTEN ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Why must my snowmobile be registered at the factory? After all
I do have my original invoice as proof of when I purchased my
snowmobile.
A: Registration is very important and your dealer must register
your snowmobile with Bombardier Inc. Make sure the card
has been sent. All of this will allow you to:
a) have warranty work performed at any authorized Bombar-
dier dealer in North America. Your registration card will pro-
vide the dealer with all the necessary data to complete
warranty claim forms.
b) be advised by Bombardier should there be a safety recall or
particular warranty campaign.
c) be contacted much faster by the police, the minute they
find your stolen snowmobile (if such a case occurs).
Q: Why must my snowmobile be registered with the governing
body having jurisdiction over snowmobile use?
A:Snowmobile registration has two purposes: In many provinces
or states it is mandatory to register a snowmobile in the same
way as for a car. It allows the state or province to maintain
records of existing snowmobiles and governmental agencies
use part of the registration fees for establishing and maintain-
ing trails.
Q: Where can I find information on the lubrication and maintenance
of my snowmobile?
A:In the Operator’s Guide provided with the snowmobile at the
time of delivery.
Q: Will the entire warranty be voided or cancelled, if I do not operate
or maintain my new snowmobile exactly as specified in the Op-
erator’s Guide?
A:The warranty of the new snowmobile cannot be “Voided” or
“Cancelled” if Predelivery by an authorized dealer. However,
if a particular failure is caused by operation or maintenance
other than is shown in the Operator’s Guide, THAT failure may
not be covered under warranty. This includes service work
performed by the customer, especially the critical adjust-
ments: ignition timing, carburation and oil injection/or oil mix-
ture.
