Kawasaki will not accept responsibility if, in its sole opinion, the part or parts require repair or replacement as a direct result of:

1. Alteration from standard specification in a manner which affects the performance, durability or safety of the product or any of its component parts or genuine Kawasaki accessories. e.g.:
   1. The fitment of non-genuine Kawasaki parts or accessories, unless these are recommended or approved in writing by Kawasaki.
   2. Modifications or adjustment not recommended or approved in writing by Kawasaki.
   3. The fitment of Kawasaki Racing Parts.
2. The use of lubricating oils, fuel or other fluids (including cleaning materials) which are not in accordance with the recommendations contained in the owner’s manual.
3. Improper use, improper repair (this includes fitment of non genuine or ‘pattern’ parts); accidental or fire damage, contamination by or submergence in water.
4. Deterioration due to normal wear and tear in service. The warranty does not cover routine service adjustment or normal replacement of service items (such as oils, fluids, spark plugs, filters) or wear and tear items (such as batteries, brake and clutch friction materials, drive chains or belts and tyres, cables and bearings). However, such items are covered if replacement is required as a result of a manufacturing or material defect.
5. Any damage or consequential damage caused by accident or by operator neglect or abuse.

The warranty may not apply if:

1. The periodic maintenance and servicing is not carried out by an authorised Kawasaki dealer at the appropriate intervals as specified in the relevant owner’s manual. Evidence of this servicing must be produced, if requested, at the time of any warranty claim. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure the service records are kept up to date by the servicing dealer. It is advisable to also keep copies of any service or repair invoices.
2. Any problem experienced is not notified to a Kawasaki Dealer within a reasonable time or the product is not properly inspected by that dealer. The owner should take all possible steps to prevent further damage as soon as any problem is apparent. Any consequential damage that is caused by the continued use of the product after a problem has been identified may not be covered by this warranty.

Any Kawasaki products used for competitive racing or related use are specifically excluded from the terms and provisions of this warranty.

BREAKDOWN - In the event of a breakdown it is the owner’s responsibility to ensure the product is taken to an authorised Kawasaki dealer for attention.

Kawasaki will not be responsible for recovery costs or any other costs associated with the transportation of a product to a Kawasaki dealer if, upon inspection by a Kawasaki dealer, the problem is found not to have been caused by a manufacturing defect.

If the product is sold or transferred, the change of ownership must be notified to Kawasaki as soon as possible as described below.

SERVICE REQUIREMENTS - Refer to your owner’s manual for details of the service schedule and routine maintenance.

TRAVELLING ABROAD - If you are planning to travel to other countries on or with your machine, we ask you to note the following points.

1. Ensure the service schedule is up to date. You may need to get your next service carried out early depending on the length and duration of your trip.
2. Take out suitable travel insurance and breakdown cover.
3. Take your warranty registration details and your owner’s manual with you.
4. If you do experience any problems with your machine, we strongly recommend that you contact the nearest Kawasaki authorised dealer.
5. You can contact the local Kawasaki distributor if necessary by visiting www.kawasaki.eu and searching for the relevant distributor.

Kawasaki products perform best with regular maintenance and servicing and each model has a maintenance schedule designed to keep it operating at its optimum performance level.

We recommend the vehicle is serviced by an authorised Kawasaki dealer in accordance with the servicing schedules detailed in your owner’s manual. Please ensure your dealer records the details whenever a service is carried out and also updates the service history. We suggest you keep copies of any service documents or repair invoices.

Your responsibility: Any maintenance schedule would be incomplete without your own active participation in making the daily inspection as detailed in the owner’s manual. Regular cleaning is also essential, and should be undertaken as often as necessary, especially in winter, to help prevent damage or corrosion caused by road salt or other harmful deposits.

Note that damage to paint work, plated materials or chrome due to external influences such as accident damage, climatic, thermal, chemical, industrial pollution, or insufficient care or protection from elements is excluded from the warranty.

Kawasaki dealer service: Kawasaki dealers are equipped with special tooling, manuals and service information, and have Kawasaki trained service staff. We back this up with a technical support and parts supply service to further enhance the quality of service available to you.

Pre-delivery inspection: Your service history begins with the preparation and inspection of the product prior to delivery. Your new Kawasaki has been carefully checked and prepared by your authorised dealer in accordance with the pre-delivery inspection (PDI) schedule issued by Kawasaki. Please ensure you check that the product is delivered to your satisfaction and that the PDI record is correctly completed and signed and that the dealer has recorded it in the service history and passed a copy of the PDI checklist to you.

The first service: We regard the first service as very important in the early life of a product. It is essential to have this service carried out by your dealer at the scheduled time.

Regular servicing: Regular servicing is the key to keeping your product operating correctly and should be entrusted to your dealer. The service schedule in your owner’s manual tells you when, and which service is required, and details the work to be carried out.

NOTE: SERVICE MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN OPERATED IN MUD, DUST OR ANY OTHER HARSH RIDING CONDITIONS.

ATV/UV models used in a commercial application: If your machine is being used in a heavy-duty application or is used intensively, we recommend you discuss a suitable service plan with your dealer, who can discuss, and agree a planned maintenance schedule with you which reflects your particular requirements. It is important to note that in such applications the servicing frequency may need to be increased.
