Volvo D13F Automobile Parts User Manual


 
10 General Information
In the event that damage results from unauthorized adjustments to any
emission control system components, as evidenced by settings other than as
specified, or broken fastener seals, the cost of repairing such damage WILL
NOT BE COVERED under warranty.
3. Repairs by Non-VOLVO Facilities
Owners may elect to have maintenance, replacement, or repair of
emission control systems performed by any repair facility, and may elect
to use parts other than VOLVO parts without invalidating the warranty
on other components, but the cost of such service or parts will not be
covered by VOLVO under its warranty.
4. Use of Non-VOLVO Parts
Use of replacement parts which are not the equivalent of VOLVO parts
may impair the effectiveness of emission control systems. If other than
VOLVO parts are used, the owner should obtain assurances that such
parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be the equivalent of
VOLVO parts in performance and durability. VOLVO assumes no
liability under this warranty with respect to parts other than VOLVO
parts; however, the use of non-VOLVO parts does not invalidate the
warranty on other components unless non-VOLVO parts cause damage
to warranted parts.
5. Maintenance and Maintenance Records
The vehicle owner is responsible for the performance of all required
maintenance specified in this manual.
VOLVO will not deny a warranty claim solely because there is no record
of maintenance; however, VOLVO may deny a warranty claim if failure
to perform required maintenance results in the failure of a warranted
part. Receipts or other records covering the performance of scheduled
maintenance should be retained to answer questions that may arise
concerning maintenance. Maintenance records should be transferred to
subsequent owners if the vehicle is sold.
6. Items Not Covered by the Emission Control Systems Warranty
Malfunctions caused by misuse, improper adjustments,
modification, alteration, tampering, disconnection, improper or
inadequate maintenance.
Damage resulting from accident, acts of nature or other events
beyond the control of VOLVO.
Inconvenience, loss of use of the vehicle, or commercial loss.
Any vehicle on which the odometer has been changed so that
mileage cannot be readily determined.
