John Deere, California and U.S. EPA Emission Control System
Warranty (Non-Road Diesel)
Your Warranty Rights and Obligations:
The California Air Resources Board (CARB), the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and John Deere are pleased to
explain the emission control system warranty on your 2013, 2014, or 2015 model year industrial compression-ignition
engine. California-certified, new off-road compression-ignition engines
must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent
anti-smog standards. In the remaining forty nine (49) states, new
non-road compression-ignition engines must be designed, built and
equipped to meet the United States EPA emissions standards. John Deere
must warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods
of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the fuel
injection system, the air induction system, the electronic control
system, EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) system and the diesel particulate
filter system. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other
emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, John Deere will repair
your off-road compression-ignition engine at no charge to you including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Period:
2013, 2014, or 2015 model year off-road compression-ignition
engines are warranted for the periods listed below. If any emission-related
part on your engine is found to be defective during the applicable
warranty period, the part will be repaired or replaced by John Deere.

Warranty Coverage:
This warranty is transferable to each subsequent purchaser for
the duration of the warranty period. Repair or replacement of any
warranted part will be performed at an authorized John Deere service
provider.
Warranted parts not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance
in the owner's manual shall be warranted for the warranty period.
Warranted parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance
in the owner's manual are warranted for the period of time prior to
the first scheduled replacement. Any warranted parts scheduled for
replacement as required maintenance that are repaired or replaced
under warranty shall be warranted for the remaining period of time
prior to the first scheduled replacement. Any part not scheduled for
replacement that is repaired or replaced under warranty shall be warranted
for the remaining warranty period.
During the warranty period, John Deere is liable for damages
to other engine components caused by the failure of any warranted
part during the warranty period.
Any replacement part which is functionally identical to the
original equipment part in all respects may be used in the maintenance
or repair of your engine, and shall not reduce John Deere's warranty
obligations. Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted may not
be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or modified parts shall
be grounds for disallowing a warranty.
Warranted Parts:
This warranty covers engine components that are a part of the
emission control system of the engine as delivered by John Deere to
the original retail purchaser. Such components may include the following:
(A) Fuel injection system ( including Altitude compensation
system )
(B) Cold start enrichment system
(C) Intake manifold and Air intake throttle valve
(D) Turbocharger systems
(E) Exhaust manifold
(F) Positive crankcase ventilation system
(G) Charge Air Cooling systems
(H) Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems
(I) Exhaust gas after treatment (diesel particulate filter system)
(J) Electronic Control units, sensors, solenoids and wiring
harnesses used in above systems
(K) Hoses, belts, connectors and assemblies used in above systems
(L) Emission Control Information Labels
Since emissions related parts may vary slightly between models,
certain models may not contain all of these parts and other models
may contain the functional equivalents.
Exclusions:
Failures other than those arising from defects in material or
workmanship are not covered by this warranty. The warranty does not
extend to the following: malfunctions caused by abuse, misuse, improper
adjustment, modification, alteration, tampering, disconnection, improper
or inadequate maintenance, or use of non-recommended fuels and lubricating
oils, accident-caused damage and replacement of expendable items made
in connection with scheduled maintenance. John Deere disclaims any
responsibility for incidental or consequential such as loss of time,
inconvenience, loss of use of equipment/engine or commercial loss.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
As the off-road compression-ignition engine
owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your owner’s manual. John Deere recommends
that you retain all documentation, including receipts, covering maintenance
on your off-road compression-ignition engine, but John Deere cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure
to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
John Deere may deny your warranty coverage if your off-road
compression-ignition engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
Your engine is designed to operate on diesel fuel only. Use
of any other fuel may result in your engine no longer operating in
compliance with CARB and EPA emissions requirements.
You are responsible for initiating the warranty process. You
must present your engine to a John Deere service provider as soon
as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed by the
dealer as expeditiously as possible. If you have any questions regarding
your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact your
John Deere service provider, or the John Deere Customer Contact Center,
1-800-537-8233, or e-mail John Deere from www.Deere.com.
