Section W - Warranty Page W-5
Before the expiration of the applicable Warranty, Owner must notify a Cummins distributor, authorized dealer or other
repair location approved by Cummins of any Warrantable Failure and make the product available for repair by such
facility. Service locations are listed in the Cummins Worldwide Service Locator at cummins.com.
Owner is responsible for communication expenses, meals, lodging and similar costs incurred as a result of a
Warrantable Failure.
Owner is responsible for non-Engine repairs, "downtime" expenses, cargo damage, fines, all applicable taxes, all
business costs and other losses resulting from a Warrantable Failure.
Limitations
Engines with an emissions certification listed below must be operated using only diesel fuel having no more than the
corresponding maximum sulfur content. Failure to use the specified fuel as listed in the Cummins Fuel Bulletin
#3379001 Table 1 (Cummins Inc. Required Diesel Fuel Specifications) can damage the Engine and aftertreatment
system within a short period of time. This damage could cause the Engine to become inoperable and failures
attributable to the use of incorrect fuels will be denied Warranty Coverage. Fuel specifications also need to comply
with local fuel regulations (EN590 for Europe and ASTM D975 for North America) for Warranty eligibility.
Maximum sulfur levels by emissions certification
level as listed on the Engine's dataplate are:
EPA 2007/2010/2013 max. 15 parts per million
EPA Tier 4 Interim / Final max. 15 parts per million
EU Stage IIIB 2011 max. 15 parts per million
Euro 4/5 max. 50 parts per million
Euro 6 max. 10 parts per million
Cummins is not responsible for failures or damage resulting from what Cummins determines to be abuse or neglect,
including, but not limited to: operation without adequate coolants or lubricants; overfueling; overspeeding; lack of
maintenance of lubricating, cooling or intake systems; improper storage, starting, warm-up, run-in or shutdown
practices; unauthorized modifications of the Engine. Cummins is also not responsible for failures caused by incorrect
oil, fuel or diesel exhaust fluid or by water, dirt or other contaminants in the fuel, oil or diesel exhaust fluid.
For power units and fire pumps (package units) the Warranty applies to accessories, except for clutches and filters
supplied by Cummins which bear the name of another company.
Except for the accessories noted previously, Cummins does not warrant accessories which bear the name of another
company. Such non-warranted accessories include, but are not limited to: alternators, starters, fans*, air conditioning
compressors, clutches, filters, transmissions, torque converters, steering pumps, non-Cummins fan drives and air
cleaners.
Cummins Compusave units are covered by a separate Warranty.
Before a claim for excessive oil consumption will be considered, Owner must submit adequate documentation to show
that consumption exceeds Cummins published standards.
Failures of belts and hoses supplied by Cummins are not covered beyond the first 500 hours or one year of operation,
whichever occurs first.
Parts used to repair a Warrantable Failure may be new Cummins parts, Cummins approved rebuilt parts or repaired
parts. Cummins is not responsible for failures resulting from the use of parts not approved by Cummins.
A new Cummins or Cummins approved rebuilt part used to repair a Warrantable Failure assumes the identity of the
part it replaced and is entitled to the remaining Coverage hereunder.
For all A Series Applications, including Industrial, travel reimbursement for non-transportable equipment will be limited
to 4.0 hours, $0.25/mile and 250 miles maximum. Any costs beyond this limit are the customer's responsibility.
CUMMINS DOES NOT COVER WEAR OR WEAROUT OF COVERED PARTS.
CUMMINS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

In the case of consumer sales, in some countries, the Owner has statutory rights which cannot be affected or limited
by the terms of this Warranty.
