If you do not register your Carrier equipment within 90 days of installation, the standard 5-year parts-only limited warranty will apply, and you will not be eligible for the extended 10-year parts or labor coverage options. (Note: Jurisdictions where warranty benefits cannot be conditioned on registration will automatically receive a 10-year parts limited warranty, which can be changed to the labor option within the first 90 days.)
