Fingerprint recognition
Fingerprint recognition overview
You must register your fingerprint on your device first before using the
fingerprint recognition function.
You can use the fingerprint recognition function in the following cases:
• To unlock the screen.
• To view locked contents in Gallery or QuickMemo+.
• Confirm a purchase by signing in to an app or identifying yourself with
your fingerprint.
• Your fingerprint can be used for user identification. Very similar
fingerprints from different users may be recognized by the fingerprint
sensor as the same fingerprint. To ensure security, set the screen lock
using a pattern, PIN or Password.
Precautions for fingerprint recognition
Fingerprint recognition accuracy may decrease due to a number of
reasons. To maximize the recognition accuracy, check the following before
using the device.
• Ensure that the fingerprint sensor is not damaged by a metallic object,
such as coin or key.
• When water, dust or other foreign substance is on the fingerprint
sensor or your finger, the fingerprint registration or recognition may
not work. Clean and dry your finger before using the fingerprint sensor.
• A fingerprint may not be recognized properly if the surface of your
finger has a scar or is not smooth due to being soaked in water.
• If you bend your finger or use the fingertip only, your fingerprint may
not be recognized. Make sure that your finger covers the entire surface
of the fingerprint sensor.
• Scan only one finger for each registration. Scanning more than one
finger may affect fingerprint registration and recognition.
Custom-designed Features 16
• The device may generate static electricity if the surrounding air is dry.
If the surrounding air is dry, avoid scanning fingerprints, or touch a
metallic object, such as coin or key, to remove static electricity before
scanning fingerprints.

identification.

fingerprints.

Anti-Theft Guide
You can set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it's
been reset to factory settings without your permission. For example,
if your device is lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your Google
account or screen lock information can use the device.
All you need to make sure your device is protected is:
• Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen
lock set, the device can't be erased using the Settings menu unless
your screen is unlocked.
• Add your Google account on your device: If your device is wiped but
you have your Google account on it, the device can't finish the setup
process until your Google account information is entered again.
After your device is protected, you'll need to either unlock your screen or
enter your Google account password if you need to do a factory reset.
This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.
• Do not forget the Google account and password you had added to
your device prior to performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the
account information during the setup process, you won't be able to use
the device at all after performing the factory reset.

Consumer Information about Radio Frequency
Emissions
Your wireless device, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits
radio frequency energy during use. The following consumer information
addresses commonly asked questions about the health effects of wireless
devices.
Are wireless devices safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless devices and radio frequency (“RF”)
energy has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United
States, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications
Commission (“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless devices. The FDA
issued a website publication on health issues related to device usage where it
states, “The scientific community at large … believes that the weight of scientific
evidence does not show an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF)
from the devices and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community
does recommend conducting additional research to address gaps in knowledge.”
That research is being conducted around the world and FDA continues to
monitor developments in this field. You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at
http://www.fda.gov
(under “C” in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research).
You can also contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA.
In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development
agreement through which additional scientific research is being conducted. The FCC
issued its own website publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence that
proves that wireless device usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems,
including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.”
This publication is available at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety or through the FCC
at (888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.
What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
and other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless devices
in the United States. Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the
For Your Safety 128
public, it must be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a
Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF
energy in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the device transmitting at its
highest power level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required
that the SAR of handheld wireless device not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram,
averaged over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR value
of a wireless device while operating can be less than the reported SAR value. This
is because the SAR value may vary from call to call, depending on factors such as
proximity to a cell site, the proximity of the device to the body while in use, and
the use of hands-free devices. Before a device model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests
are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/
after
searching on FCC ID ZNFT600US.
For more information about SARs, visit the FCC website at
https://www.fcc.gov/
consumers/guides/specific-absorptionrate-sar-cell-phones-what-it-means-you
.
You may also wish to contact the manufacturer of your device.
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to
minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time. You can place
more distance between your body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level
drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states that “hands-free
kits can be used with wireless devices for convenience and comfort. These systems
reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the device, which is the
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand,
if the device is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use,
then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless devices marketed
in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they
are used against the head or against the body. Either configuration should result
in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you use your wireless device while in a
For Your Safety 129
car, you can use a device with an antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should
also read and follow your wireless device manufacturer’s instructions for the safe
operation of your device.
Do wireless devices pose any special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a
danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children.” The FDA/
FCC website further states that “some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless device
at all.” For example, the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”] made
such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a group of independent
experts noted that no evidence exists that using a device causes brain tumors or
other ill effects. [The UK’s] recommendation to limit device use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet is available at
http://www.dh.gov.uk
(search
“mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United
Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports on mobile device and RF are available
online at
http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/
(search “mobile”). Parents who wish to
reduce their children’s RF exposure may choose to restrict their children’s wireless
device use.

Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio
waves.
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio Frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based
on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is
1.6W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the
FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum
value. Because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels to use
only the power required to reach the network, in general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
For Your Safety 131
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between SAR levels of various devices and at
various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after
searching on FCC ID ZNFT600US. Additionally, the highest SAR values can also be
found on the LG website:
https://www.lg.com/global/support/sar/sar.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found
on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at
http://www.ctia.org/
.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile device used by the
public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
Caution: Avoid potential hearing loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common
cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using
portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at
high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent noise-induced
hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and
Bluetooth
or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been
associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to
sound and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss
and other potential hearing problems varies. The amount of sound produced by
a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device,
the device settings and the headphones. You should follow some common sense
recommendations when using any portable audio device:
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which
you can hear adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people
speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are
listening to.
For Your Safety 132
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to
listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use noise-cancelling
headphones to block out background environmental noise.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is
required before your hearing could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as rock
concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss
might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience
ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech or experience any temporary hearing
difficulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use and
consult your doctor.

TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld devices.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable device is a low power radio transmitter and
receiver. When ON, it receives and sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the
relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of your device complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
device.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless
device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
For Your Safety 134
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the device more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker
when the device is turned ON;
• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference;
• Should turn the device OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your device OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment
that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your device OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your device while in the air.
Switch OFF your device before boarding an aircraft.
For Your Safety 135
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device OFF when in a
“blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and
instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn your device OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and
obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always marked
clearly. Potential areas may include: fueling areas (such as gasoline stations); below
deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders); and any other area where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed
or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air
bag inflates, serious injury could result.
For Your Safety 136
FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and
Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Devices:
1. Do wireless devices pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using devices. There is no proof, however, that devices are
absolutely safe. Devices emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy in the
microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in
standby mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no
known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological
effects may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional
research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing those
studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of devices?
Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer
products such as devices before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or
medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if devices are
shown to emit Radio Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user.
In such a case, the FDA could require the manufacturers of devices to notify users
of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the devices so that the hazard
no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data does not justify FDA regulatory actions,
the FDA has urged the device industry to take a number of steps, including the
following:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type
emitted by devices;
• Design devices in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not
necessary for device function; and
• Cooperate in providing users of devices with the best possible information on
possible effects of device use on human health.
For Your Safety 137
The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that
have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts
at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group
activities, as well.
The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for devices with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). All devices that are sold in the United States
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on
the FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about devices.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the device networks rely upon. While
these base stations operate at higher power than do the devices themselves, the
RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of
times lower than those they can get from devices. Base stations are thus not the
subject of the safety questions discussed in this document.
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this update?
The term “wireless device” refers here to handheld wireless devices with built-in
antennas, often called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” devices. These types of wireless
devices can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because
of the short distance between the device and the user’s head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with
the advice of the FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the
device is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically
lower because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance
from the source.
4. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have
suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating
the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures characteristic of wireless
devices have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other
laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF
could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many
For Your Safety 138
of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had
been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to
be pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies
exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not
similar to the conditions under which people use wireless devices, so we do not
know with certainty what the results of such studies mean for human health. Three
large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000. Between
them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of wireless
devices and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors
of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies
demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless device RF
exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of device use in these studies was around three
years.
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from devices
poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually
using devices would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal
exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large numbers
of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect
if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable
to human populations, but ten or more years follow-up may be needed to
provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the
interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time
tumors develop — if they do — may be many, many years. The interpretation of
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure
during day-to-day use of devices. Many factors affect this measurement, such as
the angle at which the device is held, or which model of device is used.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects
of device RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups
of investigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization
International Electro Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996.
An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailed agenda
For Your Safety 139
of research needs that has driven the establishment of new research programs
around the world. The project has also helped develop a series of public information
documents on EMF issues.
The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
have a formal Cooperative Research And Development Agreement (CRADA) to
do research on wireless device safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight,
obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic organizations.
CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts with independent
investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of
wireless device users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional
research needs in the context of the latest research developments around the
world.
7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by
using my device?
All devices sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures.
The FCC established these guidelines in consultation with the FDA and the other
federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless
devices is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6
W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration
the body’s ability to remove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the
device and is set well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of devices
must report the RF exposure level for each model of device to the FCC. The FCC
website (
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety
) gives directions for locating the FCC
identification number on your device so you can find your device’s RF exposure level
in the online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming
from devices?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical
standard for measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from devices
and other wireless handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA scientists
and engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for Determining the
Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless
Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first consistent
test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the heads of
For Your Safety 140
device users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human head
and body. Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the
consistency of measurements made at different laboratories on the same device.
SAR is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the
whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)
of matter. This measurement is used to determine whether a device complies with
safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy
from my device?
If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that
there is — it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even
potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person
receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a device will reduce RF exposure.
If you must conduct extended conversations using a wireless device every day,
you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since
the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could
use a headset and carry the device away from your body or use a wireless device
connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data does not demonstrate
that devices are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from
these products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF
exposure from device use.
10. What about children using devices?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of devices, including
children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy, the measures described above would apply to children
and teenagers using devices. Reducing the time of device use and increasing the
distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children
be discouraged from using wireless devices at all. For example, the government
in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in
December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless device
causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless
device use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific
evidence that any health hazard exists.
For Your Safety 141
11. What about wireless communications device interference with medical
equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless communications devices can interact
with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed
test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless devices. This test method is now
part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical
Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device
manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard
will allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are
safe from wireless communications device EMI.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless devices for possible interactions
with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA
will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:
ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY
WAY TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED
EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF
GENERAL JURISDICTION. BINDING ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU AND LG ARE
EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN
A CLASS ACTION.
Definitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics
U.S.A., Inc., its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, directors,
employees, agents, beneficiaries, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns
and suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include any dispute, claim
or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in contract, tort, statute,
regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable
theory) arising out of or relating in any way to the sale, condition or performance of
the product or this Limited Warranty.
Notice of Dispute. In the event you intend to commence an arbitration proceeding,
you must first notify LG in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the
arbitration by sending a letter to LG at LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc. Attn: Legal
Department- Arbitration 1000 Sylvan Avenue Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. You
and LG agree to engage in good faith discussions in an attempt to amicably resolve
your claim. The notice must provide your name, address, and telephone number;
identify the product that is the subject of the claim; and describe the nature of the
claim and the relief being sought. If you and LG are unable to resolve the dispute
within 30 days, either party may proceed to file a claim for arbitration.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve
the dispute during the 30 day period after sending written notice to LG, you and LG
agree to resolve any claims between us only by binding arbitration on an individual
basis, unless you opt out as provided below. Any dispute between you and LG shall
not be combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other person’s or
entity’s product or claim. More specifically, without limitation of the foregoing, any
dispute between you and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part
of a class or representative action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an
individual action in small claims court, but that small claims court action may not be
brought on a class or representative basis.
LIMITED WARRANTY - USA 147
Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG
must make a written demand for arbitration. The arbitration will be administered
by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and will be conducted before a
single arbitrator under the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules that are in effect at
the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the “AAA Rules”) and under the
procedures set forth in this section. The AAA Rules are available online at
www.adr.org/consumer
. Send a copy of your written demand for arbitration, as
well as a copy of this provision, to the AAA in the manner described in the AAA
Rules. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics,
U.S.A., Inc. Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 1000 Sylvan Avenue Englewood
Cliffs, NJ 07632. If there is a conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set
forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will govern. This arbitration
provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on
the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the
arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of
the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute are for the court to
decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.
Governing Law. The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited
Warranty and any disputes between us except to the extent that such law is
preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law.
Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt
of your written demand for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing
fees to the AAA unless you seek more than $25,000 in damages, in which case
the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise
provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees
for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration
provision. If you prevail in the arbitration, LG will pay your attorneys’ fees and
expenses as long as they are reasonable, by considering factors including, but not
limited to, the purchase amount and claim amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if applicable law allows for an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, an
arbitrator can award them to the same extent that a court would. If the arbitrator
finds either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is
frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set
forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration
fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse
LG for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to
pay under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights
it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if LG prevails in the
arbitration.
LIMITED WARRANTY - USA 148
Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to
have the arbitration conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted to
the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as
established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the right to a hearing
will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held
at a location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both
agree to another location or we agree to a telephonic arbitration.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out,
neither you nor LG can require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding.
To opt out, you must send notice to LG no later than 30 calendar days from the
date of the first consumer purchaser’s purchase of the product by either: (i) sending
an e-mail to
