LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT
ARBITRATION NOTICE: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY CONTAINS AN 
ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT REQUIRES YOU AND LG TO RESOLVE 
DISPUTES BY BINDING ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF IN COURT, UNLESS 
YOU CHOOSE TO OPT OUT. IN ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTIONS AND 
JURY TRIALS ARE NOT PERMITTED. PLEASE SEE THE SECTION TITLED 
“PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES” BELOW.
Warranty Laws
The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of consumer 
goods:

b The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC §§1790 et 
seq],

b  The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C 
§§2101 et seq], and 

b  The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission 
Improvement Act [15 USC §§2301 et seq; 16 CFR Parts 701– 703]. 
A typical Magnuson-Moss Act warranty is a written promise that the 
product is free of defects or a written promise to refund, repair, or 
replace defective goods. [See 15 USC §2301(6).] Remedies include 
damages for failing to honor a written warranty or service contract or 
for violating disclosure provisions. [See 15 USC §2310(d).] Except for 
some labeling and disclosure requirements, the federal Act does not 
preempt state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]
1. WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS:
LG offers you a limited warranty that the enclosed subscriber unit 
and its enclosed accessories will be free from defects in material and 
workmanship, according to the following terms and conditions:
(1)  The limited warranty for the product extends for TWELVE (12)  MONTHS beginning on the date of purchase of the product with 
valid proof of purchase, or absent valid proof of purchase, FIFTEEN 
(15) MONTHS from date of manufacture as determined by the units 
manufacture date code. 
						

							 3
(2)  The limited warranty extends only to the original purchaser of the product and is not assignable or transferable to any subsequent 
purchaser/end user.
(3)  This warranty is good only to the original purchaser of the product  during the warranty period as long as it is in the U.S., including Alaska, 
Hawaii, U.S. Territories and Canada.
(4)  The external housing and cosmetic parts shall be free of defects at  the time of shipment and, therefore, shall not be covered under these 
limited warranty terms.
(5)  Upon request from LG, the consumer must provide information to  reasonably prove the date of purchase.
(6)  The customer shall bear the cost of shipping the product to the  Customer Service Department of LG. LG shall bear the cost of 
shipping the product back to the consumer after the completion of 
service under this limited warranty.
2. WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:
(1)  Defects or damages resulting from use of the product in other than  its normal and customary manner.
(2)  Defects or damages from abnormal use, abnormal conditions,  improper storage, exposure to moisture or dampness, unauthorized 
modifications, unauthorized connections, unauthorized repair, misuse, 
neglect, abuse, accident, alteration, improper installation, or other acts 
which are not the fault of LG, including damage caused by shipping, 
blown fuses, spills of food or liquid.
(3)  Breakage or damage to antennas unless caused directly by defects in  material or workmanship.
(4)  That the Customer Service Department at LG was not notified by  consumer of the alleged defect or malfunction of the product during 
the applicable limited warranty period.
(5)  Products which have had the serial number removed or made illegible.
(6)  This limited warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, express or  implied either in fact or by operations of law, statutory or otherwise, 
including, but not limited to any implied warranty of marketability or 
fitness for a particular use. 
						

							 4
(7)  Damage resulting from use of non LG approved accessories.
(8)  All plastic surfaces and all other externally exposed parts that are scratched or damaged due to normal customer use.
(9)  Products operated outside published maximum ratings.
(10) Products used or obtained in a rental program.
(11) Consumables (such as fuses).
3. WHAT LG WILL DO:
LG will, at its sole option, either repair, replace or refund the purchase 
price of any unit that is covered under this limited warranty. LG may 
choose at its option to use functionally equivalent re-conditioned, 
refurbished or new units or parts or any units. In addition, LG will not 
re-install or back-up any data, applications or software that you have 
added to your phone. It is therefore recommended that you back-up any 
such data or information prior to sending the unit to LG to avoid the 
permanent loss of such information.
4. STATE LAW RIGHTS:
No other express warranty is applicable to this product. THE DURATION 
OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY 
OF MARKETABILITY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A 
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS 
WARRANTY HEREIN. LG SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE LOSS OF 
THE USE OF THE PRODUCT, INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OR ANY OTHER 
DAMAGES, DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL, ARISING OUT OF THE USE 
OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIS PRODUCT OR FOR ANY BREACH OF 
ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED 
WARRANTY OF MARKETABILITY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS 
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE APPLICABLE TO THIS PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow the exclusive limitation of incidental or 
consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied warranty 
lasts; so these limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This 
warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights 
which vary from state to state.

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 MobileComm 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.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. 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  
						

							 6
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.
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, USA, Inc.Attn: Legal Department-
Arbitration1000 Sylvan AvenueEnglewood 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 reasonable attorneys’ fees and  
						

							 7
expenses to the extent required by applicable law. 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.
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 optout@lge.
com, with the subject line: “Arbitration Opt Out” or (ii) calling 1-800-980-
2973. You must include in the opt out e-mail or provide by telephone: (a) 
your name and address; (b) the date on which the product was purchased; 
(c) the product model name or model number; and (d) the IMEI or MEID 
or Serial Number, as applicable (the IMEI or MEID or Serial Number can 
be found (i) on the product box; (ii) on a label on the back of the product 
beneath the battery, if the battery is removable; or (iii) from the settings 
menu via the following path: Settings 
 General tab  About phone  
Status). You may only opt out of the dispute resolution procedure in 
the manner described above (that is, by e-mail or telephone); no other 
form of notice will be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution 
procedure. Opting out of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect  
						

							 8
the coverage of the Limited Warranty in any way, and you will continue to 
enjoy the full benefits of the Limited Warranty. If you keep this product 
and do not opt out, then you accept all terms and conditions of the 
arbitration provision described above.
