• Do not leave children alone. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

SAFETY DURING USE

• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.
  • Take care when plugging in electric appliances near the cooktop. Cords must not come into contact with the hot surface. This could cause damage to the cooktop and cable insulation.
  • After use, switch off the hob element by its control and do not rely on the pan detector.
  • Always keep the control display panel clean and dry.
  Do not let liquids or grease remain on the cooktop display area. Spilled or burnt-on foods can activate or deactivate the appliance. Clean the display area thoroughly to resume normal operation of the appliance.

• Avoid placing metal cooking utensils on the cooking surface areas. Metal objects can become hot and cause burns.

• Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.

• Use Proper Pan Sizes. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size.
• Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the cooking zones. The pan detection sensors will not allow the affected cooking zones to operate without a pan present.
• Do not place any object on or near the display area in order to prevent accidental activation of the cooktop controls.
• Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware, the handles of cookware should be positioned so that they are turned inward, and do not extend over adjacent surface units.
• Never leave prepared food on the cooking zones. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt or become damaged.
• Protective liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop. Only use aluminum foil as recommended after the cooking process, if used as a cover to be placed over the food. Any other use of aluminum foil may result in the risk of electric shock, fire or short circuit.
• Glazed cookware: Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
• Do not clean or operate a broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Do not place hot cookware on cold cooktop glass. This could cause glass to break.
• Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface. They may scratch the cooktop surface.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marking that can affect the ceramic-glass cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)
• Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
  • Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.

NOTE

Keep pets away from the product to avoid risk of fire or burns. Do not allow pets to climb on the product even when it is not in operation.

- Liquids such as water, coffee or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling, due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling is not always present when the container is removed from the cooktop. This could result in very hot liquids suddenly boiling over when the container is disturbed or a spoon or other utensil is inserted into the liquid.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons.

• Do not overheat the liquid.
• Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
• Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
• After heating, allow the container to stand on the cooktop for a short time before moving the container.
• Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container after heating.

SAFETY WHEN CLEANING

• Always switch off the appliance before cleaning.
- For safety reasons, do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high-pressure cleaner.
- Clean the cooktop in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.
- Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or rough metal scrapers to clean the cooktop glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
- Clean cooktop cautiously. Do not use sponges or cloth to wipe spills on a hot cooking area. Use a proper metal scraper.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY

- Cook meat and poultry thoroughly-meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against food-borne illnesses.

HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE

- Prior to using the cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning cream to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking.

The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

• Do not use the cooktop as a worksurface or storage space.
• Please be careful at the edges when moving pots and pans.
• Do not operate the cooking zones with empty pots or pans.
• Do not turn on the cooking zones with no pots or pans on the element.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature changes but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if hard or sharp objects fall on it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with rough edges or burrs. Moving these can cause scratches on glass.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking zone and melts, remove immediately, while still hot. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when removed.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.
• Keep meltable objects or materials away from the ceramic glass surface, for example, plastic utensils, aluminum foil, or cooking wraps.

If any materials or foodstuffs melt on the ceramic-glass surface, these should be cleaned up immediately.

NOTE

There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!

• Do not use cookware with any dirt buildup on the bottom.
• Do not use cookware with rough or uneven bottoms. This cookware can mark and scratch the cooktop surface.
• Refer to the owner's manual for proper cleaning and maintenance of the cooktop.
• Do not use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.

DISPOSAL OF OLD APPLIANCES

To protect the environment, it is important that worn-out appliances are disposed of in the correct manner.

• The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse disposal sites from your local government offices or state environmental protection agency.

CAUTION

Before disposing of old appliances please make them inoperable so they cannot be a source of danger. To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the appliance from the house circuitry.

Read and follow this safety information carefully.

INTRODUCTION TO INDUCTION COOKING

How Induction Cooking Works

An induction coil beneath the ceramic glass cooking surface generates magnetic fields, which act directly on the base of the pots and pans.

Simple line drawing of a heating setup with a cylindrical tank on a base, connected to a power source and heating element (no text or symbols)

Instead of heating the ceramic glass, this method heats the base of the pan immediately, saving time and energy. Since the heat required for cooking is generated directly in the base of the pan, the cooking zone itself warms up only slightly. The cooktop does become hot when heat is transferred from the cookware.

IMPORTANT

• Electromagnetic fields can affect electronic circuits and interfere with portable radios and phones.
• Do not put magnetically active objects (e.g., credit cards, computer diskettes, cassettes) on or near the ceramic glass surface while one or more induction cooking zones are in use.
• Do not put any metal objects (e.g., spoons, pan lids) on the cooking zones as they can become hot when the cooking zones are in use.

Induction Cookware

NOTE

Before using the induction cooking elements, carefully read and follow these cookware recommendations and the instructions in the pan sensing sections.

When purchasing pans for use on the induction cooktop, look for cookware identified by the manufacturer as "induction ready" or "induction capable", or that is marked by the manufacturer as specifically designed for induction cooking.

The base material of the cookware must be magnetic for the cooking elements to activate. Use a magnet to check if the cookware base material is suitable. If the magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the cookware can be used for induction cooking.

For the best possible surface cooking results, use only high-quality, heavy gauge steel cookware on the induction cooking elements. Follow manufacturer's recommendations when using induction cookware.

Induction Cookware Types

The three most common induction cookware types available are stainless steel, cast iron, and porcelain-enamel-coated metals.

- Stainless Steel is generally excellent for induction cooking. It is durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.

NOTE

Not all stainless steel cookware is magnetic; stainless steel is not always suitable for induction cooking.

• Cast iron cooks evenly and is also good for induction cooking. Do not slide cast iron cookware on the cooktop; cast iron cookware with a rough surface will scratch the ceramic cooktop.
• Porcelain-enamel-coated metals have variable heating characteristics depending on the quality of the base metal. Make sure the porcelain-enamel coating is smooth to avoid scratching the ceramic cooktop.

Incompatible Cookware

• Aluminum, nickel-silver pots
- Heat-resistant glass pots
- Roasting pans
- Stone pots
- Stainless steel pots (without the IH mark)
- Without the IH mark, heating may not work well.
- Pots with partially magnetic base

- Even if there is an IH mark, a container that only has magnetic material on part of the bottom of the container may not be automatically detected or the product may not work properly.

M M

Material that sticks to the magnet Material that does not stick to magnet

- A pot with legs

- A pot with a round bottom

- The smaller contact area may give poor results.

- Do not use a container with a flat bottom surface smaller than the burner size.

Pan Preheat Recommendations

Induction cooking may decrease the amount of time required to preheat cookware compared to cooking on a radiant element cooktop or gas surface burner.

Pay close attention to all food items while cooking on the cooktop and until all cooking processes are complete.

CAUTION

Remember that induction surface cooking initially heats the cookware VERY QUICKLY if the cookware does not contain food.

Noises during Cooktop Operation

The electronic processes involved with induction cooking may create some background noises. You may hear a slight buzzing sound when cooking on the cooktop. These noises are part of the induction cooking process and are considered normal.

Some cookware will buzz, depending on the construction or base material. The buzz may be more noticeable if the contents of the pan are cold. As the pan heats up, the noise will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the power level setting is reduced.

NOTE

• When using the induction cooktop, operational noises are more noticeable while cooking in Boost mode. But very loud noises are not normal when induction cooking.
• The cooktop fan may turn on to reduce the temperature of the product, even when the surface elements are not being used.
• Cookware that is not marked "IH" may make a loud noise.
• Under certain conditions, your cookware may produce a high-pitched whistling noise when two elements are in use at the same time. The power levels at which this occurs may vary depending on the kind of cookware being used. Change the power level to eliminate the noise or reduce its volume.

Use Flat-Bottomed Cookware

Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element. Use flat-bottomed pans sized to fit the cooking element and amount of food being prepared. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware.

Recommended Cookware Size

Diagram of a speaker setup with labeled components and sound wave indicators

	Pan Size
1 Dual cooking zone	Single: 5.5" - 8.0" (140 mm - 203 mm)Dual: 9.0" - 11.0" (228 mm - 280 mm)
2 Single cooking zone	5.5" - 7.1"(140 mm - 180 mm)
3 Flexible cooking zone	4.7" x 10.6"(120 mm x 270 mm)

• The Center area is a Dual Cooking Zone which activates single or dual elements depending on pot/pan size. If the cooktop detects cookware that is less than 9" in diameter, only the inner ring (single element) will activate. If it detects cookware larger than 9" in diameter, it will activate both the inner and outer rings (dual element)
• To quickly boil a very large quantity of water, set the center element to Boost, use a pot that is at least 9" in diameter so that the center dual element is activated, and turn off all other elements.

Minimum Cookware Size

• Use cookware with a bottom surface diameter of 5.5" (140 mm) or greater.
• For Flexible Cooking Zone, minimum cookware size is 4.7" x 10.6" (120 mm x 270 mm)

Cookware Placement

Use the proper cookware and place it correctly on the cooktop. One or more of the cooking elements will not heat if any of the incorrect conditions shown is detected by the sensors located below the ceramic cooktop surface. Correct the problem before attempting to use the cooktop.

Correct

• Cookware is centered correctly on surface of cooking element.
- Pan has flat bottom and straight sides.
- Pan size meets or exceeds the recommended minimum size for the cooking element.
- Pan rests completely on the cooktop surface.
- Pan is properly balanced.

Incorrect

• Cookware is not centered on surface of cooking element.
- Pan has curved or warped bottom or sides.
- Pan does not meet the minimum size required for the cooking element used.
- Pan bottom rests on cooktop trim or does not rest completely on the cooktop surface.
- Pan is unbalanced by heavy handle.

Avoiding Scratches

Use heavier gauge stainless steel cookware on your ceramic cooktop surface. This will help reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.

Low-quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface.

Cookware should always be lifted over the ceramic cooktop surface to prevent scratching.

Over time, sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop may alter the overall appearance of the cooktop. Eventually, the buildup of scratches can make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop.

Scratches can also result from grains of sand (e.g., after washing vegetables) which are dragged with the pot across the cooking surface.

For Best Results:

Always follow the recommendations for proper cookware type and size. In addition:

• Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use pans that are easy to clean after cooking, and make sure that the bottoms of the pans are clean and dry.
• When cooking with large amounts of liquid, use large pots so that nothing can boil over.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.)
• Match the pan size and cooking zone to the amount of food being prepared.

Tips for Saving Energy:

- Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking zone.

• Dirty cooking zones and cookware use more electricity.
• Whenever possible, place lids firmly on pots and pans so that they are completely covered.

Tips for Induction Cooking

Getting the results you want when cooking can take a bit of time and effort. If you are not familiar with induction cooking, it may take a bit of practice or adjusting of your usual methods to achieve the expected results. Using the cooking chart and these cooking tips as a guide, you will soon be enjoying the benefits of induction cooking.

• The quantity or quality of some foods can affect their cooking times.
• When safe, allow food to come to room temperature before cooking to take advantage of induction's ability to heat food quickly.
• Cookware heats up very quickly when induction cooking. Check food or liquids occasionally and stir or reduce heat to avoid scorching, overcooking, splattering, or boilovers.

- Sauces, soups, and stews may heat up more quickly than you are used to and boil over if not watched. For best results, stir frequently.

- Overcooked food loses moisture and tastes dry, while undercooked food can cause illness. For best results, use a thermometer to ensure that food is heated to a safe internal temperature.

- Use nonstick or seasoned pans when cooking to reduce the amount of additional fat added to a recipe.

- Don't overcrowd cookware. To avoid slow cooking times and poor results, use cookware that is appropriately sized for the amount of food you are cooking.

- When boiling water on the center element, an 11" diameter pot gives the best performance and saves the most time.

- Use the Boost setting to quickly boil water, or whenever you need extra heating power in one element.

- To quickly boil a very large quantity of water, set the center element to Boost, use a pot that is at least 9" in diameter so that the center dual element is activated, and turn off all other elements.

- To prevent damage to the product, if one of the right-side elements is turned on when the center dual element is using the Boost setting, the power setting of the center dual element is automatically reduced to power level 9. To maintain the Boost setting on the center dual element, use any of the left-side elements instead.

DO NOT connect the wire to the circuit panel at this time.

Electrical Requirements

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances.

1 A 3-wire or 4-wire single-phase 120/240 or 120/208 Volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is required on a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). DO NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the appliance specified on the nameplate.

2 36" Induction cooktop can consume up to 11,100 W at 240 VAC. A 50 Amp circuit breaker with wire guage #8 AWG must be used.

NOTE

Wire sizes and connections must conform to the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition, and local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock, or other personal injury.

3 The appliance should be connected to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. The flexible armored cable extending from this appliance should be connected directly to the grounded junction box. The junction box should be located as shown on page 36 with as much slack as possible remaining in the cable between the box and the appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

4 A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach the flexible armored cable to the junction box.

Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable strain relief at the point the armored cable enters the junction box. Then make the electrical connection as follows.

Electrical ground is required on this appliance.

This appliance is manufactured with a supply wire and a frame-connected green or bare copper grounding wire.

NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN

The armored cable leads supplied with the appliance are UL-listed for connection to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor wire is governed by the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire, rather than the wire gauge alone.

WARNING

• DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO NOT connect to electrical power supply until appliance is permanently grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on the power.
• This appliance is equipped with a copper conductor flexible cable. If connection is made to aluminum house wiring, use only special connectors which are approved for joining copper and aluminum wires in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in a short circuit or fire. Follow the connector manufacturer's recommended procedure closely.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Before Calling for Service

Before you call for service, review this list. It may save you time and expense. This list includes common occurrences that are not the result of a defect in workmanship or materials.

Symptoms Possible Cause / Solutions
Cooktop does not work.	Cooktop controls are locked.- See Clean Lock to turn off the Clean Lock feature.Circuit breaker has tripped or fuse is blown.- Reset the circuit breaker.Power outage.- Check house lights to confirm power outage.Installation wiring not complete.- Contact the installer or dealer.
Cooktop does not heat.	Incorrect cooking zone selected.- Make sure the correct control is ON for the cooking zone being used.No power to cooktop.- See “Cooktop does not work” above.
Element turns off while cooking.	Cooktop inner temperature too high.- Check that cooktop has been installed according to the installation instructions.
Elements do not get hot enough.	Touch controls may not be set properly.- Check the power level.Cookware that is not marked "IH" or convection compatible may not heat properly.- Use cookware with the IH mark.Cookware may not be flat or the correct shape or size.- Use cookware with a flat bottom.- Minimum Cookware Size1. Use cookware with a bottom surface diameter of 5.5" (140mm) or greater.2. For Flexible Cooking Zone, minimum cookware size is 4.7" x 10.6" (120 mm x 270 mm)- For best results when using the Dual cooking zone, use cookware with a bottom surface that is 9" in diameter or larger.- Use the recommended cookware. See "Induction Cookware".
A fan sound can be heard.	Cooktop inner temperature is high.- This is normal.The cooling fan will run when any element is turned on. With heavy use the fan may continue to run after the controls are turned off until the cooktop has cooled.

Symptoms Possible Cause / Solutions

Noises are heard during cooking.	The following noises are normal.Humming/buzzing sound- Caused by the magnetic field transmitting power to the cookware. It is most noticeable at high power settings and becomes quieter if the power is reduced.Whistling sound- Most noticeable with lighter weight cookware or when cookware is empty.- Under certain conditions, your cookware may produce a high-pitched whistling noise when two elements are in use at the same time. The power levels at which this occurs may vary depending on the kind of cookware being used.Change the power level to eliminate the noise or reduce its volume.Cracking sound- May occur when using composite cookware as the different materials resonate and heat at different rates. This will not damage or impair the performance of the cookware.Clicking sound- Caused by the electrical switches.- It is normal to hear a clicking noise when operating burners below power level 6.Ticking sound- Caused by the cookware detection.
The Boost function has been deactivated or cannot be activated.	To prevent damage to the product, if one of the right-side elements is turned on when the center dual element is using the Boost setting, the power setting of the center dual element is automatically reduced to power level 9. To maintain the Boost setting on the center dual element, use any of the left-side elements instead.For safety, after 6 minutes the Boost setting will automatically revert to either power level 9 or the previously set power level.
The cookware cannot be detected automatically.	The words "Auto Detected" will not be displayed if there is no cookware on the burner. Auto Detection is only active when the cooktop is initially turned on.Cookware is not compatible with induction cooktop.- Use only cookware that is compatible with the induction cooktop. For details of compatible cookware, see "Induction Cookware".
Cookware has been damaged.	Never use the Boost mode to preheat empty cookware or to heat oil, butter or lard. If cookware is overheated, it may be damaged, and the fat or grease may catch fire.- Use the Boost function to boil water or heat up large quantities of food quickly.
Output power is different when the same type of burner is used.	The power level displayed may be different from the actual power level at the high end of the temperature range. To prevent the cooktop from overheating, the power level is controlled automatically.
Power Cycling	It is normal for heating elements to cycle On/Off during use to control output power.
The LCD screen does not work properly.	Placing hot cookware on top of the LCD screen can cause the screen to malfunction.
Timer does not turn off the cooking zone.	The Kitchen Timer/Cooking Timer acts as a simple timer and does not turn off the cooking zone.
The Hot Surface indicator stays on after the burners are turned off.	After you turn off the burners, the indicator remains on until the ceramic glass surface cools down.- If the temperature near the product is high, it may take longer for the ceramic glass surface to cool down.
Error code FC, F1, or F5 appears on the display.	Turn the power off and then on again to turn off the error code.If the issue recurs, call for service.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:

ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 “SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE” mean Signature Kitchen Suite, a division of 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE in writing at least 30 days in advance of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE at Signature Kitchen Suite Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. You and SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE, you and SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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.

Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE at Signature Kitchen Suite Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 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, SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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, SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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, SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for, SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys' fees and expenses from you if SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE can require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE 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 [e-mail], with the subject line: "Arbitration Opt Out" or (ii) calling 1-855-790-6655. 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 serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://www.signaturekitchensuite.com/us/support/repair-service/schedule-repair continued and clicking on "Find My Model & Serial Number").

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 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.
