Side View

For easiest installation, see marked areas 1 for water and electrical clearances in base of dishwasher. Water supply hose, drain hose and electric cable should be passed through this area.

Preparing Cabinet Opening

This dishwasher is designed to fit a standard dishwasher opening. An opening may be needed on both sides to route plumbing and electrical connections.

To ensure proper drainage, install the dishwasher no more than 12 ft. (3.65 m) from the sink.
- The location must have sufficient space for the dishwasher door to open easily and provide at

12 INSTALLATION

least 0.1'' (2 mm) between the dishwasher and the cabinet sides.

• If installing the dishwasher in a corner, leave a minimum of 2'' (50 mm) between the dishwasher and the adjacent wall.
• The adjacent wall must be free of obstructions.
• For flush installations only, you may remove the cabinet brace inside the cabinet.

Choosing the Proper Location

1 Select a location as close to the sink as possible for easy connections to water supply line, drain hose and electrical connection.

2 To allow for proper clearance of plumbing and electrical, use the template included with the literature to determine the clearance on the side of the cabinet where the cabinet meets the back wall. Using a 21/2'' diameter hole saw, drill a hole in the target area as shown on the template.

WARNING

• Installation damage is not covered by the warranty, and leaks caused by improper installation may result in property damage.
• Do not use existing holes unless they are in the target area.
• Failure to properly locate the hole for the water and drain lines may prevent the dishwasher from installing flush with the cabinets and could result in kinked, pinched, crushed, stressed or damaged lines.

Preparing Water and Electrical Connections

WARNING

Water Connection

• Do not reuse an old hose. Use only a new hose when installing the dishwasher. The old hose could leak or burst causing flooding and property damage. Contact an LG Customer Information Center for assistance in buying a new hose.

• Electrical Connection

• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

• Operate this appliance with the correct voltage as shown in this manual and on the rating plate.
• The wiring must be grounded properly. If in doubt, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
• Connect the appliance using 3-wires, including a ground wire.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not use an extension cable or adapter with this dishwasher.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one appliance.
• The included 16AWG wire nuts should be used.

• It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the product owner to have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

CAUTION

• When connecting the dishwasher water supply line to the house water supply, sealing tape or compound should be used on pipe threads to avoid leaks. Tape or compound should not be used on compression fittings.
• Connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply with a temperature range between 120^ (49^) and 149^ (65^) . This temperature range provides the best washing results and shortest cycle time. To prevent damage to dishes, the temperature should not exceed 149^ (65^) .
• Water supply pressure must be between 20 psi and 80 psi (140 - 550 kPa). If the water supply pressure exceeds 80 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed. Otherwise premature failure of the inlet valve may occur.

Routing Water Supply Line and Electrical Wiring

There are 2 channels in the bottom of the dishwasher for routing the water and electrical connections.
- As shown in the bottom view below, channel 1 is for the water supply line, and channel 2 is for the electrical cable.

1 Turn off the house water supply and the circuit breaker or dedicated power before connecting the dishwasher.
2 Run the water supply line along the floor 61/ 2^ - 73 / 4^ (165 mm - 197 mm) from the left side of the opening and tape it in place in front of the opening.

3 Run the electrical cable ③ along the floor 14" -16" (356 mm - 406 mm) from the water supply line ④ and tape it in place.

The electrical outlet must be within 4 ft. (1.22 m) of either side of the dishwasher.
- The best location for the electrical conduit is on the right side of the back wall. Re-route the electrical cable before installation if the electrical conduit pipe is longer than 3'' (76 mm) and is centered on the back wall.

Options and Extra Functions

Select the desired cycle and then select the options for that cycle.

Steam

This option adds steam at the start of the cycle to improve wash performance.

If the Steam option is added to a cycle, the Sanitized indicator stays lit at the end of the cycle if the dishes were properly sanitized (except the Refresh cycle). If the dishwasher could not properly sanitize the dishes because the Steam option was not selected, the cycle was interrupted or the water could not be heated to the required temperature, the indicator will not light up at the end of the cycle. Open and close the door or press POWER to turn the indicator off.

NOTE

• This high temperature rinse sanitizes dishes and glassware in accordance with the NSF/ANSI Standard 184 for residential dishwashers. Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for use in licensed food establishments. Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles on a certified machine have passed the sanitization performance test.

Height Adjustable Upper Rack

The upper rack adjusts up and down. Raise the upper rack to allow items up to 14" tall in the lower rack. Lower the upper rack to allow dishes up to 12" tall in the upper rack. The dishwasher ships with the upper rack raised.

There are three available positions for adjusting the height of the upper rack to create more space.

WARNING

Before adjusting, ensure the rack is empty of all dishes. Otherwise dishes may get damaged or you may get injured.

NOTE

• Raise the upper rack without pushing the buttons on each side. Pushing the buttons when raising the rack will prevent the rack from locking into position.
• To set the rack to the middle position, it may be easier to lower the rack all the way down and then raise each side of the rack individually until it clicks into place.
• Before pushing the upper rack into the dishwasher, ensure the rack height is the same on both sides. If the height is not the same on both sides, the dishwasher door will not shut and the upper spray arm will not connect to the water inlet.

• There is a 2 3/16 inches (56 mm) gain in height when the upper rack is moved to the lower position.
  After adjusting the rack levels, check that the spray arms are free to rotate.
• When the upper rack is in the lower position, make sure the rack and the spray arm do not hit the items on the lower rack.
• When the upper rack is in the lower position, push in the upper rack first, and the lower rack later.
• Pull out the lower rack first, and the upper rack later.

Lowering the Rack

Hold the rack at the center of each side to support its weight. Then, push the button on each side to release the rack and lower it into position.

Adding Cleaning Products

Adding Detergent to the Dispenser

• Remove the label on the dispenser prior to running the dishwasher for the first time.
• The amount of detergent needed depends on the cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.

• Put detergent into the detergent compartment before starting any cycle, except the Rinse (Download Cycle: P3) cycle.

WARNING

• Dishwasher detergent and rinse aid contain chemical components, like all other household detergent. So, they must be kept out of the reach of children.

CAUTION

• Use only detergent intended for dishwashers. Incorrect detergent may cause the dishwasher to fill with suds during operation. Excess suds may reduce wash performance and may cause the dishwasher to leak.
• To avoid damaging the dispenser and blower cover, do not use them to pull up and close the dishwasher door.

NOTE

After completion of the wash program, check whether the detergent was completely washed out.
- Some dishwasher detergent tablets may become stuck in the dispenser due to their excessive size. Tablets can be placed onto the base of the wash tub next to the filter before starting the cycle.
- Too much detergent can leave a film on dishes and in the dishwasher, resulting in poor wash performance.
- If dishwasher detergent tablets are used without liquid rinse aid, the dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture. Select the Dry Boost option for better drying performance.

• Using liquid rinse aid improves drying performance by allowing water to drain off of dishes after the final rinse.
• Do not use detergent tablets for shorter wash cycles. The tablet may not dissolve completely, causing detergent residue on dishes and inefficient cleaning.
• Using a wash booster helps remove spots, residue, and the white film caused by hard water. It does not help remove excess detergent residue.

1 Push the button on the dispenser lid to open the cover.

2 Add dishwashing detergent to the main wash compartment until the level is between the lines marked 15 and 25.

• Fill to over the 25 line for hard water or heavily soiled loads.
• Fill to the 15 line for soft water or lightly soiled loads.

3 Slide the detergent lid closed until it clicks.

4 If a prewash is desired, fill the recessed prewash compartment area on the lid with detergent.

Adding Rinse Aid to the Dispenser

The Rinse Aid Refill LED appears in the display when more rinse aid is needed.

The use of rinse aid is recommended to prevent water spots on dishes and to enhance drying performance.

NOTE

• Only use liquid rinse aid in the dishwasher.
• Do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.
• Wipe off any spilled rinse aid around the dispenser.

1 Open the rinse aid lid by lifting up the flap.

2 Add a liquid rinse aid to the maximum fill level. Allow the rinse aid to settle in the dispenser while filling, or air bubbles may result in poor drying performance. Avoid overfilling the dispenser.

3 Close the lid to lock the dispenser. Rinse aid is dispensed automatically during the final rinse cycle.

Rinse Aid Dispenser Adjustment

The dispenser has five adjustment levels. The dishwasher is programmed at the factory for a rinse aid dispenser level of 2. This can be checked and adjusted from the control panel.

NOTE

• Adjust the setting higher if you have hard water and notice calcium buildup on your dishes.
• Setting the rinse aid control too low will contribute to spotting and streaking on dishes and poor drying performance.
• Setting the control too high can cause foaming, which will cause poor wash performance.

1 Ensure the appliance is off.
2 Press Power and Remote Start simultaneously to enter the Option Setting Mode.

Cleaning the Spray Arm

If the spray arm holes are blocked by any food residue, dishes may not be cleaned well due to improper water spray.

It is recommended that the spray arms be cleaned once every two weeks.

Cleaning the Lower Spray Arm

1 Make sure that the water jet holes are not blocked by food particles.

2 If any food residue blocks the spray arm holes, remove it with a pin or any sharp tool.

CAUTION

• To avoid breaking the rolling spray arm sections, do not pull or manually rotate them.

Cleaning the Upper Spray Arm

1 Pull the upper rack forward. Make sure that the water jet holes are not blocked by food particles.
2 When cleaning is necessary, remove the upper spray arm by turning the nut on the bottom of the spray arm 1/8 turn counterclockwise and pulling down.

3 Remove food particles by rinsing or shaking the spray arm.
4 If any food residue blocks the spray arm holes, remove it with a pin or any sharp tool.

5 After removing the food residue, clean the spray arms under running water.
6 After cleaning the upper spray arm, press it up into place. Turn the nut 1/8 turn clockwise to make sure that the nut locks back into place.

7 After assembly, make sure that the spray arms rotate freely.

Seasonal Maintenance and Storage

• If you will be absent for an extended period of time during warmer months, close the water valve and disconnect the power supply line, or turn off the circuit breaker. Clean the filter, tub and dispenser to prevent odor.
• If you will be absent for an extended period of time during colder months and there is a possibility of freezing temperatures, winterize the water supply lines and the dishwasher itself. Winterization must be performed by qualified service personnel.

Before Calling for Service

FAQs

Q: Does this dishwasher require a rinse aid to be used?

A: Rinse aid is strongly recommended to enhance the drying performance of the dishwasher. If a rinse aid is not used, water may remain on the dishes and the tub. Rinse aid helps to ensure that the majority of the water has been sheeted off of the dishes at the end of the rinse and that the load is ready for the dry cycle.

Q: What can be done if my dishes have a cloudy, white film on them after a wash?

A: The cloudy film is usually caused by minerals in the water reacting with the dishwasher detergent. First, be certain not to use too much detergent. Refer to Adding Detergent to the Dispenser section for recommended detergent amounts. Add an extra rinse to the cycle. LG Dishwashers use less water than traditional dishwashers, so adding an extra rinse helps to rinse the film away. If the water supply is hard, it may be necessary to add a performance booster that addresses the hard water condition.

Q: How do I remove white film on the tub?

A: Measure 3 tbsp. (40 g) of citric acid powder and use it to fill the main detergent compartment. Run a Machine Clean (Download Cycle: P1) cycle. Do not use detergent.

Q: What steps can I take to improve drying results?

A: Drying performance is directly affected by the amount of heat that remains in the tub after the heated rinse is performed. If your dishwasher is far away from your home's hot water heater, it may be necessary to run the hot water tap in the sink before starting a wash cycle, to ensure that cool water is purged from the hot water lines. This will ensure your dishwasher has a consistent supply of hot water from start to finish. Using the High Temp. setting also aids in keeping the inner drum temperature and dishes hotter before drying begins.

LG dishwashers are designed to be used in conjunction with a rinse aid. Using a rinse aid will maximize the amount of water that has already been sheeted away from the dishes before the dry cycle begins. If a rinse aid is used and the performance still needs a boost, adjust the amount of rinse aid used. 2 is the default setting, but if necessary set the level to 3 so more rinse aid is used. Water tends to bead rather than sheet off plastic and nonstick surfaces, making them more difficult to dry. If washing plastic items in a Normal cycle, select the Dry Boost or Night Dry option or both for better drying results. When the rinse aid is empty, the Dry Boost option is selected automatically (except the Normal, 1 Hour cycle).

Allow the dishwasher to completely finish the dry cycle before opening the door. If the door is opened in the middle of the dry cycle, the heat that is necessary for the hybrid dry system to work will escape. This will cause all of the dishes inside to remain wet once the cycle finishes.

Q: What is the hybrid drying system?

A: The dishwasher does not rely on a heating element for the drying process; instead, it relies on the heat that is retained by the dishes and the tub during the wash and rinse cycles to turn the moisture in the tub into humidity.

Warm, moist air in the dishwasher is then pulled into a condensing duct in the door by a fan. The air then cools, which causes the humidity to condense. Room temperature air is also drawn into the duct to help the air cool down faster. When this moisture condenses into a liquid, it is drained out.

NOTE

• Rinse aid is required to enhance the drying performance. If no rinse aid is used, water may remain on the dishes and the tub.

Q: Why am I hearing a whistling sound from the dishwasher?

A: It is important to determine the duration of the noise and when it happens (what part of the cycle). When water is drawn into the dishwasher, a whistling noise can be heard. This is normal. If the water pressure is too high, it will be louder, so it may be necessary to adjust the water valve to lower the pressure if the noise is too loud.

Q: What kinds of dishes can be placed in the dishwasher?

A: Ensure that the dishes you place in the dishwasher are dishwasher safe. Plastic dishware will not dry as effectively as glass and metal dishware. Plastic items do not retain heat as well as glass and metal dishware. Plastic cups and dishes may require some hand drying before being put away at the end of the cycle.

Q: Can I run a drain only cycle?

A: To drain standing water, press and hold Start for three seconds until the cycle stops. Once the dishwasher finishes draining, the power turns off.

Q: Why does my dishwasher continuously chime if I open the door during a cycle or right after the cycle has finished?

A: This is normal. The dishwasher is letting you know that the interior temperatures of the unit are hot and to use caution when reaching inside. Once the unit has cooled down, the chiming will stop.

Q: What is Control Lock and how is it activated?

A: Control Lock is a feature that prevents the controls from being changed during the cycle. It does not prevent the door from being opened or the unit from being powered off. To activate or deactivate, press and hold Night Dry and Delay Start simultaneously for three seconds.

Q: Can I add an extension to the drain hose?

A: If a drain hose extension is required, use a 5/8" or 7/8" inside diameter, 2 ft - 3 ft. length hose and a coupler to connect the two hose ends.

Q: An LED is blinking, the machine is chiming, and the dishwasher won't start. What is wrong with the dishwasher?

A: This is a safety feature. The door must be closed within four seconds of pressing the Start button. If the door is not closed within four seconds, an LED flashes, an audible alert sounds, and the dishwasher does not operate. To start the dishwasher, open the door and either close the door and press Start (front controls) or press Start and close the door within four seconds (top controls).

Q: Should I pre-rinse dishes before loading them?

A: No, you don't need to pre-rinse the dishes before loading especially if using the Normal and Auto cycles. The dishwasher washes dishes clean without pre-rinsing.

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, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration 111 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.

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-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, 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.

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.

58 LIMITED WARRANTY

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 [e-mail], 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 serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https:// www/lg.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.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:

EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED AT LAW, 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. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED AT LAW, YOU AND LG BOTH IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO WAIVE 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 Canada, 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 LGECI Legal Team at 20 Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario, Canada M9L 2X6 (the "Notice of Dispute"). 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 of LG's receipt of the Notice of Dispute, the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the procedure set out herein. You and LG both agree that, during the arbitration proceeding, the terms (including any amount) of any settlement offer made by either you or LG will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until the arbitrator determines the dispute.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. Upon failure to resolve the dispute during the 30 day period after LG's receipt of the Notice of Dispute, you and LG agree to resolve any claims between you and LG only by binding arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided below, or you reside in a jurisdiction that prevents full application of this clause in the circumstances of the claims at issue (in which case if you are a consumer, this clause will only apply if you expressly agree to the arbitration). To the extent permitted by applicable law, 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, except to the extent such a prohibition is not permitted at law, 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 except to the extent this prohibition is not permitted at law in your province or territory of jurisdiction as it relates to the claims at issue between you and LG.

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 private and confidential, and conducted on a simplified and expedited basis before a single arbitrator chosen by the parties under the provincial or territorial commercial arbitration law and rules of the province or territory of your residence. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, Canada, Inc., Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration, 20 Norelco Drive, North York, Ontario M9L 2X6. This arbitration provision is governed by your applicable provincial or territorial commercial arbitration legislation. 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 province or territory of your purchase shall govern this Limited Warranty and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted for any claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG attend to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province or territory of your purchase for the resolution of the claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG.

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 unless you seek more than $25,000 in damages, in which case the payment of these fees will be governed by the applicable arbitration rules. Except as otherwise provided for herein, LG will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the applicable arbitration 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

62 LIMITED WARRANTY

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 applicable laws), then the payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the applicable arbitration 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 applicable arbitration 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 (1) on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the applicable arbitration rules. If your claim exceeds 25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the applicable arbitration rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held at the nearest, most mutually-convenient arbitration location available within the province or territory in which you reside unless you and LG both agree to another location or agree to a telephonic arbitration.

Severability and Waiver. If any portion of this Limited Warranty (including these arbitration procedures) is unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Should LG fail to enforce strict performance of any provision of this Limited Warranty (including these arbitration procedures), it does not mean that LG intends to waive or has waived any provision or part of this Limited Warranty.

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 [e-mail], 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 serial number (the serial number can be found (i) on the product; or (ii) online by accessing https://www/lg.com/ca_en/support/repair-service/schedule-repair and clicking on "Find My Model & Serial Number").

In the event that you "Opt Out", the law of the province or territory of your residence shall govern this Limited Warranty and any disputes between you and LG except to the extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal or provincial/territorial law. Should arbitration not be permitted for any claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG, you and LG agree to attend to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province or territory of your residence for the resolution of the claim, action, dispute or controversy between you and LG.

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.

Conflict of Terms. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Limited Warranty and the End User License Agreement ("EULA") in regards to dispute resolution, the terms of this Limited Warranty shall control and govern the rights and obligations of the parties and shall take precedence over the EULA.
