IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using the range hood, follow basic safety precautions, including the following:

WARNING

•If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged hood.

•Make sure that the range hood has been properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to the accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the fuse or junction box so that you know where and how to turn the power off.

•Do not install, repair or replace any part of the range hood unless specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A qualified service technician should perform all other service.

•To avoid the risk of electric shock, before servicing the range hood, switch power off at the fuse or junction box and lock the electrical panel door to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the electrical panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

•To avoid the risk of electric shock, before cleaning the range hood, turn off the main power switch.

•Use the range hood only for its intended purpose as outlined in this manual. DO NOT use this range hood to vent hazardous or explosive materials or vapors. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

•Do not tamper with the controls.

•Never allow the filters to become blocked or clogged. Do not allow foreign objects, such as cigarettes or napkins, to be sucked into the hood.

•If the cooktop and range hood are near a window, use an appropriate window treatment. Avoid long drapes or other window coverings that could blow over the cooktop and hood, resulting in a fire hazard.

•Always run the fan(s) whenever the cooktop is operating.

•Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the cooktop and range hood are in use. Never allow children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do not let children play with a range, cooktop or range hood. Do not store items of interest to children above or around the cooktop, range or range hood.

•The minimum vertical distance between the cooktop surface and the exterior part of the hood must be no less than 26" (66 cm). The required vertical distance may be longer for the range or cooktop being used. Consult the range or cooktop installation instructions for the minimum vertical distance from the appliance being used.

•To reduce the risk of a range-top grease fire:

– Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs cause smoking and

greasy spill-overs that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

– Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes

Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

– Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on

fan or filter.

– Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface

element.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ENGLISH

WARNING

•TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGETOP GREASE FIRE:

– SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal tray, then turn

off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out

immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. – NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned. – DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish cloths or towels - a violent steam explosion

may result. – Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:

• You have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

• The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

• The fire department is being called.

• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

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 1000 Sylvan Ave, Englewood Cliffs 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

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 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.

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 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-repaircontinued 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.
