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 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 attorney’s
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-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 the 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 the 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
attorn 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 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
attorney’s 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
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/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 attorn 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 regard 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.
