The coverage area of the air purifier is based on an area where the air
cleaner can make two air changes per hour (ACPH). An air change per hour
translates to how many times an air purifier can clean an area, assuming the
height of a ceiling to be 8 ft, in one hour. Therefore means four air
changes per hour means that the cleaner can clean the area once every 15
minutes. And means two air changes per hour means that the cleaner can
clean the area once every 30 minutes. And means one air change per hour
means that the air purifier can clean the area once every 60 minutes.
The energy efficiency of this ENERGY STAR-certified model is measured based on
a ratio between the model’s CADR for Smoke and the electrical energy it
consumes, or CADR/Watt.

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES
ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND COWAY 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 COWAY 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 “Coway” mean
Coway USA, 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 Coway in writing at least 30 days in advance
of initiating the arbitration by sending a letter to Coway at Coway USA, Inc.,
Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration, 4221 Wilshire Blvd., STE 210, Los
Angeles, CA 90010. You and Coway 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 Coway 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 Coway, you and Coway 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 Coway 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 Coway 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 Coway 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 Coway at Coway USA, Inc., Attn: Legal Department-
Arbitration, 4221 Wilshire Blvd., STE 210, Los Angeles, CA 90010. 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. If you prevail in the arbitration, Coway 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 Coway
for all monies previously disbursed by it which are otherwise your obligation
to pay under the AAA Rules.
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 Coway can require the other to participate in an
arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must send notice to Coway 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
info@cowaymega.com with the subject line:
“Arbitration Opt Out” or (ii) calling
1-800-285-0982. 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 on the
product. 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.
