LG will, at its sole option, either repair, replace or refund the purchase price of any unit that is covered under
this limited warranty. LG may choose at its option to use functionally equivalent re-conditioned, refurbished or
new units or parts or any units. In addition, LG will not re-install or back-up any data, applications or software
that you have added to your tablet. It is therefore recommended that you back-up any such data or information

No other express warranty is applicable to this product. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES,

DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL, ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIS PRODUCT OR
FOR ANY BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MARKETABILITY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow the exclusive limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitations on
how long an implied warranty lasts; so these limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty
gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

7.11 Warranty Laws
• The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of consumer goods:
• The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC §§1790 et seq],
• The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C §§2101 et seq], and The
federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act [15 USC
§§2301 et seq; 16 CFR Parts 701– 703]. A typical Magnuson-Moss Act warranty is a
written promise that the product is free of defects or a written promise to refund, repair,
or replace defective goods. [See 15 USC §2301(6).] Remedies include damages for failing
to honor a written warranty or service contract or for violating disclosure provisions. [See
15 USC §2310(d).] Except for some labeling and disclosure requirements, the federal Act
does not preempt state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]
The Consumer Warranty Act does not affect the rights and obligations of parties under the
state Uniform Commercial Code, except the provisions of the Act prevail over provisions of the
Commercial Code when they confl ict. [CC §1790.3.]
For purposes of small claims actions, this course will focus on rights and duties under the state
laws.
