PM Indicator Display

1. Press the Indicator button to check the density of PM10/PM2.5/PM1.0.

Pressing the button repeatedly toggles through to check the density of PM10 PM2.5 PM1.0 in turn. The selected density displays for 10 seconds before the display reverts to the highest measured PM level.

2. Check the dust particle size LED indicators.

PM density is displayed based on the dust density result with the highest contamination level. For example, if PM10 density is 100 (normal), PM2.5 is 50 (bad), and PM1.0 is 30 (normal), the value for PM2.5 is displayed for PM density.

Air Quality Indicator Light

Overall indoor air quality is displayed as one of four colors depending on the contamination level of PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0, and odors.

(contaminated) red orange yellow green (clean)

The color that the air quality indicator light displays is based on the worst level among PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0, and odor.

Turbo Function

Use this function to set the air purifier at the highest setting for 30 minutes.

1. Press the button.

2. Press the Turbo button.

The air purifier operates at the highest setting for 30 minutes and then returns to the previous setting.

If the Turbo function is selected while the air purifier is in the sleep mode, the PM density display turns off after 3 seconds, the Turbo function operates for 30 minutes, and then the product returns to the sleep mode.

G L IS

H

In the example above, the PM1.0 density displays at 50 ug/m (a bad or orange level) and the dust particle size LED indicator for PM1.0 is lit. This indicates that the PM1.0 level is higher than the PM10 or PM2.5 levels. If all the PM density levels are normal/good and the air quality indicator light is orange/red, the level of odors is very high.

NOTE PM10 and PM2.5 density levels follow standards provided by the U.S. EPA (Environmental Protection

Agency). - The overall air quality level displayed on the product may differ from the level announced by the EPA.

The PM density level for PM1.0 is displayed in the same manner as the PM density level for PM2.5 (using standards developed by LG Electronics).

The displayed density of PM10 / PM2.5 could differ from the forecast of the EPA and from other measurement devices or products. - Indicated dust concentration values can differ from each other depending on the differences in dust measuring methods and also from real dust concentration levels.

- The assessment of dust density was made against dust used for LG Electronics standards tests. The use of products which generate steam and micro particles (humidifiers, cooling devices, sprayers, etc.)

can change the micro dust density. Because the indoor air quality display shows the overall dust and odor level, it could differ from the density

value of PM10, PM2.5, and PM1.0 Even in the same space, the PM10 density value could differ from other products due to air circulation. The displayed PM density value could change depending on the installation environment (including the

presence of sofas, beds, carpets, vacuum cleaners, humidity, smoke, oils, and other factors). The displayed density value of PM10/PM2.5/PM1.0 could change depending on the surrounding

environment (construction site, roadside, factory, etc.) The density of micro dust could be higher near exit doors, windows, and vents or anywhere where outside

air enters. Do not clean the sensor with anything but water. Doing so may cause product failure.

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 persons or entitys 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 AAAs 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 arbitrators 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 purchasers 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.
