emits radio frequency energy during use. The following consumer
information addresses commonly asked questions about the health
effects of wireless devices.
Scientiic research on the subject of wireless devices and radio frequency
(“RF”) energy has been conducted worldwide for many years, and
continues. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)
and the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) set policies and
procedures for wireless devices. The FDA issued a website publication on
health issues related to device usage where it states, “The scientiic
community at large … believes that the weight of scientiic evidence does
not show an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF) from the
devices and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientiic community does
recommend conducting additional research to address gaps in knowledge.
That research is being conducted around the world and FDA continues to
monitor developments in this ield. You can access the joint FDA/FCC
website at http://www.fda.gov (under “C” in the subject index, select Cell
Phones > Research). You can also contact the FDA toll-free at (888)
463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA. In June 2000, the FDA entered into a
cooperative research and development agreement through which additional
scientiic research is being conducted. The FCC issued its own website
Safety
publication stating that “there is no scientiic evidence that proves that
wireless device usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems,
including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.”
This publication is available at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety or through
the FCC at (888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.
What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, and other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for
wireless devices in the United States. Before a wireless device model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested by the manufacturer and
certiied to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by the FCC.
One of these limits is expressed as a Speciic Absorption Rate, or “SAR.”
SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests
for SAR are conducted with the device transmitting at its highest power
level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that
the SAR of handheld wireless devices not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram,
averaged over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR
value of a wireless device while operating can be less than the reported
SAR value. This is because the SAR value may vary from call to call,
depending on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity of the
device to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free devices. Before
a device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certiied to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and next to the body)
as required by the FCC for each model.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on ile with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.
fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC ID ZNFVK410.

at http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/
bulletins or visit the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
website at http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You
may also wish to contact the manufacturer of your device.
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take
to minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time.
You can place more distance between your body and the source of the RF,
as the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC
website states that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless devices for
convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF
energy in the head because the device, which is the source of the RF
emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the
device is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use,
then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless devices
marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless
of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either
coniguration should result in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you
use your wireless device while in a car, you can use a device with an
antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your
wireless device manufacturer’s instructions for the safe operation of your
device.
Do wireless devices pose any special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientiic evidence does not show a
danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children.”
The FDA/FCC website further states that “some groups sponsored by
other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from
using wireless devices at all”. For example, the Stewart Report from the
United Kingdom [“UK”] made such a recommendation in December 2000.
In this report a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists
that using a device causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The UK’s]
recommendation to limit device use by children was strictly precautionary;
it was not based on scientiic evidence that any health hazard exists. A
Safety
copy of the UK’s lealet is available at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search
“mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ,
United Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports on mobile device and
RF are available online at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.hpa.org.uk/
radiation/ (search “mobile”). Parents who wish to reduce their children’s RF
exposure may choose to restrict their children’s wireless device use.

Consumer Information on SAR
(Speciic Absorption Rate)
This model device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientiic organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientiic studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of
measurement known as the Speciic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions speciied
by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certiied power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest
certiied power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can
be well below the maximum value. Because the device is designed to
operate at multiple power levels to use only the power required to reach
the network, in general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certiied to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and next to the body)
as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this device when worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 0.77 W/kg. (body-worn measurements differ among
device models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
117
118
Safety
requirements). While there may be differences between SAR levels of
various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on ile with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.
fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID ZNFVK810. Additional
information on Speciic Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://
www.ctia.org/.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile device used by
the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The
standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
Caution:
Avoid potential hearing loss
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common
cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientiic research suggests that
using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular
telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to
permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the use of
headphones (including headsets, earbuds and Bluetooth® or other wireless
devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in some
studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound, and
distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and
other potential hearing problems varies. The amount of sound produced by
a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the
device, the device settings, and the headphones. You should follow some
commonsense recommendations when using any portable audio device:
Safety
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at
which you can hear adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the
people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear
what you are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose
to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use noisecancelling headphones to block out background environmental noise.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is
required before your hearing could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as
rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary
hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience
ringing in your ears, hear mufled speech, or experience any temporary
hearing dificulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue
use and consult your doctor.

TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld
devices.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable device is a low power radio transmitter and
receiver. When ON, it receives and sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by
both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientiic literature. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies,
Safety
and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI
Standard (C95.1).
The design of your device complies with the FCC guidelines (and those
standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modiications, or attachments could damage the device and may
violate FCC regulations.
Tips on Eficient Operation
For your device to operate most eficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the tablet is in use. Contact
with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the tablet to operate at
a higher power level than otherwise needed.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However,
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless device.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the tablet more than six (6) inches from their
pacemaker when the device is turned ON;
• Should not carry the tablet in a breast pocket;
121
122
Safety
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference;
• Should turn the tablet OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider
(or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives).
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your tablet OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your tablet OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your device while in the air. Switch OFF your
tablet before boarding an aircraft.
Safety
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your tablet OFF when in a
“blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs
and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn your tablet OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or ire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
marked clearly. Potential areas may include: fueling areas (such as gasoline
stations); below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liqueied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain,
dust, or metal powders); and any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inlates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly
installed and the air bag inlates, serious injury could result.
FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices
and Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Tablets:
1. Do wireless tablets pose a health hazard?
The available scientiic evidence does not show that any health problems
are associated with using wireless tablets.
There is no proof, however, that wireless tablets are absolutely safe.
Wireless tablets emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy in the
microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF
when in idle mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects
123
124
Safety
(by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level
RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have
suggested that some biological effects may occur, but such indings have
not been conirmed by additional research. In some cases, other
researchers have had dificulty in reproducing those studies, or in
determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless tablets?
Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting
consumer products such as wireless tablets before they can be sold, as it
does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless tablets are shown to emit Radio
Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a
case, the FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless tablets to notify
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the tablets so that
the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientiic data does not justify FDA regulatory actions,
the FDA has urged the wireless tablet industry to take a number of steps,
including the following:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type
emitted by wireless tablets;
• Design wireless tablets in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the
user that is not necessary for device function; and
• Cooperate in providing users of wireless tablets with the best possible
information on possible effects of wireless tablet use on human health.
The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies
that have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure
coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to
this working group:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
Safety
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working
group activities, as well.
The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless tablets with the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All tablets that are sold in the
United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF
exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless tablets.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless tablet networks
rely upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the
wireless tablets themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these
base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can
get from wireless tablets. Base stations are thus not the subject of the
safety questions discussed in this document.
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this update?
The term “wireless device” refers here to handheld wireless devices with
built-in antennas, often called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” devices. These
types of wireless devices can expose the user to measurable Radio
Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance between the device
and the user’s head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were
developed with the advice of the FDA and other federal health and safety
agencies. When the device is located at greater distances from the user,
the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure
decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source.
4. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conlicting results, and many
studies have suffered from laws in their research methods. Animal
experiments investigating the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy
exposures characteristic of wireless devices have yielded conlicting results
that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies,
125
126
Safety
however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the
development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies
that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been
genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be
pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other
studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use
wireless devices, so we do not know with certainty what the results of
such studies mean for human health. Three large epidemiology studies
have been published since December 2000. Between them, the studies
investigated any possible association between the use of wireless devices
and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma,
tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from
wireless device RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer
questions about long-term exposures, since the average period of device
use in these studies was around three years.
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from
wireless tablets poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people
actually using wireless tablets would provide some of the data that are
needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few
years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide
reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological
studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human populations,
but ten or more years follow-up may be needed to provide answers about
some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval between
the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors
develop — if they do — may be many, many years. The interpretation of
epidemiological studies is hampered by dificulties in measuring actual RF
exposure during day-to-day use of wireless tablets. Many factors affect this
measurement, such as the angle at which the tablet is held, or which
model of tablet is used.
Safety
6. What is the FDA doing to ind out more about the possible health
effects of wireless tablet RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with
groups of investigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal
studies are conducted to address important questions about the effects of
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization
International Electro Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in
1996. An inluential result of this work has been the development of a
detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of
new research programs around the world. The project has also helped
develop a series of public information documents on EMF issues.
The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
have a formal Cooperative Research And Development Agreement
(CRADA) to do research on wireless device safety. The FDA provides the
scientiic oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry,
and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through
contracts with independent investigators. The initial research will include
both laboratory studies and studies of wireless device users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the
context of the latest research developments around the world.
7. How can I ind out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I
can get by using my wireless tablet?
All tablets sold in the United States must comply with Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency
(RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these guidelines in
consultation with the FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies.
The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless devices is set at a Speciic
Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC limit
is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into
consideration the body’s ability to remove heat from the tissues that absorb
energy from the wireless tablet and is set well below levels known to have
127
128
Safety
effects. Manufacturers of wireless tablets must report the RF exposure
level for each model of tablet to the FCC. The FCC website (http://www.
fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives directions for locating the FCC identiication
number on your tablet so you can ind your tablet’s RF exposure level in the
online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy
coming from wireless tablets?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a
technical standard for measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy
exposure from wireless tablets and other wireless handsets with the
participation and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard,
“Recommended Practice for Determining the Spatial-Peak Speciic
Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless
Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the irst
consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is
deposited in the heads and bodies of wireless tablet users. The test
method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human head and body.
Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the
consistency of measurements made at different laboratories on the same
tablet. SAR is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in
tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured
in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to
determine whether a wireless tablet complies with safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency
energy from my wireless tablet?
If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know
that there is — it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about
avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize
your exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key factor in
how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent
using a wireless tablet will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct
extended conversations using a wireless device every day, you could place
more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the
exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could
Safety
use a headset and carry the wireless tablet away from your body or use a
wireless device connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientiic data
does not demonstrate that wireless tablets are harmful. But if you are
concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use
measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from
wireless tablet use.
10. What about children using wireless tablets?
The scientiic evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
tablets, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the measures described above
would apply to children and teenagers using wireless tablets. Reducing the
time of wireless tablet use and increasing the distance between the user
and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that
children be discouraged from using wireless devices at all. For example, the
government in the United Kingdom distributed lealets containing such a
recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists
that using a wireless device causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit wireless device use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientiic evidence that any health
hazard exists.
11. What about wireless communications device interference with
medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless communications devices can
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped
develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference
(EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and deibrillators from wireless
devices. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the
Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The
inal draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device manufacturers, and
many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and deibrillators are safe
from wireless communications device EMI.
129
130
Safety
The FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless
devices and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute
of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard speciies test
methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless
communications devices so that no interference occurs when a person
uses a “compatible” device and a “compatible” hearing aid at the same
time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless communications devices
for possible interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful
interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to assess the
interference and work to resolve the problem.

Tablet software update
Tablet software update
The tablet software update feature allows you to conveniently update the
irmware of your tablet to the latest version from the Internet without the
need to visit a service center. For more information on irmware and
software updates, please visit: http://www.lg.com
NOTE
Your tablet utilizes both irmware and software. Firmware is a specialized type of
software embedded into your tablet’s hardware which allows it to run correctly (e.g.,
functions, speed, communication, etc.) and determines how it stores bits of information.
The irmware on your tablet comes from LG and is written speciically for it. On the
other hand, software can come from a variety of sources and can be used on various
compatible devices.
You can access the latest irmware releases, new software features, and
improvements with or without connecting your tablet to a PC.
• Update your tablet without a PC using the System updates menu on
your tablet.
• Update your tablet by connecting it to a PC using a USB Cable.
For more information and instructions, please visit http://www.lg.com and
select the country and language.
WARNING The irmware update process requires the user’s full attention for the duration of the
update process. Please make sure to check all of the instructions and notes that
appear at each step before proceeding.
NOTE Removing the USB Cable during the update process may seriously damage your tablet.

Software update via Over-the-Air (OTA)
You can conveniently update your tablet’s irmware to the newer version
via OTA without connecting the USB Cable.
NOTE
This feature is only available if and when LG makes the newer version of the irmware
available for your device.
Tablet software update
First, check the software version on your tablet:
(touch key at the bottom
From the Home screen, tap the Menu key
of the tablet) > Settings > About tablet > Software information.
If a software update is available for your tablet, you can perform a software
update:

From the Home screen, tap the Menu key
of the tablet) > Settings > System updates > Check for new system
update.
NOTE
LG reserves the right to make irmware updates available only for selected models at its
own discretion and does not guarantee the availability of the newer version of the
irmware for all handset models.
WARNING! Your personal data — including information about your Google Account and any other
accounts, your system/application data and settings, any downloaded applications,
and your DRM licence — might be lost in the process of updating your device's
software. Therefore, LG recommends that you backup your personal data before
updating your tablet's software. LG does not take responsibility for any loss of
personal data.

LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT
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 conlict. [CC §1790.3.]
For purposes of small claims actions, this course will focus on rights
and duties under the state laws.
