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.

batteries or cables, it may cause battery charging delay. Or this can cause the battery  
to explode or damage the device, which are not covered by the warranty.

2. Connecting a USB device to your tablet  
The USB peripheral port is located at the upper of the device. Insert the USB port and plug it  
into the other device.  
USB devices are supported through the USB port, such as a keyboard, mouse, game  
controller, digital camera, or storage device(including an Android smartphone acting as  
external storage device). As most USB keyboards, mouse and game controllers are designed  
for desktop computers and operation systems, some devices may not function.  
NOTE  
Only devices that meet the USB Spec may connect to the USB (Host mode) connector.  
If you are experiencing errors in device recognition, please use a shorter USB cable or  
check the USB Hub with external power supply (Self-Powered Hub).

storage device.  
Transferring data through both USB devices at the same time is impossible. First  
connecting has priority. When a USB device is connected such as a keyboard, or mouse  
through USB Port, another USB device can be connected to charge only.
