itself.
4.1 Special information concerning the operation: Due to safety rea
-
sons the stair climber s-max sella may not be used on escalators and moving
walkways!
4.1.1 Environmental conditions, electro-magnetic compatibility: Elec
-
tro-magnetic compatibility means that an electric device functions properly
in its electro-magnetic environment without influencing other devices in the
same environment.
Warning: Radio wave sources may affect powered device control!
Radio wave source, such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM)
transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones, can affect your s-max
sella. Following the warning listed below should reduce the chance of unin
-
tended brake release or movement, which could result in serious injury.
F
Do not turn ON hand-held personal communication devices, such as
citizens band (CB) radios and cellular phones, while the s-max sella
is turned ON.
F
Be aware of nearby transmitter, such as radio or TV stations, and try
to avoid coming close to them.
F
If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the powered
s-max sella OFF as soon as it is safe.
F
Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the
s-max sella, may take it more susceptible to interference from radio
wave sources (Note: There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on
the overall immunity to the s-max sella).
F
Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the
s-max sella manufacturer, and note whether there is a radio wave
source nearby.
Important EMI-Information:
F
20 Volts per meter (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immu
-
nity level against interference from radio wave sources (as of May
1994) (the higher the level, the greater the protection).
F
This device has an immunity level of 20 V/m with no accessories
connected to the device.
F
Nevertheless, always check whether the device’s electronic
functions work properly before each use. This is particularly impor
-
tant if there is an aerial mast nearby.
F
Please note that the s-max sella may interfere with other electronic
devices’ sensitive electro-magnetic fields (e.g. anti-theft systems in
department stores). This may also happen if you connect other devi
