WARNINGS
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and
TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and
cellular phones can effect powered scooter and motorized scooters.
Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of
unintended brake release or powered scooter movement, which
could result in serious injury
• Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters-receivers)
such as citizens band (CB) radios or turn ON personal
communication devices, such as cellular phones, while the
powered scooter is turned ON
• Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations,
and try to avoid coming close to them
• If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the
powered scooter OFF as soon as it is safe
• Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying
the powered scooter, may make it more susceptible to EMI
(Note: There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the
overall immunity of the motorized scooter)
• Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release of
the motorized scooter to the manufacturer and NOTE whether
there is a source of EMI nearby
• 20 volts per meter (v/m) is generally an achievable and useful
immunity level against EMI (The higher the level, the greater the
protection)
