SAFETY INFORMATION ON
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI)
CAUTION : It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible
effects of Electromagnetic Interference on your motorized scooter.
Powered wheelchairs and motorized scooters may be susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources
s
uch a radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios,
and cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the motorized
scooter to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended directions. It can also
p
ermanently damage the motorized scooter control system. The intensity of the interfering
E
M energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each motorized scooter can resist
E
MI up to certain intensity. This is called its "immunity level." The higher the immunity
l
evel, the greater the protection. At this time, current technology is capable of achieving
a
t least a 20 V/m immunity level, which would provide useful protection from the more
common sources of radiated EMI. This immunity level of this motorized scooter model
i
s 30 V/m.
T
here are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in the everyday
environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not apparent
and exposure is unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings listed
b
elow, your risk to EMI will be minimized.
1.Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitters-receivers) with the antenna mounted
directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include: citizens band (CB) radios, "walkie
talkie," security, fire, and police transceivers, cellular telephones, and other personal
communication devices;
2.Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks,
ambulances, and taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of the
vehicle; and
3
.Long-range transmitters and transceivers such as commercial broadcast transmitters
(radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.
The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types :
Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while they
are ON, even when not being used.
Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop
computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, and cassette players,
and small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, so far
as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to your motorized
scooter.
