Compact Scooter
Note: Other types of hand-held devices such as cordless phones, laptop
computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, cassette players and small
appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, are not likely to cause
any EMC problems to your mobility scooter.
Mobility scooter electromagnetic contamination (EMC).
EM energy rapidly intensifies the closer one moves to the transmitting
antenna, the source. Because of this it is possible to bring strong EM fields
unintentionally close to your mobility scooter’s control system. Mobile
hand-held radio type transceivers are of particular concern. Whilst such
devices are in use, it is possible that the EM radiation can affect the mobility
scooter’s movement and braking.
The following warnings are recommended to help prevent possible
interference with your mobility scooter’s control system.
1. Do not operate hand-held transceivers, such as CB radio or turn ON cellular
phones, whilst your mobility scooter is turned ON.
2. Be aware of nearby radio or television transmitters and try to avoid coming
too close to them.
3. If you experience unintended movement or brake release, switch your
scooter OFF as soon as it is safe to do so.
4. Adding accessories, components or modifying the mobility scooter, may
increase susceptibility to EMC (EMI).
Note:
There is no easy way of assessing the effect of any modification on a
scooter’s EM immunity.
5. If you experience any EMC (EMI) related incidents, please report them to
your dealer, noting if there is a possible source of EM transmission nearby.
Notes:
