Other types of hand-held devices like cellular telephones, laptop computers, AM/FM radios, and small appliances like hair
dryers or electric shavers may also generate electromagnetic energy, but it is such a small amount that, as far as we know,
no EMI problems should occur with these devices.
The intensity of interference from electromagnetic energy is measured in volts per meter (v/m), which refers to the
strength of the electrical source (voltage) as it relates to the distance away from the object being considered (in meters).
Resistance of a vehicle to a certain EMI intensity is commonly called its “immunity level.” A level of 20 volts/meter is a
generally achievable and useful immunity level against interference from radio wave sources (the higher the immunity level,
the greater the protection).
Your vehicle has been tested and found to meet the required immunity level for Electromagnetic Interference (20 v/m).
Report all incidents of unintended movement or unexpected brake releases to Electric Mobility’s customer service
department.
WARNING!
Even with an immunity level of 20 volt/meter, certain precautions must be
followed to ensure that your vehicle will not be affected by outside
electromagnetic sources.
