Modifications
Your scooter has been designed to be as practical as
possible. However, under no circumstances should
you modify, add, remove, or disable any part or
function of your scooter. Personal injury and damage
to the scooter may result.
1. Do not modify your power scooter in any way not
authorized by EV Rider. Do not use accessories
if they have not been tested or approved for EV
Rider products.
2. Get to know the feel of your power scooter and
its capabilities. EV Rider recommends that
you perform a safety check before each use to
make sure your scooter operates safely.
Inspections prior to using your power scooter:
1. Please check all electrical connections and make
sure they are tight and not corroded.
2. Please check all harness connections and make
sure they are secured properly.
3. Please check the brakes.
Weight limitation.
1. Do not exceed the weight capacity stated in the
Specification section. Exceeding the weight
capacity voids your warranty. EV Rider will not
be held responsible for injuries or property
damage resulting from failure to observe weight
limitations.
2. Do not carry passengers on scooters. Carrying
passengers on your scooter may affect the center
of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.
Temperature
1. Some of the parts of the scooter are susceptible
to change in temperature. The controller can only
operate in temperature that ranges between
-25ºC ~ 50ºC (-13ºF to 122ºF).
2. At extreme low temperatures, the batteries may
freeze, and your scooter may not be able to
operate. In extreme high temperatures, it may
operate at slower speeds due to a safety feature
of the controller that prevents damage to the
motors and other electrical components.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
The rapid development of electronics, especially in
the area of communications, has saturated our
environment with electromagnetic (EM) radio waves
that are emitted by television, radio and
communication signals. These EM wave are invisible
and their strength increases as one approaches the
source. All electrical conductors act as antennas to
the EM signals and, to varying degrees, all power
wheelchairs and scooters are susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). The interference
could result in abnormal, unintentional movement
and/or erratic control of the vehicle. Power scooters
may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic energy
emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV
stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way
radios, cellular phones and alarm systems. The
interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the
power scooter to release its brakes, move by itself or
move in unintended directions. It can also
permanently damage the powered scooter’s control
system. The intensity of the EM energy can be
measured in volts per meter (V/m).Each powered
scooter can resist EMI up to a certain intensity. This is
called “immunity level”. The higher the immunity
level
the greater the protection. At this time, current
technology is capable of providing at least 20 V/m of
immunity level, which would provide useful protection
against common sources of radiated EMI.
Following the warnings listed below should reduce
the chance of unintended brake release or powered
scooter movement that could result in serious injury:
1.
Do not turn on hand-held personal
communication devices such as citizens band
(CB) radios and cellular phones while the
powered scooter is turned on.
2.
Be aware of nearby transmitters such as radio
or TV stations and try to avoid coming close to
them.
3.
If unintended movement or brake release
occurs, turn the powered scooter off as soon as
it is safe.
