Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from Radio Wave Sources
1.
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.
The United States Food and drug Administration (FDA) suggests that the following statement be
incorporated to the user’s manual for all power wheelchairs like the P25
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 wheelchair off as soon as it is safe.
4. Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the powered wheel-chair, may make it
more susceptible to interference from radio wave sources.(Note: It is difficult to evaluate the effect on
