6. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE WARNING
The power wheelchair may be affected by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Therefore, it’s quite
essential for users to familiarize the instructions.
This section aims to describe the problems caused by the electromagnetic interference, which
can help users understand and take protective measures against the risks.
No modification of any form to the power wheelchair is allowed, including adding or removing
any parts, in case of decreasing its anti-interference ability.
The Interference of Electromagnetic Waves
The power wheelchair is susceptible to electromagnetic waves, the sources of
which come from broadcasting stations, TV stations, radio transmitters, and
the communication equipment such as two-way radios. Interference from these
electromagnetic waves may cause malfunction or permanent damage to the
wheelchair’s braking and control system. The power wheelchair has passed
the 30 V/m EMI test and has a certain degree of immunity to most common
electromagnetic energy sources in life.
1. Stay away from all radio wave emission sources, such as TV stations, Radio
station, etc.
2. If interference does occur and causes unintended movement to the
wheelchair in an uncontrolled manner, cut off the power immediately.
