EMI
– ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
WARNING: It is important that you read this information regarding the
possible effects of electromagnetic interference on your EasyTravel Lite .

The EasyTravel Lite scooter might disturb the operation of devices in its
environment that emit electromagnetic fields (e.g. alarm systems,
automatic doors, etc.).

The driving performance of the EasyTravel Lite scooter can be
influenced by electromagnetic fields (e.g. those emitted by portable
telephones, electricity generators or high power sources).
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) From Radio Wave Sources
Motorized scooters may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI),
which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources such
as radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way
radios, and cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can
cause scooters to release their brakes, come to a sudden stop, or move in an
uncontrolled manner. It ca
n also permanently damage a scooter’s control
system. The intensity of the interfering EM energy can be measured in volts
per motor (V/m). Each Motorized scooter can resist EMI up to a certain
intensity. This is called its “immunity level". The higher the immunity level, the
greater the protection. The FDA has stated that all newly manufactured
electric mobility vehicle models should have a resistance of at least 20 V/m,
which would provide a reasonable degree of protection from the more
common sources of radiated EMI.
Your EasyTravel Lite as shipped, with no further modification, has an
immunity level of 20 V/m. This immunity was tested with the inclusion of these
accessories: a utility basket with a spare battery-pack and the charger unit
carried inside it.
There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic
fields in the everyday environment. Some of these sources are obvious
and easy to avoid. Others are not apparent and exposure is
unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings listed
below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.
