III. EMI/RFI
The rapid development of electronics, especially in the area of communications, has
saturated our environment with electromagnetic (radio) waves that are emitted by
television transmitters, cellular phones, citizen’s band radios (CBs) amateur radios (HAM
radios), wireless computer links, microwave transmitters, paging transmitters, etc. These
electromagnetic (EM) waves are invisible and increase in strength the closer one gets to
the source of transmission. When these energy waves act upon electrical devices and
cause them to malfunction or to function in an erratic or uncontrolled manner, they are
referred to as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
EMI/RFI AND YOUR
Alanté
All electrically powered vehicles, including power chairs are susceptible to EMI/RFI. This
interference could result in abnormal or unintended movement of your
Golden Alanté .
Unintended movement or brake release could cause an accident
or injury.
The FDA has determined that each make and model of power chair can resist EMI/RFI to
a certain level. The higher the level of immunity, the greater the degree of protection from
EMI/RFI measured in volts per meter (V/m). The FDA has also determined that current
technology is capable of providing 20 V/m of immunity to EMI/RFI, which would provide
useful protection against common sources of interference. This product has been tested
and has passed an immunity level of 20 V/m.
EMI/RFI RECOMMENDATIONS
PROHIBITED! Do not turn on or use hand-held personal electronic
communication devices such as cellular phones, walkie-talkies, or CB
radios while your power chair is turned on.
• Be aware of any nearby transmitters (radio, television, microwave, etc.) on your
intended route and avoid operation your of power chair close to any of those
transmitters.
• Turn off the power if your Alanté is going to be in a stationary position for any length of
time.
• Be aware that adding accessories or components or modifying your power chair may
make it more susceptible to EMI/RFI.
• If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn your power chair off as soon as
it is safe to do so.
• Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake failure to your Golden
Technologies representative or to Golden Technologies.
TURN OFF YOUR POWER CHAIR AS SOON AS IT IS SAFELY
POSSIBLE IF UNINTENDED OR UNCONTROLLABLE MOTION OCCURS OR IF
UNINTENDED BRAKE RELEASE OCCURS.
