• Always consult your doctor or therapist for correct use of the device.
• Keep the packaged product away from sources of heat, as the packaging is cardboard.
• The lifetime of the device depends on wear and tear of non-repairable and/or non-replaceable
parts.

6. GENERAL INFORMATION ON ELECTROMAGNETIC DISTURBANCE
The rapid growth of electronics, especially in communications, has saturated the environment
with electromagnetic radiation (EM) emitted by television, radio and communication signals.
These EM waves are invisible and are stronger the closer you are to their source. All electrical
conductors act as antennas for EM signals and, to varying extents, all electric wheelchairs and
scooters may be affected by electromagnetic interference (EMI). EMI may cause unintentional
movements and/or irregular control of the vehicle.
The electromagnetic energy emitted by sources such as:
• radio stations;
• TV stations;
• amateur radio stations;
• shop alarm systems;
• mobile telephones and cordless telephones can interfere with electric wheelchairs and
electric scooters;
The interference can cause the electromagnetic brake to release, unintentional movement of
the device and movement in the wrong direction. It can also permanently damage the device's
electronic control unit. In our everyday environment, there are a certain number of intense
sources of EMI.
The intensity of the EM energy can be measured in Volts per metre (V/m). Your electric
wheelchair is equipped with a protection against EMI which has been tested and certified as
compliant with current international regulations, up to a certain intensity. This is called the
“level of immunity” The greater the level of immunity, the better the device is protected.
At this time, technology can provide a level of immunity of at least 20 V/m; this is sufficient
protection against the most common sources of EMI. However, we consider that the following
precautions can further minimise the risk.
