3) Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as commercial broadcast
transmitters (radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM)
radios.
NOTE: Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop
computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, and cassette players, and
small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, so far as we know,
are not likely to cause EMI problems to your powered Recreational Vehicle.
Powered Recreational Vehicle Electromaqnetic Interference (EMI)
Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the
transmitting antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio wave
sources (transceivers) are of special concern. It is possible to unintentionally
bring high levels of EM energy very close to the powered Recreational
Vehicle's control system while using these devices. This can affect powered
Recreational Vehicle movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed
below are recommended to prevent possible interference with the control
system of the powered Recreational Vehicle.
WARNINGS
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV
stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular
phones can affect powered Recreational Vehicles and motorized scooters.
Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended
brake release or powered Recreational Vehicle movement which could result
in serious injury.
1) Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters-receivers), such as
citizens band (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such
as cellular phones, while the powered Recreational Vehicle is turned ON;
2) Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to
avoid coming close to them;
