EMI/RFI–This product has been tested
and passed at an immunity level of
20 V/m.
Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference
(EMI/RFI)
Laboratory tests have shown that electromagnetic and
radio frequency waves can have an adverse effect on the
performance of electrically powered mobility vehicles.
Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can
come from sources such as cellular phones, mobile two-way
radios (such as walkie-talkies), radio stations, TV stations,
amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, wireless computer links,
microwave signals, paging transmitters, and medium-range
mobile transceivers used by emergency vehicles. In some
cases, these waves can cause unintended movement or
damage to the control system. Every electrically powered
mobility vehicle has an immunity (or resistance) to EMI. The
higher the immunity level, the greater the protection against
EMI. This product has been tested and has passed at an
immunity level of 20 V/m.
Be aware that cell phones, two-way radios, laptops,
electricity gernerators or high power sources and other
types of radio transmitters may cause unintended
movement of your electrically powered mobility
vehicle due to EMI. Do not turn ON hand-held personal
communication devices, such as citizens band (CB)
radios and cellular phones, while the powered wheelchair
is turned on. Be aware of nearby transmitters, such
as radio or TV stations, and avoid coming into close
proximity to them.
The addition of accessories or components to the
electrically powered mobility vehicle can increase the
susceptibility of the vehicle to EMI. Do not modify your
power chair in any way not authorized by Pride.
The electrically powered mobility vehicle itself can
disturb the performance of other electrical devices
located nearby, such as alarm systems.
NOTE: For further information on EMI/RFI, go to
the Resource Center on www.pridemobility.com. If
unintended motion or brake release occurs, turn your
power chair off as soon as it is safe to do so. Call Pride
or contact your Pride/Quantum Rehab Provider to report
the incident.
