Important Information Regarding Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI) on
your vehicle.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) refers to the effects that outside sources of electromagnetic energy (radio and
television broadcasts, CB radios, garage door openers, etc.) might have on the control systems of your vehicle. The
interference from these sources could cause the vehicle to release its brakes, move by itself, or to move in an unintended
direction. EMI could also result in permanent damage to the control system.
The sources of electromagnetic energy can be broadly classified into three types:
• Hand held short-range portable transceivers — These are transmitter/receivers with the antenna mounted directly
on the unit. Examples include: citizen band (CB) radios, “walkie-talkies”, security, fire and police transceivers, and
devices that transmit signals even when not in use.
• Medium range mobile transceivers — These usually have the antenna mounted outside of a vehicle or building.
Examples include police, fire, and ambulance and taxi transceivers.
• Long range transmitters and receivers — These usually have the antenna mounted on a tower. Examples include
commercial radio and television broadcasts and amateur (HAM) radios.
