EMI WARNING
Shoprider® scooters may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is a kind
of interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV
stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radio, and cellular phones. The
interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the scooter to release its brakes, move by
itself, or move in unintended directions. It can also permanently damage the scooter’s control
system.
The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types:
1. Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitters-receivers) with the antenna mounted
directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include citizens
band (CB) radios, “walkie
talkie”, security, fire and police transceivers, cellular telephones, and other personal
communication devices.
NOTE! Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while they are ON,
even when not being used.
2. Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks,
ambulances, and taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of
the vehicle.
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 problems to the
scooter.
Scooter Electromagnetic 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 sources (transceivers) are of special
concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high levels of EM energy very close to the
scooter’s control system while using these devices. This can affect scooter movement and
braking. Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to prevent possible
interference with the control system of the scooters.
