IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

2

•Only one person at a time can ride a C.T.M. Mobility Scooter.

•Maximum load is 135 kg / 300 lbs.

•Turn the key off before getting on or off your scooter.

•Always drive carefully with your feet on the floorboard and be aware of others in

your area.

•Always use pedestrian crossings where possible. Take extreme care crossing roads.

•Do not drive on slopes exceeding 12 degrees, and take extreme care when turning

on slopes.

•Do not use full power when turning sharp corners.

•Do not drive the scooter unless the seat and the tiller are locked and secured in the

driving position.

•Do not use the scooter if the rear anti-tip wheels are damaged or removed.

•Take great care and use low speeds for backing up, riding downhill, over uneven

surfaces and curb climbing.

•The scooter may not operate well in high humidity.

•Never put your scooter in neutral on slopes.

•Follow all traffic laws when you ride in the vicinity of public roads.

•It is NOT recommended to use your scooter in wet environments as it may cause

damage. Electronic equipment damaged by any liquid form is not covered under
the warranty.

Instruction Booklet5-Series

Powered wheelchairs and motorized scooters may be susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources
such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios,
and cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the motorized
scooter to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended directions. It can also
permanently damage the motorized scooter control system. The intensity of the interfering
EM energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each motorized scooter can resist
EMI up to a certain intensity. This is called its "immunity level." The higher the immunity
level, the greater the protection will be. At this time, current technology is capable of
achieving at least a 20 V/m immunity level, which would provide useful protection from the
more common sources of radiated EMI. The immunity level of this motorized scooter model
is 10 v/m.

There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in the everyday
environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not
apparent and exposure is unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings
listed below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.

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.

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.

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
AND WARNINGS

3

CAUTION: It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible
effects of Electromagnetic Interference on your motorized scooter.

Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while
they are ON, even when not being used.

The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types：

3.Long-range transmitters and transceivers such as commercial broadcast transmitters
(radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.

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 motorized scooter control system while using these devices. This can affect
motorized scooter movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed below are
recommended to prevent possible interference with the control system of the motorized
scooter.

Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop
c

omputers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, and cassette players,
and small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, so far
a

s we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to your motorized
scooter.

Motorized Scooter Electromagnetic Interference：

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur
radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones can affect motorized
scooters. Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended
brake release or motorized scooter 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 motorized scooter is turned ON;

2.Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid coming
close to them;

3.If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the motorized scooter OFF as
soon as it is safe;

Warnings：

4.Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the motorized scooter,
may make it more susceptible to EMI; and.

5.Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the distributor listed
on the inside front cover of this manual. Note whether there is a source of EMI nearby.

1.20 volts per meter (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immunity level against
EMI (as of May 1994). The higher the level, the greater the protection.

2.The immunity level of this product is at least 20/Vm.

There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the overall immunity
of the motorized scooter.
