Warning!
Warning!
Warning!
Do not attempt to move an occupied scooter between floors using a stairway. Use an elevator to move an occupied powered scooter between floors. Do not attempt to lift the scooter by any removable parts. Lifting by means of any removable parts of a scooter may result in injury to the user or damage to the scooter. Do not use an escalator to move a scooter between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur. Do not attempt to lift the powered scooter by its tiller, seat or shrouds. Do not twist on scooter handles. Otherwise, damage or injury may occur.
STAIRWAYS AND ESCALATORS
Do not make sharp turns in the forward or reverse direction at excessive speed. Failure to observe the warning can cause the scooter to tip over and may result in injury to user and/or damage to the product. Always wear the security belt. The security belt is an optional item; we strongly recommend ordering the security belt as an additional safeguard for the scooter user. If any wear appears, security belt must be replaced immediately. Do not attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from the floor.
Do not stand on the foot plate while driving. Do not stand on the shroud(s) of the scooter. Do not lean over the top of the backrest to reach objects behind you, as this may cause the powered scooter to tip over. Do not shift your weight or sitting position toward the direction you are reaching as the scooter may tip over. Do not operate the scooter until you have checked that the surroundings are clear and that the area is safe for travel. Do not operate the scooter if it is behaving abnormally Do not use the scooter on highways. Do not attempt to move up or down an incline with water, ice or oil film. Avoid operating the scooter in dark or poorly lit areas. Do not climb and/or go up or down ramps or traverse slopes greater than 10°
Warning!
Warning!
Warning!
Do not leave the scooter in a rain storm of any kind. Do not use the scooter in a shower. Do not leave the scooter in a damp area for any length of time. Check to ensure that all electrical connections are secured at all times. Remove the key while the scooter is not in use so as to avoid injury and/or damage to the scooter and surrounding areas. Avoid storing or using the scooter near open flame or combustible products. Serious injury or damage to property may result.
Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of the scooter, possibly resulting in skin irritation. Extra caution when using your scooter in extremely hot or cold conditions or when exposing your scooter to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
On a slope, if the throttle control lever is released while in the forward motion, the scooter will roll back approximately 30cm before the brake engages. If the throttle control lever is released while in the reverse motion, the scooter will roll back approximately 90cm before the brake engages. Before attempting to sit in or exit the scooter, remove the key to ensure that the power is off and the scooter will not drive. Do not remove the key or shut off while the powered scooter is in motion. Ensure that the seat is properly locked before use. Otherwise the user may fall from the scooter resulting in bodily harm. Attempting unsafe transfers may cause the user to fall, resulting in serious injury. Ensure that the tiller is properly adjusted before driving the scooter. After making any tiller angle adjustment and before use, the tiller must be securely locked into position. Gently push/pull the tiller to ensure that the tiller is securely engaged. Always keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury. Always check hand grips for looseness before using the scooter. If loose and/or worn, replace immediately. Never leave an unoccupied scooter on an incline. When outdoors on wet, soft ground or on gravel surfaces, extra caution must be observed when traversing such surfaces.

3. EMI
This chapter of the manual will provide the user with basic information about the problems with EMI (electromagnetic interference), protective measures can be used to either lessen the possibility of exposure or to minimize the degree of exposure; this section also shows some conditions that unexpected or erratic movements may cause.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (E
MI) FROM RADIO WAVE
SOURCES
Powered 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 powered scooter to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended directions. It can also permanently damage the powered scooter’s control system. The intensity of the interfering EM energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m). Each powered scooter can resist EMI up to a certain intensity level. The higher the immunity level the greater the protection. 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
an immunity level of 20 V/m without any accessories.
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 warning listed below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.
es:
1.
Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitter-receivers with the antenna
mounted
directly on the transmitting unit). Examples include: citizens band (CB) or hand
and
other personal communication devices.
NOTE: Some mobile phones transmit a signal while they are ON but not being used.
◊
Caution
It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible effects of electromagnetic interference on your electric MM-01/02 Scooter
3. Long-range 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 player, and cassette players, and small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, are not likely to cause EMI problems to your powered scooter.
POWERED SCOOTER ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE(EMI)
EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to a 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 scooter’s control system while using these devices; this can affect your scooters movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to prevent possible interference with the control system of a powered scooter.
Despite compliance with all applicable EMC directives and standards, it is possible that the scooter may affect or be affected by other electrical devices that emit electromagnetic fields (e.g. mobile phones, alarm systems at shops, or automatic doors). Meanwhile, the driving performance could be influenced by electromagnetic fields. If you are aware of any such interference, either turn off the other device or turn off your scooter and move it outside the range of the interference.
Warning!
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and mobile phones can affect motorized scooters. Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended brake release or powered scooter movement which could result in serious injuries.
1. Do not operate hand-held transceivers-receivers, such as citizens band (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such as mobile phones, while the powered scooter is turned ON.
2. Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid getting close to them.
3. If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the powered scooter OFF as soon as it is safe.
4. Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the powered scooter, may make it more susceptible to EMI.
5. Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the scooter manufacturer, and note whether there were sources of EMI nearby.

Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police care, fire trucks, ambulances and taxis usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of the device.
