2.2Safety Information on Electromagnetic Interference

This electric vehicle was successfully tested in accordance with International standards as to its compliance with Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Regulations. However, electromagnetic fields, such as those generated by radio and television transmitters, and cellular phones, can influence the functions of electric vehicles. Also, the electronics used in our vehicles can generate a low level of electromagnetic interference, which however will remain within the tolerance permitted by law. For these reasons we ask you to please observe the following precautions:

WARNING: Danger of malfunction due to electromagnetic interference!

Do not switch on or operate portable transceivers or communication devices (such as radio transceivers or cellular phones) when the vehicle is switched on!

Avoid getting near strong radio and television transmitters!

In case the vehicle should be set in motion unintentionally or the brakes are released, switch it off immediately!

Adding electrical accessories and other components or modifying the vehicle in any way can make it susceptible to electromagnetic interference. Keep in mind that there is no sure way to determine the effect such modifications will have on the overall immunity of the electronic system!

Report all occurrences of unintentional movement of the vehicle, or release of the electric brakes to the manufacturer!
