CAUTION
Recycling of Batteries
Used or broken drive batteries should be taken care of in an environmentally
correct manner in accordance with locally applicable recycling directions.
EMC Requirements
The electronics of an power wheelchair can be affected by external electro-
magnetic fields (for example from mobile telephones). Similarly, the electronics
of the wheelchair itself can also emit electromagnetic fields that can affect the
immediate surroundings (for example certain alarm systems in businesses).
The limit values for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) with respect to power
wheelchairs is set in the harmonized standards for the EU in the Medical
Devices Directive, No. 93/42/EEC.
Permobil's electronic wheelchair's comply with these limit values.
