2.3 Safety 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:

transmitters.
– In case the vehicle should be set in motion
unintentionally or the brakes are released, switch it

– 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.
