telephones). Similarly, the electronics of the wheelchair or options
themselves 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 are set in the harmonised standards
for the EU in the Medical Devices Directive, No. 93/42/EEC. The
Adjustable Fused Power Supply complies with these limit values.

manual for a specific action. All other service, alterations to and
interventions on the E-fix 25 interface must be carried out by a
qualified service engineer or someone with adequate knowledge to
perform the adjustment in an expert manner. In case of doubt,
contact a qualified service engineer or mo-Vis.
Use only spare parts or accessories approved or recommended by
mo-Vis. All other use could lead to changes which might impair the
function and safety of the product. It could also lead to the warranty
becoming void.
