Wheeltech Monte Carlo Electric Scooter Page 6of 6Owner’s Handbook (Part Code: Z40969)
This portion of the content will provide the user with basic information that describes the problems with
EMI, known sources of EMI, protective measures either to lessen the possibility or exposure or to minimize
the degree of exposure, and suggested action should unexpected or erratic movement occur.
Attention:It is very important that you read this information regarding the possible effects of
electromagnetic interference on your Monte Carlo Scooter
2.4.1 ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI) FROM RADIO
WAVE SOURCES
Powered scooter 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 mobile 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. This
is called its “immunity 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 EMI. This powered scooter model as shipped, with
no further modification, has an immunity level of 20 V/m without any accessories.
There are a number of sources of relativel
y intense electromagnetic fields in 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.
The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types:
1. Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitter-receivers with the antenna mounted directly on the
transmitting unit). Examples include: citizens band (CB) radios, “walkie talkies”, security, fire, and
police transceivers, mobile telephones and other personal communication devices.
Attention:
Some mobile telephones and similar devices transmit signalswhile they are ON, even when not being
used.
2. Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks, ambulances and
taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of the powerchair .
3. Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as commercial broadcast transmitters(radio and TV
broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.
Attention: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, so far as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to your powered scooter.

Wheeltech Monte Carlo Electric Scooter Page 7of 7Owner’s Handbook (Part Code: Z40969)
2.4.2 POWERED SCOOTER ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
(EMI)
Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the 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 control system of powerchair while using
these devices. This can affect powered scooter movement and braking. Therefore, the warnings listed
below are recommended to prevent possible interference with the control system of the powered scooter.
2.4.3 WARNINGS
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio (HAM)
transmitters, two-way radios, and mobile phones can affect powered scooters. Following the warnings listed
below should reduce the chance of unintended brake release or powered scooter movement which could
result in serious injury.
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 powerchair is turned
ON;
2. Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid coming 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 ( Note: There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the overall immunity
of the powered scooter ).
5. Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the powered scooter manufacturer,
and note whether there is a source of EMI nearby,
2.4.4 IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1. 20 Volts per Metre (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immunity level against EMI (the
higher the level, the greater the protection);
2. This product has an immunity level of 20 V/m without any accessories connected to it.

the speed setting and turn the dial anticlockwise to decrease the speed setting.
§Moving and Braking
§Push the right-hand side of the wigwag paddle forwards with your right thumb and the scooter will move
forward.
§Push the left-hand side of the wigwag paddle forward with your left thumb and the scooter will move
backward, emitting an audible reversing alarm.
§To brake, release the wigwag paddle which will return to neutral and activate the electromagnetic brake
automatically. This will bring the scooter to a prompt stop.
§The wigwag paddle allows you to control the speed of the scooter up to a maximum speed determined by
the Speed Dial. The further the wigwag paddle is deflected, the faster the scooter will go.
§Horn Button
§Press the horn button to sound the horn. Release the button to stop the horn
§Braking
§Electromagnetic brake: Release the wigwag paddle completely, and the electromagnetic brake will be
activated automatically, and the scooter will stop.
NWarning
When on a gradient NEVER set the vehicle to the freewheel mode. The electromagnetic brakeswill not be
applied. This may result in injury or damage.
§Seat
§The seat can be rotated and locked in position at 45°intervals.
§Push the seat adjustment lever forward and swivel the seat.
§Release the lever, and then continue swivelling the seat until it locks in position.
FAttention

Wheeltech Monte Carlo Electric Scooter Page 10of 10 Owner’s Handbook (Part Code: Z40969)
§Battery Indicator
§Th
e battery indicator on the tiller console uses a color code to
indicate the approximate power remaining in your batteries.
Green indicates (40-100%)
capacity, yellow a draining charge
(10-30%)
, and red indicates that an immediate recharge is
necessary.
§The remaining range suggested by the
battery indicator will vary
by the actual driving time incurred and how you drive. R
epeated
starting, stopping, climbing will consume the power more
quickly.
&Suggestion
1. You should recharge the batteries after each time the vehicle is used to ensure maximum range. The
batteries should be charged up at least once a week even if the scooter is not used.
2. After charging or replacing a new battery, drive the vehicle for 2-3 minutes to make sure the battery
capacity is sufficient.
3. In wintertime, the battery may respond more slowly and the battery range may be reduced.
4. When driving on agradient, the battery indicator gauge may fluctuate. This is a normal phenomenon so
please do not worry.
5. Even if the battery is used properly, it is natural for the battery’s capacity to reduce with time, which
resultsin reduced battery range compared to a brand new battery. Therefore, when you find the battery’s
range is about only 50% of the range when the batteries were new, it is time to replace the batteries.
Please see your dealer about replacement batteries. If you continue to use the old battery when it should
be replaced, it could lead to a rapid decline in performance.
6. The battery range will be reduced when driving frequently on a slope or rough terrain, as this leads to
greater consumption of power.
7. The batteries have a twelve-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. This warranty does not
cover faults due to incorrect battery recharging.
