EMI
WARNING
ELECTROMAGNETIC
INTERFERENCE (EMI) FROM RADIO
WAVE
SOURCES
Powered
motorized scooters 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, twoway
radios, and cellular 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 up to a certain
intensity. This is called "immunity level". The higher the immunity level,
the greater the protection. At this time, current technology is capable of
achieving at least a 20V\M immunity level, which would provide useful protection
from the more common sources of radiated EMI. This powered scooter's immunity
level as shipped is not known at this time. Testing is currently underway.
There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields
in 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.Handheld portable transceivers
(transmittersreceivers)
with the antenna mounted directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include:
citizens band (CB) radios, "walkie talkie", security, fire, and police
transceivers, cellular telephones, and other personal communication
devices.
**NOTE: Some
cellular telephones and similar devices transmit
signals
while they are ON, even when not being
used.
2.MediumRange 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
vehicle.
3.Longrange transmitters and
transceivers, such as commercial broadcast transmitters (radio and TV broadcast
antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios. "NOTE: Other types of handheld
devices, such as cordless phones, laptop computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets,
CD players, and cassette players, and small appliances, such as electric
shavers and hair dyers, so far as we know, are not likely to cause problems
to your powered scooter.

SCOOTER ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
(EMI)
Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the transmitting antenna (source), the EM fields from handheld radio sources (transceivers) are of special concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high levels of EM energy very close to the powered scooter's control system 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.
WARNINGS
Electromagnetic
interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio
(HAM) transmitter, twoway radios, and cellular phones can affect powered
scooters. The following 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 handheld transceivers (transmittersreceivers), such as citizens
band (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such as cellular
phones, while the powered scooter 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
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 the overall immunity of the powered
scooter).
5.Report all incidents of unintended movement
or brake to the powered scooter manufacturer, and note whether there is a
source of EMI nearby.

SUNRUNNERTM.
It is
easy to locate as it has a red handle lever (See Figure 6A & 6B). To
freewheel the scooter, push down on the lever. To engage
the
brake
again, simply pull the lever up. You will find now that you
are not able to push your
scooter.
If
the scooter is in free wheeling mode, when you turn your scooter
on and depress your speed
control
nothing
happens. It is good practice to return the free wheel lever to
the drive (up) position whenever
it
is
unattended and/or when freewheel is no longer
required.

"Do not
SIT ON THE ..SCOOTER WHILE. IN
FREEWHEEL
MODES."
AntiTip
Wheels:
(See
Figure 613) These wheels are located on the rear frame of the scooter. On
older models the antitip wheels are removable by pulling the pin. On the
new
SUNRUNNER
TM the
antitip wheels are not removable.

MOUNTING
For
your first sessions, be sure you and the
SUNRUNNER TM
are on a level surface. Put the key in its slot,
but leave it turned off. Stand behind the
SUNRUNNER
TM
seat, and
reach down to the
"Seat
Lock Lever".
It is located on the left side directly under the armrest. Grasp
the knob on the bar and pull up, releasing the seat. It will now turn easily
to meet you. If need be, you can lock the seat in any position to make it
steady before you sit down. If you have a cane, place it in the optional
cane rack. Seat yourself and swing the seat to face the handlebars. Make
sure you are straight, then reach under the seat to the bar again with your
left hand. Push the bar down to lock the seat in position. Next, turn the
"Speed Control Dial"
to slow, and turn key to ON position. Press
the right thumb control to start you in a forward motion. To stop simply
let go, this will apply your brake.
DISMOUNTING
Before
dismounting, Always turn key to
OFF position. Locate the seat lever and pull up. Now you can swing the seat
away, lock it, pick up your cane if applicable, and ease onto your feet.
Use your armrests if you require steadying rather than the front tiller when
mounting or dismounting your
SUNRUNNERTM
PARKING IN
PUBLIC
If
you need to park and leave your
SUNRUNNERTM,
simply
remove your key. This will keep the brake on, and will make your scooter
difficult to move. It is best to leave it in sight of someone like a store
clerk who can watch it for you. Another precaution is to note your serial
number (located on the four wheeled scooters on the left hand side of front
frame and on the three wheeled scooters on the left rear of frame) and date
of purchase on your warranty in this
manual.
13
BASIC DRIVING
Make
sure you are properly seated on the
SUNRUNNER
TM
, and that
the
"Speed Control Dial" is
turned
to slow.
Push
the
"Thumb Lever
Control",
as described
earlier. You will very gently accelerate. Release the lever, and you will
gently stop. Practice these two basic functions until you get used to
them.
Steering the
SUNRUNNER
TM
is easy and
logical. Just be sure to remember to give wide clearance when turning so
that the rear wheels clear any
obstacle.
Short
cutting a sidewalk corner can mean the back wheel will go off the sidewalk,
causing problems if the corner is very rough. Again, avoid this at all times
by steering an exaggerated wide arc around the
obstacle.
If
you must steer in a tight spot, such as entering a doorway or when turning
around, stop, turn the handlebars to where you want to go, then apply power
gently. This will make the
SUNRUNNER
TM
turn very
sharp. It will still go gently, and with complete
stability.
Backing
up requires attention. Turn your
"Speed
Control Dial"
to slow
before you back up. Push the left
"Thumb
Lever
Control".
Remember,
when you back up you have to steer in the opposite direction to the way you
want to go.
Remember: If it
is a tight turn, turn your steering column before applying power. Steer wide
of all corners and obstacles.
Going
through doors, with back wheels:
If you're
not moving, your rear wheel is probably caught. Reverse and try again. Take
your time.
14
CONTROL
THROUGH THE TIGHT
SPOTS
Chances are good that when you start really using your
SUNRUNNER
TM
you
will meet some obstacles that will require some practice to drive through
smoothly. Here are some common obstacles, with tips that will help master
them quickly. You will soon be in control through heavy doors, up and down
ramps, up and over curbs, through grass, gravel, and up grades with surprising
ease by following these tips.
IN
CONTROL THROUGH DOORS
Approach an unfamiliar door slowly, sizing it up. Does
it have a knob or push bar? Does it open toward or away? Think in terms of
using the power of the
SUNRUNNER
TM
do the work for you!
Hold the doorknob or bar in one hand and apply the
power with the other hand. If it is a self closing door, you can go through
allowing the door to close behind you, if you go quickly enough. If not,
just stop when you are clear of the door and push it
closed.
If the door opens toward you, hold the knob or bar
with one hand and gently press on your left thumb lever, and allow the gentle
reverse power to do the work. When the door is open wide enough, push the
forward lever and go ahead quickly, leaving your hand on the door to keep
it free of the scooter and letting go as you pass the doorjamb. It is an
easy technique.
IN
CONTROL ON RAMPS
With the ADA (American Disabilities Act) more buildings
require ramps for scooter access. Some have a switchback in the middle, and
good cornering is required.
15
wheels follow a wide arc to stay clear of the corner.
When you have stopped while facing uphill, starting up again simply requires
that you apply forward power.
Going down any ramp or hill, keep the dial set to "Slow".
This will keep you in a safely controlled descent. If you wish to stop
completely, release the thumb control lever
slowly.
IN
CONTROL OVER CURBS
Most curbs have wheelchair access ramps at intersections.
If there is not an access ramp, and you cannot find a driveway ramp either,
you may be able to go over the curb, if it is small enough. The curb must
be under 2" if you have 10"
wheels.
BE
CAREFUL. Going up or down a curb must be done ONLY AT A DIRECT
90 DEGREE ANGLE. Always approach the curb so that both back wheels go over
at the same time, in the same way. Never go up or down hills on an angle.
This can cause stability problems.
Going down a curb is simple, but must be done slowly
to avoid a jarring thump. Slowly drive the front wheel(s) over the curb.
Use as little power as possible.
Going up a curb, turn your speed adjustment dial to
"5". Start 2 to 3 feet back from the curb. Apply power gently, increasing
as needed. Steer straight and go straight up. Be prepared to feel a bump
as each tire reaches and climbs the curb. Again, with a little practice,
you will find this procedure easy to
do.
IN
CONTROL OVER GRASS, GRAVEL AND
GRADES
SUNRUNNERTM
performs
admirably in grass, gravel and on hills.
But you must NOT exceed the parameters
set down in this manual. Please refer to the
Rules For Safe Use. Safety must
come first. If you are unsure about any situation, avoid
it.
Feel free to use your
SUNRUNNER
TM
on
lawns or in park areas. Avoid long, unkempt grass. Otherwise, just follow
the rules.
16
Packed gravel such as on driveways or roads will present
no problem. Loose, deep gravel should be avoided, as well as loosely packed
sand. Because of the power of your
SUNRUNNER
TM
scooter, you are able
to climb steep hills. BUT the maximum safe grade limit is 8° or an incline
of approximately 4 to 1 (see below). The reason for this is to ensure proper
stability. Remember, read and follow the Rules For Safe Use at the front
of this manual.
