This way you receive results that
are as accurate as possible:
a) Wait at least 15 minutes after
your last sip of alcohol. Do not
eat, drink or smoke during that
time.
b) Do not open the casing.
c) Do not keep the breathalyzer
in cold, hot, moist or badly
ventilated places.
d) Keep the breathalyzer out of
the reach of children.
e) Conduct three inlet tests after
long storage before conducting
the actual alcohol test.
f)
Do not drop the breathalyzer.
g)
Change the battery if it is
depleted. Diminished battery
capacity leads to incorrect test
results.
h) Do not conduct tests in loud
(sound waves disrupt the sen-
sor), drafty or poorly ventilated
places.
i)
After a test result of 0.100% BAC
(% BAC = basic setting) or high-
er the sensor needs rest time.
In this case wait at least three
minutes before the next test.
j)
Do not conduct tests in very
cold, very hot or an unventilat-
ed, smoky ambience.
k) Store the breathalyzer in a way
to avoid penetration by dust
or liquids.
l)
Blowing too hard may cause
damage to the sensor as saliva
flows into it.
Preparation for the test:
1. If you use the breathalyzer for
the first time, then push the
battery compartment cover on
the back downwards. Remove
the small paper inside the
battery compartment (this paper
prevents the 2 inserted batteries
from discharging). Close the
battery compartment cover
again. If you change the
batteries please mind their
polarity (+/- pole).
2. a) Put a mouthpiece or a straw
on the mouthpiece connection,
which is on the side of the
device. Make sure it is attached
properly. Use a different mouth-
piece or straw for each test
person. Avoid blowing cigarette
smoke into the tester!
b) If you want to test yourself
without a mouthpiece or straw
push the power button and
as soon as you see “0” on the
display, simply blow directly
towards the mouthpiece con-
nection (blow contantently like
you would whistle).

Operating Manual
Short description:
The ACE Easy Breathalyzer is
a digital semiconductor alcohol
testing device, which can be
operated by only one button
and shows reliable test results
in % BAC (default setting).
The legal limit in the USA is
0.08% BAC (status: Oct 2016).
You can interprete the test
result 1:1 (e.g. the display
shows 0.03 = 0.03% BAC).
To maintain the measurement
accuracy of this breathalyzer
it should be calibrated
regularely. For a calibration
service you can send the
device to ACE Instruments
(see www.ace-instruments.net).
For each breath test a new
mouthpiece is required (to get
a most accurate test result).
