Operating Instruction 

4.1

 

Providing a breath sample 

Perform a breath test in accordance with the following procedures: 

a.

 

Ensure the instrument is ready to take a sample. This is indicated with a 
welcome screen and instructions on how to provide a breath sample. There 
may be a specific customer welcome screen. 

b.

 

Take a straw from the straw holder. 

c.

 

Place straw in the sample port. 

 

 

NOTE 

Food or drink must not be consumed for the 10 minutes prior to testing. 

The BAC can continue to rise for up to two hours after the cessation of drinking, care should be 

taken if a result close to the designated BAC limit is indicated. 

It can take 10 hours or more for the BAC level to return to zero after a high BAC level has been 

reached, in such cases further tests should be carried out later in  

the day or the following morning. 

CAUTION 

Never inject fluids into the sample port. This could render the instrument inaccurate for 

subsequent tests or temporarily disable it and may void any instrument warranty
