Measurement in the passive mode serves to check the ambient air for any alcohol content it
may contain.
This does not mean that the precise value of the alcohol level of the breath is sought. It is
only to check if there is any alcohol in the ambient air. Any values that vary from zero (0.00)
are an indication that there is alcohol in the ambient air. The exact level of the alcohol in the
breath must then be ascertained in the active device mode (Section 6).
After selecting the auxiliary function, “Passive measurement mode”, the following content is
shown on the display:

measured and then initiate sample collection by pressing the “Start” key briefly once
