Tips to Receive the Most Accurate Results
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 sensor), drafty, or poorly ventilated
places.
I)
After a test result of 1.000 per mill (per mill = EU setting) / 0.100 % BAC (% BAC = US setting) /
0.500 mg/L (mg/L = UK setting) or higher the sensor needs rest time. In this case wait at least
three minutes before starting the next test.
J)
Do not conduct tests in very cold, very hot, or an unventilated, 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.
Push the battery cover (on the back of the device) downwards (1.A) and open it. Install the
2 batteries (delivered together with the device) in the battery compartment while taking note of
the battery polarity (1.B). Close the battery cover again.

1.B
2.
Insert a mouthpiece into the slot on the front left side of the breathalyzer. Ensure whether it
is securely fitted. It is highly recommended to use a new mouthpiece for every test for sanitary
reasons.
Conducting the Measurement
1.
Press the start button on the front of the breathalyzer for 2 seconds (it is the top button).
The device beeps once and the display briefly shows the alarm limit, date and time set in
the device; in addition, a green and a red light illuminate simultaneously above the display.
„WARMING UP“ then appears on the display and at the same time a line moves from left to right
(the unit is warming up).
2.
At the end of the warm-up phase, the unit beeps twice and „START BLOW“ appears on the
display.
Note:
Press the menu button quickly during the warming up process, or as soon as “START
BLOW‘‘ appears, if you want to check the 10 previous test results with a bar graph, which
enables you to check visually whether your test results are higher than the alarm limit that you
have set in the menu.
