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 ACE AFM-5 Breathalyzer in cold, hot, moist or
badly ventilated places.
d)
Keep the ACE AFM-5 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 ACE AFM-5 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 ACE AFM-5 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.
