time, the device may draw down your battery, to avoid this unplug the Handset, this will minimize the current draw.
3.3. Warm Up
The Determinator must warm to operating temperature before a sample is requested. Bringing a unit indoors in
a cold climate will reduce the required warm up time. The message displayed while heating shows 0% to
100% completion.
3.4 Camera
Effective July 1, 2018 Arizona State Law requires the use of Cameras with all approved Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Devices. This camera is
usually mounted on your windshield. State Law states that any attempt to block or obscure the camera will be considered a violation, and can be
considered grounds for extension, and or cancelation of your driving permit. Additionally the device can detect tampering of the camera as well,
and if obstructed or significantly moved may prevent your vehicle from starting. This type of tampering may require additional fees for a mobile
technician to come and repair your unit. With that in mind be cautious of how you treat the device and camera, while providing a test, and while
driving. Be sure nothing is obstructing the view of the camera.
Obstruction or any attempt to circumvent the normal operation of the camera is considered a violation of Arizona State law, and can
be punishable by extension of your IID requirement, or suspension of your driving privilege
.
3.5. Provide Sample : Blow/Suck/Blow (BSB)
The Determinator requests a breath sample at turn-on and at random intervals while you drive.
•
Do not provide a sample until requested
•
Two beeps are sounded for attention before “Please Provide Sample” is seen/heard.
•
Breath in deeply to fill lungs.
•
Provide the sample in three steps:
o
STEP #1: Blow: short, sharp, pulse of air until you hear a beep.
o
STEP #2: Suck: short, sharp, pulse of air until you hear a beep.
o
STEP #3: Blow: long, continuous stream of air to empty the lungs. Keep the pressure above/below
the min/max set points. Three tones may be heard:
▪
Low tone : blow harder
▪
Medium tone : try to maintain this
▪
High tone : blow softer
•
When the tone stops, stop blowing, sample is complete. Wait for the voice prompt to start the vehicle. DO
NOT attempt to start the vehicle until instructed to do so, attempting a start before being prompted may result in a violation.
