3.4 Monthly Service
Each month your vehicle must be taken to a
service centre for servicing and to have the data
downloaded. This takes around 15 minutes.
Booking an appointment is not required.
You have a 5-day window (either side of the day of the month
of your installation date) to get the vehicle in for a service.
For example, if your installation date was on the 6th, you can
take your car for a service from the 1st through to the 11th of
every month that you've got the interlock installed.
3.5 Violations
The Smart Start Interlock records every type of
violation that occurs. The most serious are
alcohol-related violations.
Your interlock will detect even small traces of alcohol because
of its accurate, alcohol-specific fuel cell technology. For
instance, your interlock can tell what your exact breath
alcohol concentration (BrAC) level is, or if the attempted test
was even performed by a human. Violations include:
Tampering with the interlock e.g. disconnecting the
interlock while driving
Failing a test when starting the car because of your breath
alcohol level or alcohol reading while driving
Failing to take a rolling re-test
Starting or attempting to start the vehicle without an
initial breath test
Failing to present the vehicle for two or more consecutive
scheduled services
