OPERATION
Operating Instructions
Wait 20 minutes after the subject smokes, eats or drinks before
testing. Failure to wait 20 minutes can give inaccurate BAC read-
ings and harm the sensor.
Step 1) Insert a NEW MOUTHPIECE each time you perform a test.
Step 2) If it has been more than 24 hours since the device was last
used, PRIME THE SENSOR by blowing into the mouthpiece
for 4 to 5 seconds before turning on the device.
Step 3) PRESS the Power On/Off button. A single beep will sound and
a green lamp will light below the PWR sign on the LED display.
A yellow lamp will blink below the RDY sign on the LED display.
Step 4) WAIT until the YELLOW LAMP STOPS BLINKING and
remains on, and you hear a SINGLE BEEP. The device is now
ready for use.
Note: The device will not shut off until a test is performed or until 15
seconds of non use ends.
Step 5) Take a DEEP BREATH AND BLOW STEADILY (for at least 5
seconds) until a BEEP sounds to signal completion of the test-
ing.
Note: The unit will display a 0.000 after approximately 1 – 2 seconds if
a trace level of alcohol is not detected in the breath sample (i.e., at least
0.001% BAC).
