Ace NEO Bedienungsanleitung Seite 5

This way you receive a result as
accurately 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 Neo in cold, hot,
moist or badly ventilated places.
d) Keep the ACE Neo out of the reach of
children.
e) Conduct three inlet tests after long
storage before conducting the actual
alcohol test.
f) Do not let the ACE Neo fall.
g) Change batteries after battery alarm.
Diminished battery capacity leads to
incorrect test results.
h) Do not conduct tests in loud (sound
waves disrupt the sensor), draughty or
badly ventilated places.
i) After a test result of 1.00 per mille or
higher the sensor needs a resting time.
In this case wait at least three minutes
before the next test.
j) Do not conduct tests in very cold, very
hot or unventilated, smoky ambience.
k) Avoid blowing cigarette smoke into
the device!
l) Store the ACE Neo in a way which
avoids penetration by dust or liquids.
Notes to the battery law (BattG):
The device for which this operating
manual is contains two AAA alkaline
batteries (1.5 V) in delivery condition.
Those batteries are not made for
recharging. Trying to recharge can cause
damage to property or persons. Also
the use of rechargeable batteries is not
possible with this device, because it
can cause damage to the device. When
the batteries are depleted, they must
not be thrown in the household waste.
Used batteries may contain harmful
substances that can cause damage to
the environment or health. Please return
batteries / rechargeable batteries to the
store or to the buyback centre. The re-
turn is free of charge und mandatory by
law. Please throw only depleted batteries
into the containers and tape over the
poles of lithium batteries. For battery
exchange only pull off the battery com-
partment cover and change the depleted
batteries for new ones. Mind the polarity:
The negatives poles of the batteries are
in contact with the springs in the battery
trough. Slide the battery compartment
cover over the casing until it snaps in.
All batteries and rechargeable batteries
will be recycled. This way, precious
resources like iron, zinc and nickel are
gathered. Battery recycling is the easiest
lesson in environmental.
The garbage bin means: Batteries and
rechargeable batteries must not be
thrown into the household waste. The
signs below the garbage bins stand for:
Hg: Battery contains mercury
g
Cd: Battery contains cadmium
g
Pb: Battery contains lead

Calibration:
To maintain the accuracy of the ACE
Neo, we recommend a calibration after
12 months at the latest. The calibration
is not mandatory; the accuracy of ACE
Neo will decrease steadily without it,
though. Send the device with the note
`Alkomat calibration service´ to the com-
pany address stated on the invoice you
received with the device. We recommend
sending it as a parcel, so that in cases
of loss an inquiry or proof of delivery is
possible. Due to changes in the product,
the procedures stated can change.
This can take place without prior notice
or adaptation of the operating manual
and is no cause for complaint, return or
price reduction. The user is responsible
to recognise deviations between the
operating manual and the actual hand-
ling of the ACE Neo and he has to react
accordingly.
Preparation for the test:
1. Install 2 pieces of AAA batteries (alka-
line, 1.5 V) in the battery compartment.
Remove the battery compartment cover
at the back
of the device carefully and insert the 2
pieces of AAA batteries. Mind the battery
polarity in the process (+/-).
2. Put a mouthpiece on the mouthpiece
connection, which is on the side of the
device. Make sure it is
attached properly. Use a different
mouthpiece for each test person. You
yourself can always use your personal
mouthpiece which is fix integrated in
the device.
ACE Technik recommends:
Always use a new mouthpiece for
g
each person and each test which is
conducted not by yourself (you can use
your integrated personal mouthpiece).
ACE Technik assumes no liability for
any damages which arise when several
people use the same mouthpiece for
multiple tests.
Each other test person than yourself
g
should use the hygienic mouthpieces
from the ACE series! During each test
the ACE Neo internal and external gets
in contact with human secretion (saliva,
blood, sweat etc.)!
Use safety gloves when pulling out a
g
mouthpiece which was used by another
person than yourself! You can buy appro-
priate gloves at ACE Technik.
Conducting the
measurement:
1. Press the power button.
2. The device warms up until you can
see the sign "0".
3. Blow through the mouthpiece into the
unit for 4 seconds until the sounds
(a "tictac" tone) concludes.
4. The result is displayed for 10 seconds,
afterwards the device automatically
turns off.
If you want to test again, press the
power button after the back light has
turned off.
If you keep press and hold the
power switch, you can see "C" and
shortly afterwards "A" on the LCD. "C"
shows the total number of all done tests.
"A" only shows the number of tests with
a measurement of more than 0.2 per
mille. The counting of "C" and "A" starts
again with "0" after a calibration service.
