Important: When you have eaten,
drunken alcohol or smoked a cigarette,
wait at least 20 minutes before starting
the measurement. ACE Technik warns:
Even if you get a result with the me-
aning „Safe range", you should not
drive after having consumed alcohol
or do any other activities which are
badly affected by the consumption of
alcohol.
Usage of personal mouthpiece:
If you push the hook aside like shown
on the right, you can use your personal
mouthpiece.
Flow
The breath sample was not strong
enough for measurement. After warming
automatically, please blow strong and
steady during sampling.
bAt
The battery power is low. Please
replace the batteries.
CAL
If you test over 1,000 tests, ACE Neo will
display "CAL" sign for 3 seconds when
warming up for test. This "CAL" sign will
be provided the appropriate time for ca-
libration. Please send the device to ACE
Technik for a calibration service.
Out
The device is turning off („Out" is shown
during approx. 5 seconds on the display,
then the device switches itself off
automatically). OUT also appears if you
don`t use the device during approx. 30
seconds or if you press continuously the
start button for approx. 3 seconds.
P
The device is in passive mode. „P"
appears on the display if you turn on
the device and push the start button
afterwards again. The passive mode can
be used when a person is too drunk to
do a test by using a mouthpiece.
As soon as „P" appears on the display,
the test person must briefly exhale in the
direction where normally the mouthpiece
is inserted and at the same time you
have to push the start button perma-
nently for a few seconds until you hear a
„tictac tone". Now the device evaluates
the test and afterwards you can see
either „P" or „F" in the display.
P = Pass (person is not drunken)
F = Fail (person is drunken and must
not drive)
Default values (not changeable):
P < 0,20 per mille and
F > = 0,20 per mille

well as the casing or the sensor without sampling
components. Components that are inevitably
destroyed upon effectiveness (such as fuses)
are not part of this warranty. The warranty is

this is not stated otherwise in the accompanying
literature of the product by ACE Handels- und
Entwicklungs GmbH. Limitation of warranty
and liability:
Product description: The ACE Handels- und
Entwicklungs GmbH rejects any further expressly
stated or implied warranty, including the marke-
tability and suitability for a determined purpose.
This warranty especially excludes calibration.
After changing the sensor, calibration is absolu-
tely necessary. When an exchange of the sensor
or a calibration is necessary for a product, the
user may receive a estimate of costs. Should the
user refuse the estimate, the ACE Handels- und
Entwicklungs GmbH will send the product back
unrepaired / uncalibrated and the product will be
labelled accordingly.
