Dear customer,
the following safety instructions and hazard warnings are intended not only to protect
your health but also to protect the device. Please read the following points carefully:
a) Product
• For safety and licensing reasons (CE), unauthorised conversion and/or modification
of the product is not permitted.
• If you pass the product on to a third party, please hand over these operating instruc-
tions as well.
• Drunkenness gives rise to slow reaction time and adversely affects discernment and
judgement. Therefore, it is a potential risk while driving a motor vehicle or performing
other hazardous activities.
• The alcohol tester measures the alcohol level in the exhaled air. This does not allow
any conclusions to be drawn about the alcohol level in the blood and thus must nev-
er be used to evaluate driving ability or the ability to perform potentially hazardous
activities. Exact information can only be obtained by a blood test.
• The degree of drunkenness at which a person is still able to drive depends on many
factors and also varies from person to person. Furthermore, it depends on body
weight, the last meal, the amount and duration of the alcohol consumption, the gen-
eral physical condition, health and many other factors. Thus, you should not drive
after drinking alcohol consumption nor should you perform any hazardous activity.
The alcohol tester is only intended to give you a rough indication of the alcohol level
in your blood. It must not be used to determine driving ability or the ability to perform
potentially hazardous activities.
• To obtain reliable measurements, the instructions in this manual must be strictly fol-
lowed. However, faulty measurements may also arise due to polluted air or suchlike.
• We shall not accept liability for accidents or damage due to drunkenness.
• Use the alcohol tester only when you are not distracted by important processes such
as the traffic situation and environment.
• The product is not a toy and does not belong in the hands of children. The product
contains small parts and a rechargeable battery. Position the product so it is out of
the reach of children.
• The product must not be exposed to extreme temperatures, dripping or spraying wa-
ter, strong vibrations or heavy mechanical stress.
• Handle the product with care; it can be damaged by impacts, blows, or accidental
falls, even from a low height.
• Do not leave packaging material carelessly lying around, since it could become a
dangerous plaything for children.
• If you have any questions that are not answered in these operating instructions,
please contact our technical support centre or consult a professional.
b) Rechargeable battery
• Keep rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not leave the battery lying around in the open; there is a risk they will be swal-
lowed by children or domestic animals. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• If your skin comes into contact with leaking batteries, you may suffer burns. For this
reason you should use suitable protective gloves in this case.
• Liquids leaking from rechargeable batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects
or surfaces coming into contact with these liquids could be considerably damaged.
Thus, store the rechargeable battery in a suitable location.
• Rechargeable batteries must not be short-circuited, opened or thrown into a fire.
There is a danger of explosion!
• Replace a defect rechargeable battery as soon as possible with a new one, or re-
move the defect battery. A defect rechargeable battery may leak and damage the
device!
• Observe correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the battery.
• Read the chapter "Disposal" for the correct disposal of rechargeable batteries.
Inserting or removing rechargeable batteries
• Open the battery compartment on the back of the alcohol tester, take off the battery compart-
ment lid.
To do this, press the ribbed arrow on the cover and slide it out downwards.
• Insert the rechargeable battery from the scope of supply in the battery compartment. With that,
3 terminals of the rechargeable battery must point towards 3 terminals in the device.
Slide the battery with the terminals first and then shove in also the other end into the battery
compartment.
• Replace the battery compartment cover correctly and push it upwards until it clicks into place.
• To remove a battery proceed in the same way. First pull out upwards the rechargeable battery
and then remove it.
Inserting and removing the mouthpiece
• Plug the mouthpiece from the front in the opening of the alcohol tester.
The mouthpiece must be plugged into the tester with the thin end.
With that, the flattened side has to face upwards and the narrow guide - downwards.
• Slide the mouthpiece until it fits the first shoulder of the tester casing.
• To remove it, simply pull out the mouthpiece forward.
It is absolutely necessary to use a new mouthpiece or clean the mouthpiece thoroughly
before every new test.
Getting started
• Before you start using the device, insert the rechargeable battery and fully charge it first.
For charging, connect the mini-USB plug of the USB cable from the scope of supply to the mi-
ni-USB socket at the bottom of the alcohol tester. Please pay attention to the correct orientation.
Connect the other end of the USB cable to an appropriate USB power source, such as e.g., a
USB charger able to provide min. 500 mA of current.
Switch on the device by pressing the "OK" button on the device (for longer than a second).
As soon as the battery icon bottom right of the displace shows 100%, the rechargeable battery
is fully charged.
• Now insert the mouthpiece as described hereinbefore.
• If you have not already done so, switch on the alcohol tester.
The device switches off automatically after prefixed time, the factory setting is 3 minutes. To
switch off the device manually, press and hold the button to the right for about 3 seconds.
