THE MEASUREMENT. ANY TEST CONDUCTED PRIOR TO THE
EXPIRATION OF THE RECOMMENDED WAITING PERIOD WILL
RESULT IN INACCURATE RESULTS.
IF THE TEST RESULT IS BELOW 0.10‰ (PER MILL) OR 0.050
mg/L (UK setting) OR 0.010% BAC (US setting) THEN THE
DEVICE SHOWS 0.00 (‰ OR mg/L OR % BAC – depending on
the setting) ON THE DISPLAY. THIS HAPPENS BECAUSE AT A
LOW RANGE OF ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION IT IS POSSIBLE
TO MEASURE OTHER MATERIALS IN YOUR MOUTH.
This breathalyzer is a high quality and sensitive measurement
device. To maintain the accuracy of the semiconductor
sensor, it should regularly be used. If the device is not used
for an extended period of time, the sensor can dry out. ACE
Instruments recommends to use the breathalyzer at least 2
times per month (even if you have not been drinking alcohol).
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 for recognizing
discrepancies between the operating manual and the actual
handling of the breathalyzer and must react accordingly.
Only the usage of original ACE mouthpieces
- Guarantees test result accuracy
- Guarantees 100% hygenity
- Guarantees full warranty of this device
ACE INSTRUMENTS ADVISES:
EVEN IF YOU GET A RESULT MEANING „SAFE RANGE", YOU
SHOULD NEVER DRIVE AFTER CONSUMING ALCOHOL OR DO
ANY OTHER ACTIVITIES THAT ARE SEVERELY IMPAIRED BY
ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION AND MIGHT ENDANGER YOUR
HEALTH AND SAFETY OR THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF
OTHERS.

Please contact ACE Instruments

Calibration:
To maintain the accuracy of the breathalyzer, ACE recommends
a calibration after 200 tests or approx. every 6 months
(depending which incident happens first). For a calibration
service you can send the device to ACE Instruments (see
www.ace-instruments.net). The calibration is not mandatory, but
the accuracy of the breathalyzer will decrease steadily without
it. We recommend sending it as a parcel, so that in cases of
loss an inquiry or proof of delivery is possible.
Battery notices:
The device associated with this operating manual contains
2 AA Alkaline batteries (1.5 V) in delivery condition. These
batteries are not made for recharging. The use of rechargeable
batteries is not possible with this device and can damage it. If
the included batteries are depleted, they must not be thrown
into the household waste. Used batteries may contain harmful
substances that can cause environmental or health damage.
Please return all depleted batteries to electrical appliance
stores, who collect them for free.
Battery exchange:
To replace the batteries, push the battery cover at the back
side of the unit downwards and replace the discharged
batteries with two new ones. Be aware of the polarity when
inserting the batteries (+/- pole). Put the battery compartment
cover on the rear panel, push it upwards and press it gently on
the device until it clicks. In the EU the return of used batteries
is mandatory by law. All depleted batteries will be recycled.
This way valuable resources like iron, zinc and nickel can be
retrieved and are reusable then. Battery recycling is the easiest
