3. Operating Instructi***
A> Battery Installation:
A-1 Remove the cover of battery compartment at the back of device.
A-2 Insert 2 “AAA” alkaline batteries according to correct polarity, then close battery compartment cover.
B> Start:Press power button at least 2 seconds, with a short beep tone, backlit lights lit and display 0018 (or other value) that represents the tested times so far, press button less 3 seconds to display the test value of last time.
C> Blow:Display the moving value “0” and “blow”, please blow continuously for 3 seconds via mouthpiece. The device can automatically detect along with beep sounds when blowing, and display “----” that shows data analysis is in processing after blowing. It will automatically power off if no blowing action taken place in 2 minutes.
D> Result display:Several seconds later data analysis finished, the displayed value is the concentration of alcohol.
E> Re-measure: Press button again for the next test.
F> Power off:
F-1 After finishing the test or during the test, hold down the button at least 2 seconds to turn off the device.
F-2 If forgetting to turn off the device after finishing the test, the device will automatically turn off after 1 minute.
F-3 When the device displays current test times and last test result, hold down the button at least 2 seconds, it will be a alert of wrong operating(This error will not cause equipment damage). Stop pressing the button immediately, device will automatically return to normal status.
4. Notes
4.1 Prevent the device fall from a height or by severe vibration;
4.2 If measurement is operated under lacking pressure symbol appeared, the measured value may be a slight deviation from the actual value.
4.3 In order to reflect the blood alcohol concentration in truth, please test 10 minutes later after drinking.
4.4 The device shall not be stored or used under the environment contains corrosive gas (such as chlorine).
