CONDITIONS FOR TESTING
• Use a clean mouthpiece for each test.
• Do not allow samples containing smoke, tobacco or other
chemical products to enter the unit, as damage to the fuel
cell can occur.
• There must be an interval of at least 15 minutes after alcohol
consumption as alcohol residue in the mouth may give a false
reading.
• Such residue may also be left by aromatic drinks,
mouthwash, medicines and drops, as well as by belching
and vomiting. Rinsing your mouth with water or non-alcoholic
drinks does not substitute for an interval.
• A person’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) can continue
to rise for up to 2 hours after drinking alcohol. If a caution
results or a result is close to the designated BAC, it is
recommended to wait and retest after 20 minutes. It can take
10 hours or more for a person’s BAC to return to zero after a
high BAC has been reached.
• A further test should be carried out later in the day or the
following morning.
• Working temperature range: 5°C to 40°C.
Storage temperature: -15°C to 65°C.
LIABILITY FOR PROPER FUNCTION OR DAMAGE
The liability for proper functioning of the instrument is
irrevocably transferred to the owner or operator in the
event the instrument is serviced or repaired by personnel
not employed or authorised by Andatech. In such an
event, the warranty will be void.

DISCLAIMERS
This product must be used strictly in accordance with
the instructions in this manual. This product is intended
to provide the user with an indication of alcohol on the
breath. However, neither the manufacturer nor the supplier
gives any warranty (express or implied) that the product
can give any indication of blood alcohol level. A person's
BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) can only be accurately
measured by the administration of a blood test.
This product only measures breath alcohol content which,
in turn, only gives an approximate indication of blood
alcohol concentration. In these circumstances the user of
this product should not rely on the information provided
thereby as an accurate indication of their blood alcohol
concentration or of their level of intoxication or of their
tness to drive and in particular should not take any action
in reliance on such information as the product can provide
no more than an indication of alcohol on the breath.
If the user of this product makes any decision or takes
any action based on the use of the product such decision
or such action shall be at the sole risk of the user and
neither the manufacturer nor the supplier assumes any
responsibility for such decision or action. In particular,
neither the manufacturer nor the supplier shall be in
any way liable if the user of the product asserts that the
product led them to believe that they were t to operate a
motor vehicle and are subsequently found not to be so t.
