INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the ALERT™ J5 – a breath
alcohol tester (BAT) that measures the alcohol level in
human breath. Based on your jurisdiction, your ALERT J5
comes with preset levels that indicate whether the alcohol
breath test result is a fail (red LED light), warning (amber
LED light) or pass (green LED light).
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Take the following precautions to ensure smooth and
uninterrupted use of your device:
• Use the product for its intended purpose only
• Use AA Alkaline batteries only
• Do not store in extreme heat or cold and avoid
exposing the device to direct sunlight for extended
periods of time
• Do not blow smoke or any uids into the mouthpiece,
as these can damage the sensor
• Do not open the BAT case. Doing so will void the
warranty and may also damage the components within
• Keep all magnets and transmitting devices (such as
mobile phones) away from the BAT to minimize RF
interference
• If you spill any liquid on the ALERT J5, remove all
excess uid with a cloth and allow the device to dry
thoroughly before attempting to power on. Do not
power on in case of excessive water damage

WARRANTY
All ACS products are warranted to be free of defects in
workmanship and materials for a period of one year from
the date of shipment. ACS agrees to replace or repair any
defective device, provided the defect was not caused by
misuse or mishandling.
The ALERT J5 being returned for warranty repairs
must be properly packaged and shipped prepaid to an
authorized service provider.
MAINTENANCE
ALERT J5 requires periodic maintenance and calibration.
After testing and calibrating at the factory, ALERT J5 is
deactivated so it can be stored without losing any clock
time from the calibration period. You need to activate it to
start using it (see the “Activating” section). Once activated,
ALERT J5 automatically increments the date for the next
calibration by 365 days from the date of activation.
NOTE: ALERT J5 is calibrated for optimal performance at
the point of shipment.
