Understanding
the
Results
For
many
years,
the
legal
standard
for
drunkenness
across
the
United
States
was
0.10,
but
many
states
have
now
adopted
the
0.08
standard.
The
federal
government
has
pushed
states
to
lower
the
legal
limit.
The
American
Medical
Association
says
that
a
person
can
become
impaired
when
the
blood
alcohol
level
hits
0.05.
You
should
never
drive
an
automobile
when
you
are
impaired
by
alcohol,
drugs,
or lack
of
proper
rest.
Precautions
1.
You
should
wait
20
minutes
after
eating
or
drinking
before
testing.
Any
alcohol
remaining
in
the
mouth
or saliva
takes
this
long
to
disperse
and
will
interfere
with
the
reading.
2.
Avoid
testing
in
a strong
wind
or in
a
closed
room
with
dirty
air.
3. When
the
"BATT
LOW"
LED
is on,
replace
9V
alkaline
battery.
4.
Do
not
blow
smoke
or
liquid
into
the
unit.
It will
damage
the
sensor.
Wait
1
minute
after
smoking
before
a
test.
5.
Although
CA2000
analyzes
alcohol
level
accurately,
do
not
use
it
as a
tool
to
drink
and
drive.
6.
Store
the
unit
between
32-104
(
0
F)
and
out
of
the
reach
of
children.
7. Do
not
leave
CA
2000
car
adaptor
hooked
up
to
cigar
jack.
8.
In
normal
use,
CA
2000
requires
calibration
every
12
months
to
obtain
accurate
results.
Discuss
with
local
distributors
for
calibration.
Troubleshooting
Replace
the
battery
if
the
BATT
LOW
lamp
comes
on.
Refer
other

the
warranty.
Cleaning
Instructions
For
sanitation
reasons,
replace
plastic
mouthpiece
if another
person
is
going
to
use
the
unit.
You
may
wish
to
clean
the
unit
with
a damp
cloth.
Do
not
submerge
in water.
This
will
void
the
warrantee.
No
routine
maintenance
other
than
yearly
calibration
is
required.
