AlcoSense Lite User Manual

WARNING: AlcoSense Lite is a sensitive measurement device. Performing a
breath test less than 10 minutes after drinking risks blowing high levels of
alcohol directly from your mouth into the system which could permanently
damage the sensor and cause the system to read inaccurately. For best results
wait at least 30 minutes after drinking or smoking before performing a breath
test. Do not blow directly into the blow hole without a blow tube – this can
damage the sensor and significantly reduce the lifetime of your unit.
