4.2 Measurement in passive mode
The passive mode (without mouthpiece) serves to check the ambient air for any alcohol
content it may contain, e.g. for possible presence of alcohol content in the case of patients
who are not responsive.
It is only to check if there is any alcohol in the ambient air. Any values that vary from zero
(0.00) indicate that there is alcohol in the ambient air.
Select the >passive measurement mode< by pressing
the >Passive< key or via the menu.
Place the device which is ready to take measurements
(without mouthpiece) close to the point to be
measured (e.g. in front of the patient’s mouth and
nose) for about 5–10 seconds (s).
Green LED starts to flash.
T
he sampling system should be triggered when the
test subject exhales.
Then trigger the sampling system by briefly pressing the
>OK< key.
The breath sample is taken immediately.
