Fuel cells are highly durable sensors that are capable of providing accurate breath alcohol
results for years. There are, however, a few precautions you should take to make certain
that these devices perform for the longest period of time possible.
Use the device. Fuel cells like moisture, so it is a good idea to take tests periodically to
provide needed moisture to the fuel cell, especially in dry climates. You do not need
alcohol, just breath.
Avoid cigarette smoke! Make certain no one is permitted to blow cigarette smoke into the
unit. This can damage or destroy the fuel cell.
