OVERVIEW
!
This manual contains operating instructions for the use of the
LifeSafer FC100 Ignition Interlock Device (IID) with or without a camera.
Not all jurisdictions require the addition of a camera. If you are not required
to have a camera please disregard any instructions on camera usage.
The purpose of an IID is to prevent vehicle start-up until the user has passed
an alcohol test. The IID is not an indicator of your level of impairment or your
ability to safely operate a vehicle. You must rely on your own judgment.
If you have been drinking alcoholic beverages, please nd an alternative
form of transportation.
This handbook explains the use of the LifeSafer FC100 IID, including
operation, reporting and care of the unit. Please take the time to
read this handbook while you are waiting for the IID to be installed
in your vehicle, so any questions you may have can be answered
before you leave.
Today, you will be trained on the proper use of the LifeSafer FC100 IID.
Your service provider will also conrm the date of your rst service
appointment. At each service appointment the device’s event log will
be downloaded and reported to your Monitoring Authority.
WARNING:
It is your responsibility to keep your IID in good
working order. You will be responsible for any
lost or damaged parts of the unit.
Please call 1-866-614-8276 for details on our
Loss Protection Plan.
LIFESAFER FC100 HANDSET
The LifeSafer FC100 Handset takes your breath sample into the fuel cell
chamber. The presence of alcohol in the sensor chamber causes the fuel cell
to produce an increased electrical current, which is measured and translated
into an equivalent blood alcohol concentration (BAC). You must complete a
breath test when requested and the Device will record your Breath Alcohol
Concentration (BrAC).
STATE CAMERA REQUIREMENT
Some states require the addition of a camera so that the person taking the
test can be identied and submitted to a monitoring authority as part of
the reporting process.
The LifeSafer FC100 Camera takes your picture and will not let you take a test
until it has you and the Handset in focus. The Handset must stay in view of the
Camera at all times as you blow and test, otherwise the device will ABORT and
you will have to start over.
