1. Wait at least 20 minutes after drinking, eating or smoking
before testing. Not observing this waiting period can
cause inaccurate readings and damage the sensor.
2. Do not blow smoke, food, or liquids into the BACtrack
as this will damage the sensor.
3. Do not test in areas with strong winds, smoke, or in an
area where a large amount of alcohol is being consumed.
4. Send your tester in for periodic calibration service as
required.(See calibration).
5. The BACtrack Breathalyzer is designed to be used in a
temperature range of 50-104 degrees F (10-40 degrees C).
6. Avoid testing in the presence of any substances that
contain methyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol or acetone.
These substances may interfere with the results of the test.
7. You cannot use the results of this product in court.
8. Do not use the BACtrack as a tool to determine whether
you should operate a motor vehicle or equipment, or
perform any other dangerous act.
9. Do not drink and drive. Always have a designated
driver when alcohol is being consumed.
PRECAUTIONS VERIFICATION AND CALIBRATION
13
14
The BACtrack is calibrated during manufacture using advanced
alcohol simulation equipment. Known alcohol concentrations
are passed through the sensor to set baseline values for testing.
During testing, the unit compares users’ breath samples to these
baseline values.
The accuracy of breath alcohol testers can fluctuate after six
to twelve months of normal use, depending on the number of
tests performed and operating conditions.
If this product is providing inconsistent test results, is not
providing any test results, or provides unusually high or low test
results, the product should be recalibrated immediately by a
trained professional.
The product should be recalibrated at least every six to twelve
months. If the product is used every day, it may need to be
recalibrated as frequently as every month.
Calibration Instructions
Please visit www.bactrack.com or call 415-693-9756 for
information on how to get your BACtrack Breathalyzer
recalibrated.
During recalibration, a professional technician will reset the
sensor baseline values and also perform a full diagnostic check
to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the product.
