Important notices
e To ensure accurate measurement results it is necessary to perform so-called auto-cleaning if you have not used the device
for longer than 2 weeks (especially before first use). Start the auto-cleaning process by removing the batteries and rein-
serting them and turning on the device. The indicator “AUTO CLEANING” will start to flash. The auto-cleaning process
takes approximately 5 minutes and there will be a countdown on the display during this time. In the last minute of the
auto cleaning a sound will be made. The device will automatically turns itself off after 1 minute and the auto-cleaning
process will be completed. Check that no residual alcohol has remained inside the device before performing a test.
Pressing the ON /OFF button will end the automatic cleaning process.
After 4 repeated tests let the device rest for 2 minutes.
If the message “Err” flashes on the display for longer than 5 seconds, it may indicate incorrect handling:
You did not press and hold the BLOW button during the test.
If you do not start the test within 8 seconds of the “READY” indicator appearing.
If you will not be using the device store it in a dry place.
If the low battery condition indicator light starts flashing, the measurement is not accurate and it is necessary to replace
the batteries without delay.
If the difference between two subsequent measurements is greater than 0.1 %o, you must repeat the measurement.
e To ensure that the measurement is accurate, check that there are no alcohol remains in the device. Wait until LOW is
shown on the display. Display this information by pressing the START button again. Hold down BLOW and allow fresh
air to be sucked into the opening. If necessary you can remove alcohol remains by carefully shaking the device.
