How to use the Alcohol Breath Test

• The test must be performed at least 15 minutes after last consuming alcohol. Refrain from smoking prior to taking the test.
• Pierce the protective foil by firmly pressing the protective caps inwards on both sides of the alcohol breath test until you feel it “click”.

Take a deep breath and blow into the mouthpiece in the same direction as the arrows on the alcohol breath test. Breath should be blown out twice for approximately 10 seconds each time. Do not interrupt the breathing out cycle. Make sure air is coming out of the other side of the alcohol breath test. If not, go back and repeat all steps from step 2.

Compare the test result with the colour scale chart on the side of the alcohol breath test between 2-4 minutes after performing the test. Do not read the result after 4 minutes.

After use dispose of the alcohol breath test in an appropriate waste container.If the crystals in the inner part of the tube, which were white before commencing the test, show colour, this means that the person who took the test is under the influence of alcohol and should not, under any circumstances, operate or drive vehicles. The approximate blood alcohol content in g/L may be read by comparing the result with the colour chart located on the alcohol breath test. Please note that the colour change in crystals may not be uniform; some white areas may still be visible despite alcohol content being shown.
