Mark X

User Manual

Please read this manual carefully before using Alcovisor® Mark X.

Alcovisor® Mark X uses an electrochemical fuel cell to detect and measure the

concentration of alcohol vapor in expired breath.

Although the Alcovisor® Mark X is extremely simple to operate, it is important that the

following procedure is used each time a breath is given. Deviation from the proper

procedure will not generally affect the result of a test.

However, the integrity and

capability of an operator, and even the legality of any resulting action, could be questioned

and brought into doubt if it is found later that the operator did not follow the proper testing

procedure.

PRETEST QUESTIONING

Some foods and even "non-alcoholic" drinks may contain traces of alcohol, which will

affect the test result through a "mouth alcohol" effect. To prevent this, wherever possible,

insure that a delay of about 20 minutes has elapsed since taking anything by mouth –

even medicines which may contain alcohol. Even a glass of water prior to the test will

cool the mouth and dilute the saliva, temporarily reducing the amount of alcohol in the

breath, and, consequently, the instrument reading.

A delay of at least two minutes

should take place between the time of last smoked and the test.
