The result is an estimate of the subject's BAC. A breath alcohol tester

cannot determine the exact BAC in the blood of the subject. Correlation

between BrAC and BAC depends on many factors, such as temperature

and health conditions. Only use this device to screen for the presence

of alcohol.

Many people consider a 0.02% or greater a positive test for alcohol in

"zero tolerance" screening. Most states have 0.08% as the legal BAC

limit for tasks such as operating a motor vehicle. Some states prohibit

driving commercial vehicles or any vessel with a 0.04% BAC or higher.

Many states prosecute individuals for driving under the influence at any

level.

Error Message

READ THE RESULTS

Cause and Course of Action

There has been an error with the sensor. This can occur

if the test subject does not wait at least 20 minutes after

smoking, eating or drinking before using the unit or if

the unit has not been used for an extended period of

time. Press the Power On/Off button once to turn off the

unit and repeat operation steps 1 – 5. If this message is

displayed four or more consecutive times, the unit may

need to be serviced.

Repeat the test because the unit did not detect an even

alcohol concentration in the breath sample. This can oc-

cur if the user varies the blowing force when performing a

test or if the exhaust port is obstructed. Repeat operation

steps 1 – 5 to perform another test.

The unit detected a very high alcohol concentration

(above 0.40% BAC).

Low Battery. Install two (2) new AA batteries.

The sensor has sustained damage; please contact Q3

Innovations for further support.
