INTRODUCTION

Intended Use

This Breath Alcohol Tester is intended to measure alcohol in human breath.

Readings obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication.

The accuracy of this device has been established at a Blood Alcohol Concentration

(BAC) of 0.008 and 0.032. Accuracy at a BAC greater than .032 has not been

established.

Overview

This Tester provides a digital reading of a person's approximate BAC in seconds.

The AlcoHAWK

PT750 is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery that in general

lasts about 200 tests when fully charged. Please read the entire manual before use.

Effects of Alcohol

Variations among people and other factors, such as altitude and air temperature,

affect the degree of intoxication. Some people may become intoxicated at low BAC

levels. A low BAC on a breath alcohol tester does not mean that a person's reaction

times can respond to any emergency encountered. You should not drink alcohol and

drive or use any machinery after consuming alcohol. There is no safe way to drive

under the influence of alcohol. Even one drink can make you unsafe.

Calibration

It is very important to have the instrument calibrated as recommended in this owner's

manual (see Calibration, pg. 13). Failure to do so may result in readings that are

inaccurate.
