TIPS TO RECEIVE THE MOST ACCURACTE RESULTS
A) Wait at least 15 minutes after your last sip of alcohol. Do
not eat, drink, or smoke during that time.
B) Do not open the casing.
C) Do not keep the breathalyzer in cold, hot, moist, or badly
ventilated places.
D) Keep the breathalyzer out of the reach of children.
E) Conduct three inlet tests after long storage before
conducting the actual alcohol test.
F) Do not drop the breathalyzer.
G) Change the battery if it is depleted. Diminished battery
capacity leads to incorrect test results.
H) Do not conduct tests in loud (sound waves disrupt the
sensor), drafty, or poorly ventilated places.
I) After a test result of 1.00 per mill (per mill = EU setting) /
0. 1 0% BAC (% BAC = US setting) / 0.50mg/L (mg/L = UK
setting) or higher the sensor needs rest time. In this case
wait at least three minutes before starting the next test.
J) Do not conduct tests in very cold, very hot, or an
unventilated, smoky ambience.
K) Store the breathalyzer in a way to avoid penetration by
dust or liquids.
L) Blowing too hard may cause damage to the sensor as
saliva flows into it.
PREPARATION FOR THE TEST
1. Push the battery cover (on the back of the device)
downwards and open it. Install one (1) AA batterie in the
battery compartment while taking note of the battery
polarity. Close the battery cover again.
2. Insert a mouthpiece into the slot on the right front side of
the breathalyzer. Ensure whether it securely fits or not. It is
highly recommended to use an extra mouthpiece for every
test for sanitary reasons.

CONDUCTING THE MEASUREMENT
With the INNOMARK beta breathalyzer you can conduct
automatic and manual tests.
Automatic test: The easiest way to collect a deep lung
sample. The flow system of the INNOMARK beta monitors a
person`s breath and automatically takes a sample near the
end of the breathy flow.
Manual test: Normally used only if the test person is unable
to conduct an automatic test.
1. For an automatic test push the power button on the front
of the device for 2 seconds, then you hear one beep tone,
additionally a countdown starts and "WAIT" is blinking in the
left bottom corner.
2. Wait until the end of the countdown you hear 1 beep tone
and then you see "rdY" on the display.
3. As soon as you see "rdY" on the display start blowing
steadily into the mouthpiece for 4 seconds, the device will
beep constantly during the test. Tip: Blow like you would
whistle without a tone (but without a break). Note: As soon
as „rdY" is displayed, the device will wait 8 seconds for your
breath sample. If no blow-in is detected, „0.00" is shown on
the display.
4. Keep blowing and only stop when you hear a double
beep beep tone, then the test is successfully finished. If the
breath sample was not sufficient you shortly will hear 2 beep
tones and you will see "C.---" and then „FLo" on the display.
This means the breath sample was not sufficient, so push
the start button and start a new test.
5. After a successful test, the device analyses the breath
sample, you will see „C.---". (= „Calculate") on the display.
After a short while you will hear 2 beeps and the test result
will be displayed (with 4 digits and 3 decimal places) in per
mill (‰ = g/L).
