Breath sampling with the funnel

4.7.1 Taking a breath sample
CAUTION
Hygiene
► Do not touch the upper part of the funnel.
► Always maintain a distance of 2–3 cm from the subject or
object to be tested.
► Do not touch excretions, surfaces or a subject's skin with
the funnel.
► Avoid direct contact with substances to be tested.
► Replace contaminated funnels.
CAUTION
Incorrect measurement results
If multiple samples are taken over a short period of time, there
is a risk of condensation building up inside the funnel and
entering the device.
► Replace the funnel if condensation or drops are visible.
Before taking the breath sample, ensure that the correct
measuring mode has been selected.
1. Remove the funnel from its packaging.
2. Hold the funnel using the grip areas on the sides and
attach it firmly to the top of the device (it can only point in
one direction).
3. Ask the subject to blow evenly and without interruption
into the funnel without touching it.
 A continuous tone signals a sufficient flow of air.
 While the sample is being taken, an animated circular
progress bar that also indicates progress as a
percentage value is displayed (see B and C in Figure 2
on the fold-out page).
 If sampling was successful, the tone ends with a clear,
audible click.
 The display shows a spinning progress bar during an
ongoing analysis process.
 The result is displayed after a few seconds and stored
by the device.
