AlcoQuant 6020
Switch-on
Press key for approx. 1 second
The device switches on after one second and automatically performs a self test
of the internal functions and components. During the self test phase the device
version and the software version (Rev x.x0) appear on the display for about 2
seconds. After 3 seconds the device is now ready to start measuring (green LED
blinking at an interval of 1.5 seconds).
Switch-off
Press key for approx. 3 seconds
If no measuring procedure is carried out within 2.5 minutes of the device
becoming ready to operate, the AlcoQuant 6020 switches off automatically.
Tobacco smoke
Tobacco smoke in the expiration air spoils or destroys the measuring system. Hence
it must be ensured that the test person has not been smoking immediately before
measuring is carried out. Waiting time: At least 5 minutes after smoking.
Non residual alcohol in the mouth
Residual alcohol in the mouth distorts the measurement. Hence it must be ensured
that the test person has not consumed any alcohol immediately before measuring is
carried out. Waiting time: At least 15 minutes after the last alcohol was consumed.
Mouth sprays containing alcohol, medical syrups and drops can cause residual
alcohol in the mouth, as can burping and vomiting. Rinsing the mouth with water or
non-alcoholic beverages is no substitute for the waiting time!
Hyperventilation
Prior to measuring the test person should breathe normally and calmly and not
repeatedly breathe in or out deeply (hyperventilation) because the breath alcohol
level can be briefly reduced because the tidal air cools down, thus causing the
measuring result to be distorted.
