1. To turn your ALCOLIMIT DEFENDER on, depress the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds until the screen turns on. 2. The unit will commence a warm-up process. Purge cycles and circuit tests are taking place during this time. This process generally takes 30 seconds but can last 2 minutes.
Press the ON/OFF button as soon as the Red or Green LED light turns off. The breathalyser will then start the countdown for the next test. To retest, if your AlcoLimit DEFENDER has turned itself off, depress the on/off button, and wait for it to warm up again.

• Not waiting at least 20 minutes after your last alcoholic drink will cause inaccurate readings, and if you continue to misuse ALCOLIMIT this way you will damage the sensor beyond repair (not covered under warranty). Have a glass of water or other non-alcoholic beverage to minimise alcohol vapour in your mouth as the vapour can cause a higher reading.
