e) Conduct three inlet tests after long
storage before conducting the
actual alcohol test.
f) Do not let the ACE III Basic fall.
g) Change batteries after battery alarm.
Diminished battery capacity leads to
incorrect test results.
h) Do not conduct tests in loud (sound
waves disrupt the sensor), draughty
or badly ventilated places.
i) After a test result of 0.100% BAC or
higher the sensor needs a resting
time. In this case wait at least three
minutes before the next test.
j) Do not conduct tests in very cold,
very hot or unventilated, smoky
ambience.
k) Store the ACE III Basic in a way to
avoid penetration by dust or liquids.
Notes to the battery law (BattG)
The device for which this operating
manual is contains two AAA Alkaline
batteries (1.5V, LR03) in delivery con-
dition. Those batteries are not made
for recharging.
Trying to recharge can cause damage
to property or persons. Also the use of
rechargeable batteries is not possible
with this device, because it can cause
damage to the device.
When the batteries are depleted, they
must not be thrown in the household
waste.
For battery exchange only pull off
the battery compartment cover and
change the depleted batteries for new
ones. Mind the polarity: The negatives
poles of the batteries are in contact
with the springs in the battery trough.
Slide the battery compartment cover
over the casing until it snaps in.
All batteries and rechargeable batter-
ies will be recycled. This way, precious
resources like iron, zinc and nickel
are gathered. Battery recycling is the
easiest lesson in environmental.
The garbage bin means: Batteries and
rechargeable batteries must not be
thrown into the household waste. The
signs below the garbage bins stand for:
Hg: Battery contains mercury
Cd: Battery contains cadmium
Pb: Battery contains lead
Calibration
To maintain the accuracy of the
ACE III Basic a calibration of the
integrated sensor is recommended
every 6 – 12 months (1 year at the latest).
The calibration is not mandatory, but
the accuracy of the ACE III Basic will
decrease steadily without it. For a
calibration send the device to Alcohoot
New York, For ACE Instruments Services
(see address details on the back).
We recommend sending it as a parcel,
so that in cases of loss an inquiry or
proof of delivery is possible.
