Due to changes in the product, the
procedures stated can change. This
can take place without prior notice or
adaptation of the operating manual
and is no cause for complaint, return or
price reduction. The user is responsible
to recognise deviations between the
operating manual and the actual han-
dling of the ACE III Basic and he has to
react accordingly.
Preparation for the test
1. Install 2 pieces of AAA Alkaline
batteries (1.5V, LR03) in the battery
compartment. Remove the battery
compartment cover at the back of
the device carefully and insert the
2 pieces of AAA batteries. Mind the
battery polarity in the process (+/-).
2. For the active mode operation put
a mouthpiece on the mouthpiece
connection, which is on the side of
the device. Make sure it is attached
properly. Use a different mouthpiece
for each test person. Avoid blowing
cigarette smoke into the tester!

TION OF THE RECOMMENDED WAITING
PERIOD WILL RESULT IN INACCURATE
RESULTS.
If the test result is below 0.007% BAC
(= 0.07‰ or 0.035 mg/l) then the
device shows 0.000% BAC (= 0.00‰ or
0.00 mg/l) on the display. This happens
because at a low range of alcohol
concentration, there is a possibility to
measure other material in your mouth.
