Lifeloc FC10

Fuel Cells

Fuel cells are highly durable sensors that are capable of providing accurate breath alcohol
results for years. There are, however, a few precautions you should take to make certain
that these devices perform for the longest period of time possible.
Use the device. Fuel cells like moisture, so it is a good idea to take tests periodically
to provide needed moisture to the fuel cell, especially in dry climates. You do not need
alcohol, just breath.
Avoid cigarette smoke! Make certain no one is permitted to blow cigarette smoke into
the unit. This can damage or destroy the fuel cell.

Cleaning

Use of a mild disinfectant cleaner and a soft cloth on the outside of the case is
recommended periodically to keep your unit clean. Do not use alcohol to clean the unit.

details.
