ALCOCHECK: CALIBRATION GUIDE –AUGUST 22,2010
PROCEDURE STEPS
1. To calibrate, press and hold the
power button for 10 seconds.
If the green light goes on, it
means that the batteries have
sufficient life left.
If the yellow light turns on, the
batteries are low.
If the red light turns on, it means
the batteries need to be replaced.
2. Count the number of times one of
the LEDs flashes.
Once it stops flashing, press the
power button the same number
of times.
The yellow light will indicate that
the unit has been put into
calibration mode.
3. Put the mouthpiece of the 20%
simulator right up to the sensor
inlet.
Press the power button for it to
take a sample.
A green light indicates that the
calibration was successful.
A red light indicates that the
calibration failed.
Hold for 10 seconds
Yellow indicates
calibration mode
Press same number as
LED flashes

4. For calibration verification test,
connect the unit to the 20%
simulator again.
The green light will flash on and
off indicating that it is ready for
the verification test.
Press the power button to start
the test.
5. After a short period of time, the
lights will flash in a sequence to
show what BAC it calculated.
A flash from the red light means
100, from the yellow means 10,
and from the green means 1.
For example, if the yellow light
flashes 1 time, and the green light
flashes 7 times, it means it
calculated a BAC of 17 (10 + 7).
6. For the last BAC test (with 10, 40,
and 60 solution), use the shown
setup.
For 10: light should be green.
For 40: light should be yellow.
For 60: light should be red.
If the 40 mg% gives a green light
or the 60 mg% gives a yellow
light, move the AlcoCheck closer
up to the source and retest to get
yellow/red.
