USER MANUAL
iblowTM is a registered trademark of Sentech Korea Corp.

Introduction
With new Fuel Cell Sensor Technology of Sentech Korea, iblow 10 is designed to high-qulity
professional use to check person’s alcohol concentration fastly & accurately
With iblow10, the alcohol levels of 12 people can be measured per minute and the results
are displayed in numerics and can also indicate zero-low-high levels. The device has
manual sampling function so it is possible to check alcohol level of specific drinks or
unconscious subject .
The blow cap is easily replaced for hygienic use, and the built-in magnets make it attachable
to vehicles when police conduct roadside tests, preventing damage to the equipment. The
LED lighting can also be used in various ways at night.
The user can also adjust the settings directly or connect it to PC software for more detailed
settings. The alarm function also indicates the calibration warning and grace period of
calibration warning, making it much more convenient.

ㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍㆍ
Always use genuine Sentech Korea accessories. Use imitation items for the device may
not give you proper result, or they may damage the device.
Recalibrating the device or modifying the device’s hardware and software from unofficial
sources may damage the device.
Wait at least 20 minutes after eating or drinking before testing. Alcohol remaining in the
mouth, or even excess saliva, may interfere with testing. This includes alcohol-based
mouthwash or similar products, which include any alcohol ingredient.
Avoid testing in high wind or enclosed spaces. Poor ventilation may also lengthen the time
required for warm up between tests.
Do not blow smoke, saliva or other contaminants into the sampling hole, as the sensor may
become damaged.
Hold the device at straight to the subject for accurate results. The others may not give you
correct results.
Poor handling, physical impact, or electrical shock causes most premature device failures.
Do not store the device extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, dirt and dust
Store the device beyond children’s reach.
Any service in regard to the device should be performed by authorized service partners.
Battery safety information
Do not disassemble the batteries!
Only replace with batteries of the same type, never use different types of batteries together
or used batteries with new ones.
Replace al the batteries at the same time!
Keep batteries out of children’s hands!
Do not use manganese batteries!
Do not attempt to recharge Alkaline batteries! There is a risk of explosion!
Do not insert the battery into the opposite electrode (see the diagram on the rearside label)
Please remove all the batteries when not using it for long period!
If it may cause to the leakeage from batteries, please avoid contact with eyes, skin and
mucous membranes! If battery liquid comes in contact with any of these body parts, rinse
the affected region with a sufficient amount of clean water and seek medical attention
immidiately!

*Manual sampling activation: if the subject did not breathe out hard enough, or when
checking the alcohol content of a drink, press the power button once on “go” status for the
manual sampling.
Manual sampling result will be displayed 3 levels as 0.00 (Zero), Lo (Low), Hi (High)
*In numeric result mode, test result could be affected
by sampling distance, angle, flow rate and strength
Unit operation
1. Press the power button
2. 3. If you keep press the power button, “L” and particular number which is the last test
result will be displayed
4. Battery level will be indicated: High or Middle or Low
5. Warming up status
6. “go” means ready to test. Maintain subject to blow cap area 2~3cm and blow steadily into
device’s sampling hole
7. Test result will be displayed in 2 modes: Zero- Low- High or Numeric results
7-1. 7-2. 7-3. 3 levels of test result display: 0.00 (Zero), Lo (Low), Hi (High)
7-A. 7-B. 7-C. Numerical test result display: Approximate numeric result until 1.00g/L
(1.00g/L =0.50mg/L= 0.10%BAC= 100mg/100mL)
* If the result is higher than 1.00g/L, display will shows “HI” without numeric display
