 Read These Instructions Completely
 Do Not Use If Expired
 Make Sure Crystals Are Yellow Before Using The Test
Before You Test
This Is Not a Self Test.You Should Never Test Yourself.
Alcohol impairs judgement. Have someone who has not
been drinking help you conduct the test and read the results.
Please see other side of this pamphlet for important information.
If the test subject cannot wait, have 
subject rinse his/her mouth with water 
before taking the test. This removes 
alcohol vapors in the mouth that could 
cause a false positive result.
Wait 15 Minutes After Last
Alcoholic Drink.
STEP 1
Subject should hold Detector vertically so 
arrows on “BLOW” end are pointing down. 
Subject should then BLOW/EXHALE very 
hard into tube, in one continuous breath, for 
12 seconds. Shake the Detector side-to-side 
to distribute the crystals evenly in Detector 
window. Lay Detector on flat surface and 
WAIT 2 MINUTES.
Hold Vertically So Arrows 
Are Pointing Down and 
Blow for 12 Seconds.
STEP 3
BLOW
Read The Results
•  The color change may be difficult to see under certain 
lighting. For best results, read under lighting such as 
incandescent, fluorescent, or indirect sunlight. A flashlight 
with an incandescent bulb can be used to help read the 
result. Hold the flashlight to the side so that the light does 
not fall directly on the Detector.
•  Compare results to an unused Detector or to the Yellow 
box. If most of the crystals are not GREEN or BLUE (under 
the suggested lighting), then the result is negative.
•  Detector results may not be reliable if testing is not 
conducted according to these instructions.
Positive Results:
 Most of crystals are 
a light AQUA (GREEN/BLUE, BLUE/GREEN) 
cast. This shows that the breath alcohol is 
at or above the level printed on the Detector.
Negative Results:
 Most of the 
crystals, are light YELLOW. This shows 
that the breath alcohol is below the level 
printed on the Detector.
The YELLOW does not have to match the 
unused Detector. It may be much lighter or 
paler YELLOW than an unused Detector.
