Mark V

User Manual

Please read this manual carefully before using Alcovisor® Mark V.

Alcovisor® Mark V uses an electrochemical fuel cell to detect and measure the
concentration of alcohol vapor in expired breath.

Although the Alcovisor® Mark V is extremely simple to operate, it is important that the
following procedure is used each time a breath is given. Deviation from the proper
procedure will not generally affect the result of a test. However, the integrity and
capability of an operator, and even the legality of any resulting action, could be questioned
and brought into doubt if it is found later that the operator did not follow the proper testing
procedure.

PRETEST QUESTIONING
Some foods and even “non-alcoholic” drinks may contain traces of alcohol, which will
affect the test result through a “mouth alcohol” effect. To prevent this, wherever possible,
insure that a delay of about 20 minutes has elapsed since taking anything by mouth –
even medicines which may contain alcohol. Even a glass of water prior to the test will
cool the mouth and dilute the saliva, temporarily reducing the amount of alcohol in the
breath, and, consequently, the instrument reading. A delay of at least two minutes
should take place between the time of last smoked and the test.
