Interlock Device Tips Reminder

 

 

• Do not eat during or 15 minutes prior to taking a breath sample.

• Do not leave your car unattended while it is running or the key is turned over.

• Keep the device out of direct sunlight for long periods of time.

• Do not attempt to circumvent the device, it is illegal.

• Do not tear, cut, mutilate, bang or tamper with device; do not let the device cords and wires get wet.

• Be sure to notify us PRIOR to taking your vehicle in for any maintenance work, towing, battery changes, or jumps done to your vehicle during business hours of 9:00 am-5:00 pm, Monday-Friday. Any receipts for work done on your vehicle must be faxed to: 972-929-6765, Attention: Reporting Dept.

• If you fail a test, the device will have a 1-3 minute countdown for a retest. You must continue to provide a new breath sample until you pass.

• Do not disconnect your device. You may remove the mouthpiece to clean it with hot water ONLY. Make sure the mouthpiece is completely dry before reinserting back into the device. Please call our main office at 248-994-3000 if you need to purchase another mouthpiece at your next appointment or have one mailed to you.

• If you miss or fail a test, we would suggest you take a PBT or EtG test. Documentation must be faxed to Draeger Reporting prior to next service appointment.

• Avoid using or storing anything in your vehicle that contains alcohol or ethanol ingredients, which may include some of the following common items: hand sanitizer, mouthwash, Windex (glass cleaner), perfume, cologne, gasoline containers, air freshener, etc.

*If you fail or miss a retest, pull over and turn the vehicle off if possible. This will allow the device to complete its temporary lockout and for you to take another test.Call the Reporting Department at 855-888-2509 immediately to notify them of the incident*
