Description of the Ethyway Electronic Ethylotest

The advantages of the Ethyway electronic ethylotest

The ethyway electronic ethylotest is a road safety device that you must equip to test your blood alcohol concentration before driving.

You can trust the ethyway electronic ethylotest. Its effectiveness has been proven by tests carried out in a laboratory recognized by the National Laboratory of Tests.In addition, this device meets the requirements of the standard NFX 20-704 for France, as well as the CE standards.

This breathalyzer is equipped with the same technology used for breathalyzers in law enforcement. Indeed, it works thanks to a blast pressure sensor and an electrochemical sensor.

However, you should be aware that you will not be able to compare the values obtained with those available to law enforcement.

Self-testing is quick and very easy to perform. It allows you to know your blood alcohol level in just 1 minute. You can use it at any time and wherever you are.

Instructions for the use of the ethyway electronic ethylotest

Just follow a few simple steps to achieve self-screening:

1- Position a new mouthpiece on the sensor.

2- Hold down the “test” button. The device lights up and you can release the button.

3- When the screen reads “wait”, wait a few seconds. Then, a count appears (15 to 0 seconds).

4- Once the countdown is complete, you will see the word “Blow” and the letter “C”. You will then have to blow into the mouth sensor until the sound signal stops. This step lasts only about 6 to 8 seconds.

5- The term “wait” appears once again, accompanied by the number “0”.

6- Then you will be able to read your blood alcohol level on the LCD screen. If it is greater than 0.24 mg/l, you will see “HI” appear and hear an alarm that you cannot drive.

The ethyway electronic ethylotest offers you the possibility to view your previous results. To do so, you must press the “Memory” key for the 20 seconds during which the test result you just performed is displayed. If you want to do a self test again, wait 30 seconds after completing the last one.
