The BACTRACK® S75 Pro Breathalyzer is a professional alcohol  
screening device, used for the detection of alcohol in the  
breath. The BaCTraCK provides a digital result, indicating the  
approximate BaC (Blood alcohol Content) of the test subject.  
The BaCTraCK is powered by two aa batteries and is very  
easy to use. simply turn on the unit and begin testing in a matter  
of seconds. However, before you begin testing, there are a few  
things you should know. Please take a moment to read your  
owners manual in its entirety and familiarize yourself with  
the BaCTraCK.  
This device is intended to measure  
alcohol in human breath. Measurements  
obtained by this device are used in the  
diagnosis of alcohol intoxication.

Alcohol and Its Effects on the Human Body  
alcohol is absorbed from the mouth, throat, stomach and  
intestines into the bloodstream.  
alcohol ingested by the human body can be detected in the  
breath because of its presence in the bloodstream.  
alcohol cannot be digested, and it cannot be chemically  
changed in the bloodstream. as the blood flows through the  
lungs, alcohol in the bloodstream moves across the membranes  
of the lung’s air sacs (alveoli) into the air. The concentration of  
the alcohol in the alveolar air is directly related to the concentra-  
tion of the alcohol in the blood. as the alveolar air is exhaled, the  
alcohol in it can be detected by the breath alcohol testing device.

The alcohol concentration in the breath is related to that in the  
blood, and because of this, an individuals BaC can be deter-  
mined by measuring alcohol in the breath. The ratio of breath  
alcohol to blood alcohol is generally estimated to be 2,100:1.  
Therefore, 2,100 milliliters (ml) of alveolar air will contain ap-  
proximately the same amount of alcohol as 1 ml of blood.  
some vision impairments that occur when you have been  
drinking include:  
narrowing of your eld of vision  
reduction in your depth perception  
Decreased ability to see in darkness  
Increased sensitivity to glare and a longer time  
for your eyes to readjust from the glare  
Alcohol is a Drug  
some mental (brain) impairment can occur when you have  
been drinking, including:  
alcohol is the chemical (ethanol or ethyl alcohol) resulting from  
the fermentation of grapes or grain. alcohol is absorbed directly  
into your bloodstream. From your bloodstream, the uids in your  
body tissues absorb the alcohol. Your brain is made up of a  
large concentration of fluids and will absorb a large amount of  
any alcohol you drink. Your liver eliminates the absorbed alcohol  
at its own rate of time and nothing you eat or drink can speed up  
the process. Your liver does this by oxidizing the alcohol (convert-  
ing it into water and carbon dioxide). Coffee, food or any other  
“curewill not sober you up. Only time will do that.  
reduced awareness of danger  
Becoming overly confident and reckless  
Difficulty in making decisions  
reduction in balance  
slowed reexes  
Impaired judgment  
How does alcohol affect my driving?  
we can’t emphasize enough how dangerous it is for you to  
drink and drive. Your vision and your brain are the most impor-  
tant factors in driving safely. If you jeopardize either by drinking,  
and then you drive, you are likely to be involved in a serious or  
fatal collision.  
How does alcohol affect my body?  
alcohol is a depressant. It has a relaxing effect on the muscles in  
your body. The muscles of your eyes relax and lose focus. Your  
eyesight will become fuzzy and you may experience double  
vision. Brain activity is slowed. Your judgment, reexes, and  
coordination are all negatively affected.

VerIfICaTIOn and CalIbraTIOn  
preCauTIOns  
1. wait at least 20 minutes after drinking, eating or smoking before  
testing. not observing this waiting period can cause inaccurate  
readings and damage the sensor.  
The BaCTraCK is calibrated during manufacture using ad-  
vanced alcohol simulation equipment. Known alcohol concentra-  
tions are passed through the sensor to set baseline values for  
testing. During testing, the unit compares users’ breath samples  
to these baseline values.  
2. Do not blow smoke, food, or liquids into the BaCTraCK as this  
will damage the sensor.  
3. Do not test in areas with strong winds, smoke, or in an area  
where a large amount of alcohol is being consumed.  
The accuracy of breath alcohol testers can uctuate after six to  
twelve months of normal use, depending on the number of tests  
performed and operating conditions.  
4. replace the two aa batteries when the battery indicator icon  
reaches one bar.  
If this product is providing inconsistent test results, is not provid-  
ing any test results, or provides unusually high or low test results,  
the product should be recalibrated immediately by a trained  
professional.  
5. send your tester in for periodic calibration service as required.  
(see calibration).  
6. The BaCTraCK Breathalyzer is designed to be used in a tempera-  
ture range of 32-104 °F (0-40 °C).  
The product should be recalibrated at least every six to twelve  
months. If the product is used every day, it may need to be  
recalibrated as frequently as every month.  
7. avoid testing in the presence of any substances that contain  
methyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol or acetone. These substances  
may interfere with the results of the test.  
Calibration Instructions  
8. You cannot use the results of this product in court.  
Please visit www.bactrack.com or call 877-334-6876 for  
information on how to get your BaCTraCK Breathalyzer  
recalibrated.  
9. Do not use the BaCTraCK as a tool to determine whether you  
should operate a motor vehicle or equipment, or perform any  
other dangerous act.  
10. Do not drink and drive. always have a designated driver when  
alcohol is being consumed.  
During recalibration, a professional technician will reset the  
sensor baseline values and also perform a full diagnostic check  
to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the product.

test subject is intoxicated under any denition of that word. KHn  
solutions expressly disclaims any liability for direct, indirect, in-  
cidental, special, or consequential damages of any nature under  
any legal theory. any act or failure to act based on a reading  
from this product shall be at the test subject’s or users own risk.  
KHn solutions assumes no responsibility for consequences to  
or of test subjects who use this product and later are shown to  
have been under the inuence of alcohol or to have had their  
judgment or any mental or bodily function impaired by alcohol.  
Correlation between breath alcohol content and blood alcohol  
concentration depends on many variables, including environ-  
mental factors (such as air quality, wind, humidity, temperature,  
etc.) and health conditions of the test subject. a low BaC reading  
does not mean that the test subject’s physical or mental perfor-  
mance or judgment (including reaction times) can respond to an  
emergency. The concentration of alcohol in the blood of a test  
subject cannot be exactly determined by using a breath alcohol  
screening product.
