Paris, France (prHWY.com) February 4, 2012 - Many people try not to miss a single bit of fun on festive occasions and weekends. Quite often they drink galore at the late-night parties, unconsciously drives their cars to home and face accidents. The Government of France has taken initiatives of late to curb this dangerous tendency of people and people who are caught at fault are busted and penalized by the police. The legal limit for drunk-driving in France is known as BAC. If you are caught with 0.5 g or above alcohol/one litre of blood, you are sure to attract fines. On the other hand, it's quite difficult to measure whether you are drunk or not. An Ethylotest is quite necessary in this regard. If you know how to use a breathalyzer for Alcootest, you might refrain from driving when you are excessively drunk and thus could save lives of yours and others. Just check the procedure as stated here below step-by-step to know how to use a Breathalyzer.

Check the certification and expiry date
Before using a breathalyzer product, you must check the certification and the expiry date of the Breathalyzer you bought from a local store or something. If one of these goes wrong, you should discard the ball and opt for a new one. Each breathalyzer kit comprises of a two-tone test tube and a ball.

Make ready the two-tone test tube
The next thing to do is to split the plastic end of the two-tone test tube and break the seal. Many Ethylotest kits need to be pressed at the ends to open.

Empty the whitish crystals
Prior to blowing, it is essential for some kits to remove the whitish crystals for conserving the product. Many kits do not come with this feature and you can inflate the balloon straightaway.

Breathe and blow up
For complete inflation, you need to blow up the balloon with your fullest strength. Completely exhale the air from your lungs for once and use the nozzle valve thereafter to retain the air within the balloon. A single exhalation is sufficient.

Deflate the Balloon
The next part is to deflate the balloon or bag once it is fully ballooned. For this, you need to position the nozzle valve into the hole. Put it in the right direction and use both hands to squeeze the balloon slowly yet steadily and let the air pass into the bag through the tube that comes with every Alcootest kit. Wait for two minutes for the result coming up.

Check the result
Colors work as indicators here. If the crystals become yellow, it means you have passed the test and you can now drive a car. If you notice a green tint, make sure it does not cross the red line because causing the red line indicates your disqualification for driving or you are not in state to drive safely. Always keep in mind that an Ethylotest using a Breathalyzer must be taken after one hour from the last drink taken.
