Page 5: Caution
Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) can rise for up to two hours after your last drink. Users of the Guardian WR3 interlock are advised that care should be taken if a BAC reading close to their designated BAC lockout level is indicated.
Page 6: Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions 4.1 General The WR3 is designed to prevent a driver operating the vehicle if there is alcohol present, and a BAC of 0.02%BAC or above is recorded. The WR3 displays information to the operator by an LCD screen, tones and colours displayed on the handset connector where the handset plugs in.
Page 7 Blow into the mouthpiece with moderate and constant force while simultaneously making a “Hum” sound. When the correct technique is used, the WR3 will generate a continuous tone to indicate adequate air flow. Do not stop blowing until you hear a beep from the Handset.
Page 8: Failed Test
4.3 Failed Test A fail will be followed by a “Lock Out” message on the display followed by the BAC reading recorded. The vehicle cannot be started and the driver will be prevented from attempting another test for at least 5 minutes (countdown will appear on the LCD screen).
Page 9: Stall Protect Feature
Stall Protect Feature If the motor is turned OFF for a short time, you can restart it within three minutes without taking another breath test. This is a safety feature called “Stall Protect” which allows you to quickly restart the motor if it stalls. Attempt to start the vehicle by using the ignition key.
Page 10: Retests
Retests The system will require retests on a random time basis as long as the vehicle remains in operation. The display will indicate “Retest” and a double beep will sound. The first retest will occur 3 to 10 minutes from starting the vehicle.
Page 11: Failed Retest
Observe the message displayed on the Handset. If “Drive Safely” is displayed and the status light is solid green, you passed the breath test. The driver should not leave the vehicle while the retest request indication is active because a program violation could result. Once the retest has been successfully completed, you may continue on your way.
Page 12: Retests Not Taken
An “Immediate Recall 1” will be triggered where 1 failed retest is recorded, see section 25. Messages Displayed for further details. The interlock will need to be serviced at the participant’s expense. NOTE: Do not attempt another breath test until you are sure your alcohol level is below the fail limit.
