4.6.4 Low-volume breath sample (optional)
If the subject cannot provide the required minimum volume of breath,
a sample with a low volume can be taken. To take a breath sample
with a low volume, this option must be activated in the device menu.
When a breath sample is taken, the device checks whether this option
is activated. When the option is active, the device may take an early
breath sample and display Low volume next to the result.

4.7.1 Taking a breath sample
CAUTION
Hygiene
► Do not touch the upper part of the funnel.
► Always maintain a distance of 2–3 cm from the subject or object to
be tested.
► Do not touch excretions, surfaces or a subject's skin with the
funnel.
► Avoid direct contact with substances to be tested.
► Replace contaminated funnels.
CAUTION
Incorrect measurement results
If multiple samples are taken over a short period of time, there is a risk
of condensation building up inside the funnel and entering the device.
► Replace the funnel if condensation or drops are visible.
Before taking the breath sample, ensure that the correct measuring
mode has been selected.
1. Remove the funnel from its packaging.
2. Hold the funnel using the grip areas on the sides and attach it
firmly to the top of the device (it can only point in one direction).
