4 Things You Need in Your Smart Start Ignition Interlock First-Aid Kit

If you need to use an Ignition Interlock, the program can seem a little confusing at first. Once you practice and take a few breath tests however, you’ll find that using a Smart Start Ignition Interlock is a breeze! That same easy feeling will occur with your program if you have some items with you throughout your Ignition Interlock period.

Let’s go over the four important things you’ll need to ensure a smooth and easy Smart Start Ignition Interlock program.

4 Items to Keep for an Easy Ignition Interlock Program

1. Water Bottle

You may know that some items with alcohol properties can cause a reading from your Ignition Interlock Device. The best way to avoid this hassle is to bring a water bottle with you in your vehicle. Rinse your mouth with water to clear out anything you’ve eaten or ingested before each breath test.

2. Extra Ignition Interlock Mouthpieces

It’s always helpful to have extra Ignition Interlock mouthpieces handy. Some providers may charge you for more mouthpieces, but at Smart Start, we don’t believe in nickel-and-diming our clients! Simply ask your technician at your next service appointment or during your installation for extra mouthpieces.

3. Your Phone

This item may seem a little obvious since phones are at everyone’s hip nowadays! However, having your cell phone will be beneficial during your trips with your Ignition Interlock inside your vehicle so you can give Smart Start a quick call at (800) 831-3299 if needed. Whether it’s 2 p.m. or 2 a.m., our Customer Care Center is available any time if you have any questions or need assistance.

4. Your Paperwork and Receipts

Make sure to keep any of your Smart Start paperwork handy from your service center. Your receipts are helpful to keep around not only for reference, but because it also lists your next service appointment date and time. It’s also a good idea to keep any relevant paperwork that was provided to you by Smart Start, your DMV office and/or your court so you can reference them, too.

That’s all there is to it if you want to experience an easier Ignition Interlock program! As always, our Customer Care Center is here to assist you at (800) 831-3299 from installation to removal.
