INTRODUCTION

To get the most enjoyment from your Metal Detector, we suggest
you do the following:

1.

Use 9-volt 

ALKALINE 

batteries only.

• Do not use Heavy Duty batteries.
• Do not use ordinary Zinc-Carbon Batteries.

2.

Use your detector 

OUTDOORS 

only.

• Large metal objects inside the home may interfere

with the detector’s operation.  Floors and walls of
most homes contain metal.

• Electrical appliances inside the home, like

microwave ovens, televisions, and some light
fixtures, emit electromagnetic energy which can
interfere with the detector’s operation.

• Do not place coins on the floor of your home and

try to detect.
Try this test outside only.

• If conducting an indoor demonstration, hold

searchcoil off ground and wave coins over
searchcoil.
