BATTERY & DEPTH INDICATORS
The LOW BATT indicator will flash as
the unit is powered on. If the indicator
comes on and stays on, replace the
batteries.
DEPTH INDICATOR:
The Depth Indicator is accurate for
coin-sized objects. It indicates the
depth of the target, in inches. Large
and irregularly-shaped objects will
yield less reliable depth readings
When passing over an object, the
depth indicator will light up and stay
illuminated until another object is
scanned. Pass repeatedly over the
suspected target and pause briefly at
the end of each sweep to read your
display. Repeated indication at the
same depth level indicates an accurate
target detector. If the depth indication
varies with each sweep, try sweeping
at different angles; there may be more
than one target present. With practice,
you will learn the difference between
accurate readings, multiple targets,
and highly erratic readings which
evidence trash or irregularly shaped
objects.

MODES OF OPERATION
the metallic spectrum, but still detect
items to the left of the scale, as
follows:
NOTCH is most useful to “notch out”
specific unwanted items. If you
encounter certain bothersome trash
items, program their rejection into
your detector as follows:
1) Turn the Disc/Notch knob 100%
counterclockwise.
2) Pass the undesirable object under
the search coil.
3) Turn the Disc/Notch knob slowly
clockwise until the object is no
longer detected.
Use the NOTCH mode for coin-shooting,
jewelry hunting, or for your own
customized hunt.
AUTO NOTCH MODE
To enter the AUTO NOTCH mode,
press the Auto Notch touch pad. In
AUTO NOTCH mode, iron, most pull
tabs, and screw caps are
automatically eliminated.
In addition, you can turn the Disc/Notch
control to selectively eliminate more
items beyond the pre-programmed
ones. The Disc/Notch control operates
in this mode in the same manner as
outlined in the NOTCH mode
instructions, except that AUTO NOTCH
does not eliminate the more valuable
nickels.
Use AUTO NOTCH for press-and-go
treasure hunting in applications like
coin-shooting, and jewelry hunting.

SELECTIVELY “NOTCH OUT” THESE
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and
having a maximum gain of 3 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a
gain greater than 3 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The
required antenna impedance is 102 ohms.
10COIL, 4COIL, 8COIL, 8COIL-7, 8COIL-7BLK, 8COIL-CAMO, 8COIL-UM
The following statement is not relevant to metal detectors but is printed here to
satisfy legal notification requirement:
“To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.”
