Locating a break in a cable

The method used here is similar to that used above.
To pinpoint the location of the break in a cable, adjust the sensitivity 
regulator to a suitable level. If the acoustic and light signals are interrupted, 
you have found the location of the break.

Checking whether the outer metal
cladding of an electrical appliance is
connected to an earth cable 

1.  Set the selector switch to “II” (do not open the metal sensor).
2.  Turn the sensitivity regulator as far as the stop to  

set the maximum sensitivity. 

3.  Move the AC detection area on the device close to an electrical appliance 

such as a microwave, a kettle, a heater or a washing machine. The LED 
lamp and the buzzer will sound if the electrical appliance is not connected 
to an earth cable. 

Polarity test

Caution: 

Ensure that there are no AC or high-voltage networks in the 

vicinity.

Testing battery polarity

1.  Turn the metal sensor between 90 and 180 degrees. Set the selector 

switch to “II”.

2.  Use one thumb to touch the metal plate. With your other thumb, touch 

an electrode on the battery while at the same time ensuring that the 
raised metal button on the device touches the other electrode on the 
battery. 

3.  The LED lamp and the buzzer will activate if the positive terminal touches 

the raised metal plate.

Note: 

To avoid interference, you should not stand close to electromagnetic 

fields.

Continuity test for light bulbs and fuses

This function allows you to check the correct working of light bulbs and 
fuses.

Testing fuses

1.  Turn the metal sensor between 90 and 180 degrees. Set the selector 

switch to “II”.

2.  Use one thumb to touch the metal plate. Touch a conductive side of the 

fuse with one finger on your free hand while at the same time ensuring 
that the other conductive side of the fuse touches the raised metal 
button. If the LED lamp and the buzzer activate, the fuse is working 
properly. 

Testing light bulbs

The method used to test fuses can also be used to  
test light bulbs. If the LED lamp and the buzzer issue  
a signal, the light bulb is working properly.

Detecting electromagnetic radiation

1.  Set the selector switch to “II”. Turn the sensitivity regulator as far as the 

stop to set the maximum sensitivity. 

2.  Move the AC detection area of the device close to the TV/computer 

screen. The buzzer will sound and the LED lamp will light up if the device 
detects radiation. 

3.  Move the device away from the screen. 

The buzzer and lamp will switch off at the point where the radiation is no 
longer strong.

Light function 

Set the selector switch to “OFF”. Press the button for the light. The LED 
lamp turns on.

Replacing the battery

If the device no longer works correctly (e. g. abnormal sounds), you should 
replace the battery. To replace the battery, slide the battery compartment 
cover outwards and replace the empty battery with a new one of the same 
type (9 V compound, e. g. 6LR61). Close the battery compartment cover 
again.
