any terrain, but misuse or lack of due attention will tell in the end. After using your detector in a hostile
environment (salt water, sand, etc.) the exterior parts should be flushed with clean fresh water, paying
particular attention to clean all mating and moving surfaces of sand or silt which, if left, can have severe
detrimental effects on the durability of your CS7 detector. The use of solvents or detergents should be
avoided.
Particular attention should be paid to the ‘O’ ring seals. After each use a check should be made to
ensure no water has entered the control box. This is easily achieved by careful observation through the
clear cover. If any ingress is found, the covers should be removed, cleaned and dried. The ‘O’ rings
should be replaced if necessary – contact C-Scope Customer Service.
If the ‘O’ ring seals are not effective then a temporary seal may be achieved with a light, even smear of
silicon sealant on the mating faces. However, extreme care must be taken not to damage the
smoothness of the faces when removing the covers.
Routinely check the search head fixing screws for tightness - carefully tighten if any looseness develops.
LIMITATION OF WARRANTY
Salt water, in particular, can cause extensive corrosion in a relatively short time so it is very important
not to allow salt water to remain in any of the compartments. Damage to the mating surfaces can lead to
further damage internally and can not unfortunately be covered by our warranty.
DETECTOR NOT OPERATING?
(a) Check the condition of batteries under load using the indicator. (See Battery Check Procedure).
(b) Interchange batteries and ensure connections are correct and secure. Battery life can vary
tremendously between makes, therefore your 'new' batteries may already be insufficiently
powerful to run the detector.
Oscillating Signal Accompanied By Flashing Target Indicator
(a) This could be due to poor battery connections. Ensure that they are tight and the batteries are
securely clipped into place.
(b) Interference from a vehicle using a radio transmitter or possibly a stationary source of
electromagnetic radiation - if this occurs then change the FREQUENCY setting. If the problem
persists then the best remedy is to wait until the transmission stops.
Intermittent Sound From Headphones
(a) This could be due to poor battery connections. Ensure that they are tight and the batteries are
securely clipped into place.
(b) Radio interference (see above).
