TROUBLE SHOOTING
If your detector is not working as it should, follow the suggestions below to
see if you can eliminate the problem.
Problem
Suggestions
The detector displays or
sounds false signals.
You might be sweeping the detector’s
search coil too fast or at the wrong
angle. Sweep the search coil more
slowly and hold the detector correctly.
See “Testing and Using the Detector”
and “Pinpointing a Target ”.
The detector might sound a false signal
if it detects heavily oxidized metals.
Try pinpointing the target from several
different
angles
(see “Pinpointing
a Target ”). If the detector does not
display and sound the same signal each
time, the target is probably heavily
oxidized metal.
The display does not show
the
correct
metal
type when the detector
finds a target.
There might be more than one target in
the area you are searching.
The target might be a type of metal that
the detector does not recognize.
If the target is heavily oxidized, the
detector might not display the correct
metal type. This is not a malfunction.
