TROUBLESHOOTING
If your detector is not working as it should, follow the suggestions below to see
if you can eliminate the problem. If you cannot, take the detector to your local
store for assistance.
Problem
Suggested solution
The detector emits false signals or
tones.
You are moving the search plate too
fast or at the wrong angle. Try to
move the seeker slower and parallel
to the ground.
If objects are heavily rusted,
sometimes a wrong signal is sent. Try
aiming at the target from a different
angle. If the device emits different
signals and sounds each time, it may
be heavily rusted metal.
The display shows the wrong metal
type when the detector finds a
target.
There is more than one metal object
underground.
The object is made of a metal that
the detector will not detect.
If the object is heavily rusted, the
type of metal may not be detected
correctly. However, this is not a
malfunction.
