TURNING THE DETECTOR ON

3

QUICK START

4

To turn on the device, press         . You will hear a melody and "

On

" message will be shown on the 

display. Once turned on, the detector is ready for operation and automatically enters the search 

mode. Quick press            to turn off the device.

It is recommended to turn on the 

detector in open terrains, as far away 

as possible from buildings and sources of 

electromagnetic  interference. There  may 

also be disturbance from cell phones, 

motors, TV sets and other household 

electrical appliances. Under these 

conditions the detector may behave 

erratically in the 

An

 mode producing a large 

number of false signals. If you hear an 

overload signal and see "

OL

" displayed on 

the screen, move the detector coil away 

from the source of overload.

Read and study this manual carefully before using the product. Understanding the 

settings and modes features will allow you to use your metal detector in the most 

effective and efficient way possible while searching.

1   Assemble the device according to the instructions given on page 4 (see Section 2).
2   Make sure that the detector coil is far away from metal objects and turn on the device. If you 

hear an overload signal and see "

OL

" on the screen, move the coil away from the source of 

overload.

3   Change the search settings in the Settings Menu and turn on the transmitter if you want to 

use the headphones with the MDLink module.

4   

If first starting out is on the ground, the detector should be ground balanced (see Section 7) 

at a first step before the search begins.

6   After the detector check is complete, turn off the device and the MDLink module.

Take a few different types of metal objects and wave 

them in front of the coil one by one. Learn how the 

detector reacts and responds to different metals, try 

to remember the Target ID values and sounds 

produced by each object - that will help you identify 

buried targets more accurately.
