adjust  the  volume  to  a  comfortable  level.Do  not  listen  at  extremely  high  volume  levels. 

Extended high volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.Once you set the volume, 

do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does 

not cause      discomfort might still damage your hearing. 

 

Traffic Safety 

Do not wear earphones while operating your detector near high-traffic areas. 

Even  though  some  earphones  are  designed  to  let  you  hear  some  outside  sounds  when 

listening at normal volume levels, they still can present a traffic hazard. 

FUNCTIONS AND INDICATORS 

1. A QUICK LOOK AT THE DETECTOR                         

 

a. DISC—Rotate the control clockwise away from  ALL METAL to get DISC mode.  The DISC 

mode comes with auto ground balance. Rotate the control slowly and clockwise to eliminate 

different trash objects. 

    Rotate the control counter clockwise to the end to get ALL METAL   

    mode. All METAL also comes with auto ground balance. It’s used to   

    find not only ferrous metal, but also non-ferrous one (see more details   

    below). 

b. SENS—Rotate the control counter clockwise to the end to power off   

    the unit. 

    Rotate the control clockwise to power on the unit. Continue rotating it   

    clockwise to get higher sensitivity. 

c. VOLUME—Rotate the control clockwise to get higher level or to get   

    lower volume level by rotating it counter clockwise. 

d. LOW BAT—Low battery indicator. When LOW BAT indicator lights,   

    user should replace the batteries at once. 

f. EAR—It’s a 3.5mm headphone jack for connecting headphones. 

g. View meter—When unit finds any metal target , the meter pointer   

    swings to the right.
