READ CAREFULLY BEFORE ASSEMBLY / OPERATION OF THE DETECTOR

      LEGAL DISCLAIMERS

Comply with applicable laws and regulations governing use of metal detectors while using 

this detector. Do not use the detector without authorization in protected or archeological 

sites. Do not use this detector around unexploded ordnance or in restricted military zones 

without authorization. Notify appropriate authorities with details of any historical or 

culturally significant artifacts you find.

       PRECAUTIONS

► 

Au GOLD FINDER

 is a state-of-the-art electronic metal detector. Please read the User 

Manual before you assemble or operate the metal detector.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not store the detector and search coil under extremely low and high 

temperatures for extended periods. 

► 

Detector is IP54 compliant. Do not immerse the detector (except for the search coil) in 

water. 

 

► 

Protect the detector against impacts during normal use. For shipping, carefully place 

detector in original carton and secure with shock resistant packaging.

WARNING

Au GOLD FINDER

 metal detector may only be disassembled and repaired by 

Nokta

 

Authorized Service Centers. Unauthorized disassembly / intrusion into the metal detector 

control housing for any reason voids the warranty.
