Slowly sweep a sample of the material to be detected to find (such as a gold ring or a coin)
2-3 inches or more above the face of the search coil. When the detector detects any metal,
it sounds a tone and the cursor above the target name will light. The LCD also displays the
numeric value of target as well as the depth (signal strength) of it. Please note that the
depth (signal strength) is only a reference, not the exact depth of the target.
Low battery indication
If the unit sounds and vibrates whilst the flashes continuously for about 15 seconds, this
indicates that the battery is low.
Note:
If using a coin, the detector will detect it more easily if it is positioned so a flat side is
parallel with the flat side of the search coil. A sweep with the side of coin over search coil
might cause false indication and unstable display of the target.
Note:
Never test the detector on a floor inside a building. Most buildings have the metal of
some kind in the floor, which might interfere with the objects being tested or mask the
signal completely.
