Tip 2: The position where you start is important: First place
the device in a position where you know there is no metal.
Otherwise, the message “ERROR” will appear in the display.
To remedy: Move the device to another position a few
centimetres away and start measuring again.
Tip 3: In the case of complicated applications, e.g. ribbed steel,
scan the surface both horizontally and vertically.
Tip 4: Flexible floor and wall heating pipes which contain
a metal foil and are located near the surface may also be
detected. Test for this function in places where you know the
position of such pipes.
Note: If an object is deep inside a wall, the device may not
indicate it clearly.
