INTRODUCTION

Your  Ranger  Body  Scanner/Metal  Detector  is  ideal  for  use  at  airports, 

industrial sites, government buildings, schools, hospitals, meetings, athletic 

events, or anywhere you need added security without undue inconvenience 

to anyone entering the area. It's sensitive enough to detect metal objects 

the size of a 25-cent piece, so you can use it for special applications, such 

as locating a listening device in a room. The Body Scanner sounds a high-

pitched tone whenever it detects metal–a longer tone for larger objects, and 

a shorter one for smaller objects.

You can use a rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery for power, and recharge 

it in the Body Scanner.

Its features include:

Red LED Indicator 

lights when the Body Scanner detects metal.

De-Sense Button 

reduces the Body Scanner's sensitivity to metal by about 

50  percent,  so  you  can  scan  near  floors  which  contain  large  amounts  of 

steel reinforcement, or only scan for larger objects.

Earphone Jack 

lets you connect an optional earphone to the security 

wand so you can scan in privacy.
