and other objects, at least 15cm away from the tool.
• The detected edges may be wider than the actual stud edges
• Never attempt to open the battery for any reason.

2.1 Power on
You can turn the device on and off by pushing the button.

2.3. Device Calibration
The device must be calibrated to the characteristics of the body
(wall, floor, ceiling):
- prior to the start of each search
- regularly during a search process (after every 60 seconds).
This is required again after 60 seconds, in order to reduce the
occurrence of measurement errors.
1. Hold device against the surface (selection location whether
the object
searched for is very unlikely to be found).
2. Press the calibration button (found on the left side of the
delive) and make sure not to move the device. The
icon will
flash on the display when the calibration is in progress. When
the
icon stops flashing it gives 3 short beeping tones and
the device is successfully calibrated. Press any key to exit cal-
ibration.
Note:
f you calibrate too closely to the object or directly on the wood,
the calibration can fail. If the calibration fails, the display shows
the following symbol
and a long beeping tone sounds.
Please switch the device off and on again in order to start the
calibration again. Move and hold the device several cm fur-
ther to the right or left of the previous surface and recalibrate.
2.4 Scanning
Stud and deep scan
After calibration has been finished, slowly
slide the unit across the wall in a horizontal
direction. Make sure not to tilt or lift the tool.
As you begin to approach
a stud, the sequential
levels on the LCD will
increase, and peck at the
stud edge. Mark this spot
to indicate stud edge.
Continue the scanning
beyond the marked spot
until the peak level dis-
appears then slide the
unit in reverse direction
to locate the other edge
of stud .Mark this second
spot. Center of stud is the
middle between the two
marks.
