Digital multifunctional finder - 10040
Have you ever drilled into a wall for fear because you didn’t know exactly where the cables were going? With the help
of this multifunctional detector instrument, you can easily detect the presence of metal, wood and power cables in
the wall up to a depth of 10 cm. The detector displays the position of detected substances on a large display. It can be
ideal for renovations, construction sites or even home use.

User’s Guide
For safe use, please read the following instructions and warnings carefully. Please keep this documentation for future
reference and use.
Warnings:
- Do not use the device in an explosive atmosphere, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dusts.
- The device cannot tell the presence of the substance to be detected with 100% accuracy!
- In order to preserve the physical integrity of the building, be sure to check the blueprints and documentation of
the building before drilling and cutting.
- Note that environmental influences (eg humidity) and the proximity of electrical devices can affect the
measurement accuracy.
- The measurement accuracy depends largely on the type of material, moisture content, quality and thickness of the
insulating materials to be measured.
- Please use this guide to find the correct settings while using the machine.
- Do not disassemble or modify the device!
- In the event of a malfunction of the device, contact a specialist garage!
- The manufacturer and distributor are not liable for any damage resulting from improper use of the device!
- Protect the device from moisture, humidity and direct sunlight.
- Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures or temperature changes!
- Do not use the appliance in the event of a significant temperature change! Wait for the device to reach
ambient temperature.
- Wireless devices (Wifi, Bluetooth, UMTS, radio signals, microwaves) communicating at different frequencies and
signal levels can affect the accuracy of the measurement.
- The measuring instrument can only be stored and transported in the enclosed case when not in use!

Assembly
Inserting / replacing the battery:
Use only a 9 V battery or accumulator. Insert the supplied battery. Make sure the polarity is correct. The battery
indicator always shows the current battery status:
1. The battery is fully charged.
2. 2/3 or less of the battery capacity
3. 1/3 or less of the battery capacity
4. Please replace the battery
If you turn on the device but nothing appears on the display, check the battery status. Replace the battery if necessary.
If the device is not used for a long time, the battery must be removed from the device.
Switching on and off
Press the “on / off” button
(3)
to switch on the device
To switch off the device, press the “on / off” button
(3)
again.
If none of the buttons on the measuring tool are pressed for approx. For 5 minutes and no objects are detected, the
device automatically shuts off to conserve battery power.
To turn the beeper on and off, press the wood
(4)
and metal
(5)
softkeys at the same time.
Detection of objects
Move the measuring tool parallel to the detection point
(6)
on the surface without lifting it off the flat surface. The
measurement is only successful and accurate if there is continuous contact with the surface to be tested.
Detection of metal objects
After switching on, press the metal sensor button
(5)
. A steel beam symbol
(f)
will then appear on the display and the
LED above the display will light green.
Place the measuring tool on the surface to be examined and slowly move it sideways. If the measuring tool is close to
a metal object, an acoustic signal sounds and the size of the measuring indicator
(j)
changes on the display. Move the
tool on the surface until you find the center of the detected object. The LED lights up red. As it moves away from the
detected object, the amplitude decreases.
(j)
If the detected metal is non-magnetic (eg copper), the icon on the left side of the display will appear.
(c)
If the detected
metal is magnetic (eg iron), the icon on the left side of the display will appear.
(k)
If the metal is too deep relative to the plane of the surface, the yellow LED will light up.
Note: When searching for metal objects, the detection depth of the object is displayed. The accuracy of the depth value also depends on the shape,
position and size of the detected metal. The size required for accurate detection is a metal object with a diameter / cross-section of at least 20 mm.
The measuring instrument must be calibrated if:
1. The meter automatically enters metal detection mode. If the meter is not near a metal in the environment, but the
buzzer emits a detection tone and the red or yellow LED flashes.
2. In the event of extreme temperatures or temperature changes, the accuracy of the measuring instrument may
change, in which case the measuring instrument must be calibrated.
The calibration method is as follows: Place the meter on a metal-free surface. Press the metal detection button
(5)
for
approx. For 2 seconds, the meter will begin a short self-test. Wait patiently, do not move the device! If the LED is green,
the calibration was successful!
