Note: 

As the backlight consumes more power, it

’s better to turn off 

it in light places. 

 

5.  MEMORY 

The detector will memorize all the settings before power is off. 

 

OPERATION 

1.  TURNING ON THE DETECTOR 

Rotate volume control away from OFF to power on the detector. 

After about 2 seconds the detector enters into stand-by state. At this 

time the default mode is DISC. LCD displays DISC of 00 and SENS 

of 6 bars. 

   

2.  TESTING AND USING THE DETECTOR 

To learn how the detector reacts to different metals, you should test it 

before you use it the first time. You can test the detector indoors and   

outdoors. 

 

INDOOR TESTING AND USE 

1.  Rotate the volume control away from OFF to power on the detector. 

2.  Setting the operating mode: 

(1)  DISC: Press MENU to select DISC, then + or 

– to set the DISC 

numeric value. If the DISC value is set to 00, the detector can 

detect all kinds of metal. In this case, when the detector finds a 

target

 or silver object. If you don

’t want to 

find  the  target  listed  on  the  LCD,  you  can  set  the  relative 

numeric  range  of  DISC  by  pressing  DISC  then  +  or  -.  For 

example,  the  numeric  target  range  for  5

¢

  is  11-20,  you  can 

simply  press  MENUS  to  select  DISC,  then  set  the  DISC 

number to 21 by pr or -. In this case, the numeric range 

is beyond 5
