OWNER’S MANUAL
The
Pilot is
an easy to
use detector. The most difficult aspects of
metal detecting have been automated.
However if you are new to the hobby, we
strongly recommend that you:
1) Adjust the Sensitivity to a low setting in the
event of false signals.
The detector powers on a
3/4 sensitivity; increase to full sensitivity after you
have become familiar with the detector.
2) Do not use indoors.
This detector is for outdoor use only. Many
household appliances emit electromagnetic energy, which can
interfere with the detector. If conducting an indoor demonstration,
turn the sensitivity down and keep the search coil away from
appliances such as computers, televisions and microwave ovens.
If your detector beeps erratically, turn off appliances and lights.
Also keep the search coil away from objects containing metal, such as
floors and walls.
3)
Read this manual. Most importantly, review the
Quick-Start Demo
(p.6) and
Basic Operation
(p. 8-12)
.
4)
Use 9-volt
ALKALINE
batteries only.
Do not use Heavy Duty or ordinary Zinc-carbon Batteries.
