Your Discovery 1100 Metal Detector is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your
metal detector so you can enjoy it for years to come.
Keep the detector’s chassis dry and do not let water enter it. If the chassis
gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can
corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the detector only in normal temperature
environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the
life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort
or melt plastic parts.
Keep the detector away from dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
Handle the detector gently and carefully. Dropping it
can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause
the detector to work improperly.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.
Old batteries can leak chemicals that damage your
detector’s electronic parts.
Wipe the detector with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean it.
Modify or tampering with the detector’s internal
components can cause a malfunction and might
invalidate it’s warranty.
The searchcoil supplied with the detector is waterproof however, and
may be submerged in either fresh or salt water. After using the searchcoil
in salt water, rinse it with fresh water to prevent corrosion of the metal
parts.
