OWNER’S MANUAL

If you do not have prior
experience with a metal

detector, we strongly recommend
that you:

1) Adjust the Sensitivity to a low

setting in the event of false signals.

Always begin use at a reduced sensitivity
level; 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 searchcoil away from appliances such as computers,
televisions and microwave ovens.  If your detector beeps
erratically, turn off appliances and lights.

Also keep the searchcoil away from objects containing metal, such
as floors and walls.

3)

Use a 9-volt 

ALKALINE

battery only.

Do not use Heavy Duty Batteries.

Some models come Standard
with the High Performance 11”
DD Searchcoil.
