On the majority of inland sites the ground control should be set to AUTO 
and the recommended sensitivity setting between 7-9 on the scale will give 
the best results. Some types of ground may give rise to false signals and the 
sensitivity level should be reduced to a point where operation of the detector 
becomes stable. 

Sweep the detector head from side to side with a steady relaxed motion. 
Keep the search-head parallel and as close as possible to the ground right 
across the arc of the sweep. 

Search your chosen site carefully by moving forward only the width of the 
search-head at each sweep. Move up and down the search area in lines so 
that there is plenty of overlap in the ground you have covered. Search with the 
sensitivity set as high as possible according to the ground conditions. 

Setting the GROUND control.

Experienced users can achieve a higher level of sensitivity by setting 
the ground control manually.

With GROUND set to AUTO, DISC VOL and IRON VOL set to maximum 
and with DISC set to minimum, find an area which is free from metal.

a) Switch the GROUND control out of the AUTO setting to position 1.
b) Start sweeping the search head from side to side. Whilst sweeping, 
increase the GROUND control setting until the low (iron) tone disappears. 
You have now ground excluded the CS6MX for that area.
c) Reset the DISC VOL, IRON VOL and DISC to your preferred settings.
