3.
Without moving the stud sensor, use your pointer finger to press and
hold
(Figure
A
3
). WAIT 1 sec until all the LEDs (except the
Power LED) turn off.
4.
While still pressing
, SLOWLY move the stud sensor to the left or
the right on the wall.
5.
As you move the stud sensor, watch the stud sensor LEDs and listen
for beeps.
• If
lights on the right side of the stud sensor (Figure
D
1
),
continue moving the stud sensor to the right to find the nearest stud.
As you get closer to the stud, will light (Figure
D
2
).
• If
lights on the left side of the stud sensor, continue moving the
stud sensor to the left to find the nearest stud. As you get closer to the
stud, will light.
• If live AC voltage is found within 6”-18” (.15m - .5m) of the stud
sensor’s current position, the AC LED will illuminate and you will hear
short beeps.
NOTE:
Static electrical charges that can develop on drywall and
other surfaces will spread the voltage detection area many inches on
each side of the actual electrical wire. This can cause the stud sensor
to indicate that it has found live AC when it is not actually near an
electrical wire (Figure
E
1
). To aid in locating the wire position, place
your other hand on the surface approximately 12” (30cm) from the
stud sensor (Figure
E
2
), or hold the stud sensor ½” - 2” (13mm -
50mm) away from the wall surface.
6.
When the center LEDs light and you hear a constant beep, the stud
sensor has found the center of a stud (Figure
D
3
).
NOTE:
If live AC voltage is found near the center of a stud, both the
AC LED and the center LEDs (Figure
A
4
) will illuminate and the stud
sensor will sound the short alternating beeps (AC found) followed by a
longer constant beep (stud center found).
• STOP moving the stud sensor and continue to hold it at the current
position.
• STOP pressing
.
7.
Through the hole on the stud sensor (Figure
D
4
) use a pencil to
mark the current position on the wall as the center of the stud.
8.
To find another stud on the wall, repeat the same steps.
Finding Metal Objects
The stud sensor will let you know if a metal object (e.g., a pipe) is located
behind the wall within 3” (76.2mm) of the stud sensor.
In metal detection
mode, the arrows do not indicate which direction to move the stud
sensor to find metal.
1.
To hold the stud sensor, place your thumb on one side of the stud
sensor, your pointer finger and your palm over the center of the stud
sensor, and the rest of your fingers on the same hand on the other side
of the stud sensor (Figure
C
1
).
2.
Position the stud sensor flat against the wall and parallel to a door or
window on the same wall, which gives you an indication of how the
studs are positioned behind the wall (Figure
C
2
).
3.
Without moving the stud sensor, use your pointer finger to press and
hold
(Figure
A
2
). After 1 sec all the LEDs (except the Power
LED) will turn off.
4.
While still pressing
,
SLOWLY
move the stud sensor to the left or
the right on the wall.
5.
As you move the stud sensor, watch the stud sensor LEDs.
• When
and
light on the left and right sides of the stud sensor,
slowly move the stud sensor to the left or right to find the metal object
(Figure
F
1
).
• When and light on the left and right sides of the stud sensor,
you will know that you are moving the stud sensor closer to the metal
object (Figure
F
2
).
6.
When the center LEDs (Figure
A
4
) light and you hear a constant
beep, the stud sensor has found a metal object (Figure
F
3
).
• STOP moving the stud sensor and continue to hold it at the current
position.
• STOP pressing
.
7.
Through the hole on the stud sensor (Figure
F
4
) use a pencil to
mark the current position on the wall.
8.
To find another metal object behind the wall, repeat the same steps.
Maintenance
• When the stud sensor is not in use, clean the exterior parts with a damp
cloth, wipe the stud sensor with a soft dry cloth to make sure it is dry.
• Although the stud sensor exterior is solvent resistant, NEVER use
solvents to clean the stud sensor.
• Store the stud sensor in a clean location at a temperature between -67 ˚F
(-55 ˚C) and 158 ˚F (70 ˚C).
Troubleshooting
The LED is Blinking
The battery power is low.
• Check the AAA batteries to make sure:
• Each battery is installed correctly, according to
+
and
–
listed inside
the battery compartment.
• The battery contacts are clean and free of rust or corrosion.
• The batteries are new, high-quality batteries to reduce the chance of
battery leakage.
• Make sure the AAA batteries are in proper working condition. If in doubt,
try installing new batteries.
The LED does not Turn On
If the power LED does not turn on, or the power LED turns on for 1
sec and then turns off, there is no battery power.
• Install two new, high-quality, name-brand AAA batteries in the stud sensor.
• Make sure each battery is installed correctly, according to
+
and
–
listed
inside the battery compartment.
