MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Your metal detector is an example of excellent design and craftsmanship. The
following tips will help you care for your detector so that you can enjoy it for
years to come.
• Handle the detector with care and caution. Impacts and falls can damage
circuits and housings and thus lead to false readings.
• Use the detector only under normal ambient temperatures.
• Temperature extremes shorten the life of electrical components and can
cause damage to the housing.
• Keep the detector away from dust and dirt, as this can cause premature
wear of parts.
• Only clean the device with a damp cloth. Do not use chemicals, strong
detergents or solvents for cleaning.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the unit does not work, follow the steps below. If this does not solve the
problem, contact our customer service.
Problem
Potential solution
The detector
sends false
signals or tones.
You are swinging the search plate too fast or at the
wrong angle. Try to move the search plate more slowly
and parallel to the ground.
If objects are heavily rusted, a false signal is sometimes
sent. Try to aim at the target from a different angle. If
the unit emits different signals and sounds each time, it
may be badly rusted metal.
The display
shows the
wrong type of
metal when the
detector finds a
target.
There is more than one metal object underground.
The object is made of a metal that the detector does not
recognise.
If the object is heavily rusted, the metal type may not be
recognised correctly. However, this is not a malfunction.
