Comprehensive Operating Manual & Guide to Metal Detecting

If you do not have prior experience

with a metal detector, we strongly

recommend that you:

1) Adjust the Gain to a low setting in the event

of false signals. Always begin use at a
reduced Gain level; increase Gain only 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
Gain 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.
