TROUBLESHOOTING
If your detector is not working as it should, follow the suggestions below
to see if you can eliminate the problem.
Problem
Suggestions
You might be sweeping the detector’s
search coil too fast or at the wrong
angle. Sweep the search coil more
slowly and hold the detector correctly.
See “Testing and Using the Detector”
and “Pinpointing a Target”.
The detector displays or
sounds false signals.
The detector might sound a false
signal if it detects heavily oxidized
metals. Try pinpointing the target from
several
different
angles
(see
“Pinpointing a Target”). If the detector
does not display and sound the same
signal each time, the target is
probably heavily oxidized metal.
There might be more than one target
in the area you are searching.
The target might be a type of metal
that the detector does not recognize.
The display does not show
the correct metal type
when the detector finds a
target.
If the target is heavily oxidized, the
detector might not display the correct
metal type. This is not a malfunction.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Metal Detector is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.
