If the pointer on the view meter is between 3 and 6 (green area), the batteries have enough power
to operate the detector. If the pointer is not in the green area, replace the batteries.
USING EARPHONES
You can connect a pair of stereo earphones (not supplied) to the detector so you can listen to it
privately. Using earphones also saves battery power and makes it easier to identify subtle changes
in the sounds you hear, for better detection results. Your local electronics store has a wide selection
of earphones.
To connect earphones to the detector, insert the earphones’ 1/8-inch plug into the EAR jack on the
side of the control housing.
Note
: The detector’s internal speaker disconnects when you connect earphones.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use earphones.
Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust
the volume to a comfortable level.
Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.
