damage it.

About batteries
- Use only fresh alkaline batteries of required size & voltage (2 x 9V batteries, not incl.).
- Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries.
- If you do not plan to use the device for a week or longer, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
- To extend battery life, switch the left and right battery after 3 ~ 4 hours of operation.
- Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Never bury or burn them.
5. Operation
a. Switching on your Detector
First turn the volume knob to 12 o'clock (halfway between MIN and MAX). Slide the power switch to ON. All
symbols are displayed on the LCD screen. The detector sounds a low, a medium and a high tone respectively.
After about 2 seconds, the detector automatically enters the stand-by mode. The LCD now displays SENS,
DISC and their respective values before power-down.
b. Setting the Operating Mode
The detector has four operating modes: ALL-METAL, DISC, NOTCH and AUTO NOTCH. Select one of these
modes by pressing the MODE button at the left of the control panel. The LCD will display the selected mode.
- ALL-METAL: used for detecting any type of metal. When hunting in this mode, it is important that the
detector be ground balanced to offset the effects of minerals present in the soil, or to balance the effects of
salt water when hunting on beaches. To do so, press GND TRAC several times to allow the detector to
stabilize. Lower the search coil and slowly sweep the search coil at about one inch above the ground.
When the unit passes over a metal object, the detector will display the depth of the object and emit a tone.
The higher the tone, the closer you sweep over the object.
- DISC: used for target discrimination. Set the discrimination range by pressing ADJ. Increase or decrease
the range with + or – respectively.
- NOTCH: used to ignore or to accept a specific type of metal. The LCD displays a row of bars below the
icons. Press + or – to select an icon. You will see one of the arrows above the bar blink. Press ENT to
notch the item pointed by the blinking arrow. At this time, the bar below the arrow will disappear and the
detector will ignore the notched item. Press ENT again to reselect the item and to allow the detector to
detect the item.
- AUTO NOTCH: used to automatically reject trash such as bottle caps, pull tabs or S-CAPS without loss of
coins.
