8. Operation
a) Inserting/changing the battery
Insert the battery before using the multidetector fortherst time. Change the battery when the battery level
indicator(C)appearsontheLCDdisplay.
Removethebatterycompartmentcover(12)onthebackofthemultidetector.
Inserta9V/DC6LR61battery(notincluded)intothebatterycompartment.Ensurethatyouobservetheplus/+and
minus/-signs.Thestrapshouldbeplacedunderthebatteryandthenloopedoverthetoptoallowyoutoremove
the battery easily at a later date.
Replacethebatterycompartmentcover.
You can also use a 9 V rechargeable battery to power the multidetector. If you are using a 9 V rechargeable
battery,notethattheactualvoltagesuppliedisapproximately8.4V.
b) Turning the multidetector on and off
Before turning on the multidetector, check that the sensor (9) is dry. If necessary, wipe the sensor dry using
a lint-free cloth.
If the multidetector has been subjected to a change in temperature, allow it to reach room temperature
before turning it on.
Press the on/off (3) button to turn on the multidetector. Before using the multidetector, check that the metal detection
featureisworkingproperly.If thereareno metalobjects, magneticeldsor otherobjectsmadeofdetectable
materials within range of the sensor (9), the multidetector will beep and the green LED (5) will turn on.
Ifthesensordetectsanobject,theredLED(6)willturnonandyouwillhearalongbeep.IftheredLEDashes
andyouhearseveralbeeps,themultidetectorneedstobecalibrated.Seesection"c)Calibratingthemultidetector"
for more information.
To switch off the multidetector, press the on/off button.
If no buttons are pressed and no objects are detected for 5 minutes, the multidetector will switch off automatically
toconservebatterypower.
c) Calibrating the multidetector
Press the on/off button (3) to turn on the multidetector.
Holdthemultidetectorinfrontofyouawayfrommetalandwoodenobjectsandmagneticelds.
Holddownthemetal/ACvoltagedetectionbutton(1)untilthemultidetectorstopsbeepingandthegreenLED(5)
turns on.
This indicates that the multidetector was successfully calibrated.
