Basic Operation
POWERING UP
Press the POWER touch pad.
• The detector will beep 4 times
• All display segments will illuminate momentarily
• The SENSITIVITY and BATTERY indicators will
stay illuminated
SENSITIVITY
The detector’s default sensitivity will be indicated with two segments.
At this setting, the detector will detect a coin-sized object, such as a
quarter, buried approximately seven inches deep. To change the
sensitivity level, and thus the detection depth, press the SENSITIVITY

or

keys.
CAUTION:
At higher sensitivity levels, the detector is susceptible to electromagnetic
interference from electronic devices. Reduce sensitivity if demonstrating
indoors or if using near power lines or electrical equipment.
Reduce sensitivity if detector emits false signals

Basic Operation (continued)
ZAP
The ZAP control is a convenient way to eliminate a known undesirable
metal object from detection.
To demonstrate the ZAP control:
1) Set the detector in All-Metal Mode
Note: ZAP functions in all modes, but is best demonstrated
first from the All-Metal Mode.
2) Pass the searchcoil over an undesirable object.
3) Notice the Target Indication
Note: You can only ZAP objects that register under the
five left-most segments (from Iron to Zinc).
4) Press ZAP. An "R" appears under the segment to be eliminated.
5) Pass the searchcoil over the same object again.
The undesirable object is eliminated from detection
The ZAP control is easy to use in the field. As you are detecting, and
encounter an object which you wish to eliminate from detection,
simply press the ZAP touch pad after detecting the object.
The ZAP control eliminates the most-recently detected object category
from detection. The category eliminated is indicated with an "R".
HEADPHONE JACK
The Elite 2200 Metal
Detector has a stereo
headphone jack
located at the rear of
the case.
Using headphones
(not included) with
your metal detector
makes it easier to
identify subtle changes
in the threshold levels
for better detection
results, and also
reduces drain on the
batteries.
This device is to be
used with interconnect-
ing cables/headphone
cables shorter than
three meters.
