TROUBLE SHOOTING
Problem
Suggestion
The detector displays
or
sounds
false
signals.
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.
The detector might sound a false signal if it detects
heavily oxidized metals. Try pinpointing the target
from several different angles. If the detector does
not display and sound the same signal each time,
the target is probably heavily oxidized metal.
The display does not
show
the
correct
metal type when the
detector
finds
a
target.
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.
If the target is heavily oxidized, the detector might
not display the correct metal type. This is not a
malfunction.
