MAINTENANCE

Your Ranger Body Scanner/Metal Detector is an example of superior design 

and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the Body 

Scanner so you can enjoy it for years.
•  Keep the Body Scanner dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids         

can contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
•  Handle the Body Scanner gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the 

circuit boards and case and can cause the Body Scanner to work improperly.
•  Use and store the Body Scanner only in normal temperature environments. 

Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or 

melt plastic parts.
•  Keep the Body Scanner away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature 

wear of parts.
•  Wipe the Body Scanner with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking 

new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to 

clean the security wand.
Modifying or tampering with the Body Scanner’s internal parts can cause a 

malfunction and might invalidate your Body Scanner’s warranty. If your Body 

Scanner is not operating as it should, send it to the address on the back of this 

manual along with your proof-of-purchase.
