recorded (unless the QUICK READ mode is selected).

To prevent personal injury or death Stay clear of all roadways and maintain a
safe distance from targets. Use protective wear when appropriate. Turn off
the Tracer Pro in areas designated or posted as prohibiting cell phones or
radio frequency devices. Always obey signs regarding radio frequency
devices. In addition to powering off, do not remove or install batteries in
