The Elite 2200 is a

professional metal detector.

While the most difficult aspects of metal detecting have been
automated, it is a sophisticated electronic device which
requires an understanding of some basic features and metal detecting
concepts.

If you do not have prior experience with a metal detector, we strongly
recommend that you:

1) Adjust the Sensitivity to a low setting in the event of false

signals. 

Always begin use at a reduced sensitivity level; increase to

full sensitivity after you have become familiar with the detector.

2) Do not use indoors.  

This detector is for outdoor use only.  Many

household appliances emit electromagnetic energy, which can
interfere with the detector.  If conducting an indoor demonstration,
turn the sensitivity down and keep the searchcoil away from
appliances such as computers, televisions and microwave ovens.
If your detector beeps erratically, turn off appliances and lights,
especially those with dimmer switches.

Also keep the searchcoil away from objects containing metal, such
as floors and walls.

3)

Read this manual. Most importantly, review the 

Quick-Start Demo

(p.7-8) and

Basic Operation 

(p. 9-12)

.

4)

Use 9-volt 

ALKALINE

batteries only.  Do not use Heavy Duty

Batteries.
