The LCD screen (2) will light up and the buzzer will sound once while the tool is calibrating.
After calibration is completed:
Keep the on/off switch (1) depressed.

The metal detection indicator symbol (6) is indicated on the display.
Place the tool flat against the wall as shown.

Slowly slide the tool in a horizontal direction over the surface without lifting off or

changing the applied pressure (fig. C). Make sure not to tilt or lift the tool.
When 3 scanner bars (7) on the LCD screen (2) start to climb this indicates you are
apporaching a metal object.
Continue scanning the surface.

Upon close proximity to a metal object, the bars will reach the top and then fall. When no
bars are displayed, keep the on/off switch depressed and reverse the movement to get
accurate results. 3 bars reaching the top indicate the location of a metal object (fig. D2).
After detecting the work area repeat the testing procedure to confirm the operation of the

unit.
Note:
Please keep fingers away from the area of detection as this may interfere with the results.

Wall must be flat to get the most accurate results.

Note: Static charge may interfere with detection on both sides of the wire, resulting in limited
accuracy.
