The
Outback
is
easy to use detector.
The most difficult aspects of
metal detecting have been automated.
However, if you are new to the hobby,
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 search coil 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 search coil away from objects containing metal, such
as floors and walls.
3) Read this manual. Most importantly, review the Quick-Start Demo
(p.7) and Basic Operation (pp. 9-12).
4) Use 9-volt ALKALINE batteries only. Do not use Heavy Duty
Batteries.
