    GROUND General features As the ground balance setting is the one requiring the most experience, we recommend that you read this chapter and use the different ground balance modes carefully, while acquiring your own experience of the ground. By default, remain in manual mode at level 90 for inland or dry sand. On wet beach reduce the level from 25 to 27.

The different Dēus elements can be charged while switched on or off, but switching them off speeds up the process.You should use the power adaptor supplied, which enables all three elements to be charged simultaneously when used with the USB/3 mini-B cable, also supplied.
  • Page 32 POWER SUPPLY - BATTERIES The three Dēus batteries are identical. The batteries for the wireless headphones and the remote control are easy to replace as they are connected to the circuit with a mini-connector and double-sided adhesive tape.The search coil battery is sealed for obvious reasons - safety and impermeability.

  • Page 35 EXPERT By default the power is set to level 2, which offers a very dependable performance level that is largely sufficient in most cases. The power only has a subtle effect on the device’s pure performance with regard to sensitivity. However, it increases your detector’s power consumption as well as alter its stability on difficult ground.On iron-infested, mineralised ground, there is no need to use a high power setting, level 1 will be sufficient as in any case it is impossible to detect deeply in this kind of ground.It is therefore better to limit the saturation caused by iron and the ground by lowering the setting.

  • Page 37 EXPERT The Ground Notch complements the ground balance settings : it G.B. enables a "window" of ground value to be rejected rather than rejec- ting all the ground values below the setting. You can for example adjust the ground balance on the value of the prospected ground (eg: 78), then reject the false signals due to hot-rocks by adjusting the NOTCH GROUND between 83-90 only, thus you will not reject G.B.
  • Page 38 PRACTICAL INFORMATION When detecting, it is important that you sweep the coil parallel to the ground, using wide movements, as close as possible to the surface (without actually touching it). Proximity to the ground will increase the likelihood of detecting a deep target and will enable the most discreet objects to be identified more easily.
  • Page 39 PRECAUTION FOR USE Dēus is a precision device, designed to be as robust as possible. Despite this, it is important to take care of it and exercise certain precautions in order to prolong its life: Do not store your device for long periods with discharged batteries. Ideally you should discharge/recharge the batteries at least once a month, and if possible store them 40 to 70% charged.
