directional arrow turn 90
degrees and see if the arrow
tracks.
• Always point the locator in
the direction of the tag while
moving, not away from it.
• If the arrow is lost or jumps in
direction continue on in the
last known direction.
• If no arrow is displayed, use
the distance indication in a
"warmer/colder" fashion until
the direction is shown.
• Search by driving or walking
when no signal is received.
• Pressing Down for 2 seconds
silences the beeper.
