CARE OF YOUR DETECTOR

Storage

When not in use your detector should be stored in a dry warm environment. If it is not to be used
for a certain length of time it is advisable to remove the batteries to avoid leakage which could
cause serious damage. The working life of your detector will be shortened by careless use or
neglect of the unit. Think of your detector as a scientific instrument. Your detector is designed to
withstand rugged handling on any terrain, but misuse or lack of due attention will tell in the end.

Maintenance

Make sure that the antenna fits on the shaft stub in a snug manner. If they are loose they may be
tightened by prying out the 'slots', that are located on each of the main shaft stubs, with a knife
or screwdriver.

DETECTOR NOT OPERATING?

(a)
Check the condition of batteries under load using the meter. (See Battery Check
Procedure).
(b)
Check that the antennea is properly attached to the control box.
(c)
Interchange batteries and ensure connections are correct and secure. Battery life can vary
tremendously between makes, therefore your 'new' batteries may already be insufficiently
powerful to run the detector.

Oscillating Signal Accompanied By Slight Meter Fluctuation

(a)
This could be due to poor battery connections. Ensure that they are tight and the batteries
are securely clipped into place.
(b)
Loose antenna connection.
(c)
Interference from a vehicle using a radio transmitter or possibly a stationary source of
electromagnetic radiation - if this occurs then reduce the Signal Balance. If the problem
persists then the best remedy is to wait until the transmission stops.

Intermittent Sound From Speaker

(a)
This could be due to poor battery connections. Ensure that they are tight and the
batteries are securely clipped into place.
(b)
Loose antenna connection.
(c)
Radio interference (see above).
