The Land Star is a professional metal detector. The concepts and
terminology can be quite unfamiliar if you are new to the hobby.
To understand it quickly and to get the most enjoyment possible
from your detector, we strongly recommend that you:
1) Turn the Sensitivity knob to a low setting if you get false
signals. A little practice is required to understand when and how
you can use the sensitivity at or near 100%.
2) Do not use indoors. This detector is for outdoor use only. Many
household appliances emit electromagnetic energy, which can
interfere with the detector.
demonstration, turn the sensitivity down and keep the searchcoil
away from all floors, walls and metal objects.
3) Read this manual.
Most importantly, review the Summary of Operating Modes (10)
and the Quick-Start Demo (6).
4) Use 9volt ALKALINE batteries only.
