The detector’s DISCRIMINATION setting determines whether the detector will distinguish between different types of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. -
Page 12: Detection Hints
recognize the difference between signals that occur at random and signals that are stable and repeatable. To reduce false signals when searching very trashy ground, scan only a small area at a time using slow, short overlapping sweeps. DETECTION HINTS No detector is 100 percent accurate. -

the search coil over the target in a narrowing side-to-side motion. Make a visual note of the exact spot on the ground where the detector beeps. Stop the search coil directly over this spot on the ground. Then move the search coil straight forward away from you and straight back toward you a couple of times. -

Problem Suggestions The detector displays or You might be sweeping the detector’s sounds false signals. search coil too fast or at the wrong angle. Sweep the search coil more slowly and hold the detector correctly. See “Testing and Using the Detector” and “Pinpointing a Target”. - Page 15 Keep the metal detector dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits. Use and store the metal detector only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
