CARING FOR YOUR ACE 350 DETECTOR
Your Garrett detector is a rugged machine, designed for
outdoor use. However, as with all electronic equipment,
there are some simple ways you can care for your detector to
maintain its high performance.
• Avoid extreme temperatures as much as possible, such
as storing the detector in an automobile trunk during the
summer or outdoors in sub-freezing weather.
• Keep your detector clean. Wipe the control housing with a
damp cloth when necessary.
• Remember that your searchcoil is submersible, but your
control housing is not. Never submerge any control housing
or the connector in water (unless specifically designed for
underwater use).
• Protect your control housing from heavy mist, rain and
blowing surf.
• Disassemble the stem, and wipe it and the searchcoil clean
with a damp cloth.
• When storing for longer than one month, remove the
batteries from the detector.
• It is best to use quality alkaline batteries. When changing
batteries, be sure to replace with all new batteries for
optimum performance.
