PINPOINTING
PUSHBUTTON PINPOINT MODE
Target location is quick and easy using the push-button Pinpoint 
mode. You do not have to keep the coil moving to get a 
response in this mode.
1.  Once the presence of a target is indicated by the 
“beep-beep” of your CZ-3D, simply move the coil 
away from the target area, and with the coil lightly 
on  the  ground  or  very  close  to  it,  press  and  hold 
the PINPOINT button. It doesn’t matter which mode 
you’re searching in, Autotune or Target ID.
2.  As you bring the coil back into the target area, still 
pressing the PINPOINT button, the audio volume and 
pitch will increase and the meter needle will swing 
to the right.
3.  When  the  needle,  pitch  and  volume  are  at  their 
highest  points,  stop  the  coil  and  move  it  forward 
and backward a couple of times, again stopping 
over the strongest response.
4.  Repeat one more time, side to side and then front to 
back, keeping the PINPOINT button pushed in and 
stopping over the spot where you get the maximum 
volume, pitch and meter reading. Your target should 
be  directly  below  the  center  of  your  search  coil. 
With a little practice, you’ll find that you don’t even 
need to look at the meter unless you want a depth 
reading. 
NOTE:  For  quick  and  accurate  pinpointing  of  strong 
signals from large or shallow targets, push and hold 
the  pinpoint  button  with  the  coil  very  close  to  the 
approximate target area. This will “tune-out” most of 
your target so you will receive a response directly over 
it. You may also try reducing the sensitivity level and/
or raising the coil so you can barely hear the signal.
    For  very  weak  signals,  make  sure  you  press  the 
PINPOINT button with the coil completely out of the 
target area. You may also try moving the coil closer to 
the ground or increasing the sensitivity and volume 
levels.
