Detector Care and Safety
GENERAL CARE AND SAFETY
Wash your hands before handling the detector when using sunscreen or insect repellents�
The Display lens is made from quality optical plastic for clear viewing of the screen and is therefore prone to scratching
or serious damage if not treated with due care� Application of the supplied screen protector is strongly recommended�
Replace it periodically if it becomes scuffed or scratched�
Never clean the Display lens using solvents or alcohol-based cleaners� To clean the Display lens, use a slightly damp
cloth with mild soap detergent� Dry with a clean lint-free cloth to remove water-spots�
Do not use solvent or alcohol-based cleaners to clean any part of your detector� Use a slightly damp cloth with mild
soap detergent�
Do not submerge the detector in water with the Control Pod disassembled from the shaft, as the battery compartment
is only waterproof when assembled to the supplied shaft� Note also that the use of after-market shafts prevents the
battery compartment from sealing correctly, causing it to leak/become damaged�
Do not allow the detector to come into contact with gasoline/petrol or other petroleum-based liquids�
Do not bring the detector or accessories into contact with sharp objects as this may cause scratches and damage�
Avoid getting sand and grit in any moving parts including the Shafts, Camlocks and Yoke assembly� If sand and grit
accumulates in these parts they should be rinsed in fresh water then dried thoroughly�
Prior to going detecting, check that the Camlocks are gripping the Shafts tightly and do not slip� Follow the advice
listed in "Maintenance of Parts" — "Tightening the Camlocks" (page 55)�
Do not expose the detector to extreme temperature conditions� The storage temperature range is from −20°C to +70°C
(−4°F to +158°F)� Avoid leaving it in a hot vehicle�
Ensure the Coil Cable is kept in good condition, free of strain, kinks and tight bends�
Do not expose accessories not listed as waterproof to liquid/moisture or excessive humidity�
Do not allow small children to play with the detector or accessories, small parts are a choking hazard�
Only charge the detector and accessories according to the instructions provided�
Do not charge the detector or accessories in extreme temperature conditions — Only charge the detector in ambient
temperatures between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F)�
Do not use tools to tighten the Coil Connector to the Control Pod, this will damage the Control Pod� If the Coil
Connector is not fitting easily, flush any dirt/grit away with fresh water then allow it to dry before trying again�
Do not attempt to adjust the Coil Connector nut on the back of the Control Pod� This is locked in place and tampering
will damage the Control Pod�
Do not poke sharp objects into the Speaker grille to clean it, this will damage the Speaker and compromise
waterproofing� Clean the Speaker by flushing fresh water through the grille�
