BATTERY
Place the batteres n the battery
box consderng + and – termnals.
AA Alkalne batteres are recommended for best performance. Besdes, good qualty
NMH Rechargeable batteres can be used. Hgh mA batteres provde longer use
compared to low Ma batteres.
Fully charged alkalne batteres last maxmum 30 hours. Other type and brand of
batteres n the market may der n operatng lfe.
Your devce s delvered wth AA Alkalne
battery and battery box.
When battery s low, devce sounds alarm approxmately every mnute. When ths s
heard, the devce operates 3-4 more hours.

SETTINGS
GENERAL: In ths mode, the devce runs at maxmum depth search. At the same tme,
the devce produces sngle type of sound wthout metal dscrmnaton. Iron Audo
button s not actve n ths mode.
MODE 1: The devce dscrmnates metals n ths mode. (Ths s for deeper searches than
MODE 2.) Produces 3 derent sounds to metals. 2 smlar sounds for non-ferrous metals
and gold, a deeper sound for ferrous metals.
MODE 2: In ths mode, the devce provdes metal dscrmnaton as well as provdng
more convenent operaton n beaches and areas rch n mnerals. It s recommended
that ths devce s used n areas rch n ron mneral, beach and tllage where ground
settng s not possble.
Senstvty settng s made to prevent nose from the ground or wrong sgnal sounds
caused by some electromagnetc nterference (electrcal machnes, radar, rado, TV,
electrc lnes) n the envronment. Senstvty settng s also the depth settng. When
senstvty s set to be at maxmum level, depth wll ncrease to maxmum too.
SENSITIVITY
Ths s a part provdng ferrous metal detecton settng and allowng to turn on/o the
sounds of these metals. Iron audo s only actve n Mode 1 and 2.
Iron audo s also used to elmnate msleadng sgnals caused by ron mnerals n the
ground.
IRON AUDIO
Ths button controls devce sound level. It allows the detecton of weak sgnal sounds
receved by the deep or small metals by magnfcaton. Level 10 s the level where
sound s the hghest, as ths level turns all the sounds up, msleadng sgnals and
ground nose wll also go up. Gradually turnng the volume down from level 10,
weakens the sound and turns t o n the end.
VOLUME
Ths s a settng done to elmnate nose and nterference caused by mnerals n the
ground. Ground settng provdes the devce wth a hgher performance and prevents
t from transmttng wrong sgnals caused by the area rch n mnerals.
GROUND SETTING

10
GROUND SETTING
GROUND SETTING s set to "0" and SENSITIVITY s set to "10". Search s done by lftng
the col by 5 cm from the ground and movng t rght to left n a parallel fashon.
Meanwhle, n order to elmnate ground eects, GROUND SETTING button s turned
from left to rght slowly and released when the sound stops. Your ground settng s
completed.
In case the ground beng searhed has a varable nature, you should do the ground
settng n areas where the most ground eect s receved (such as rock or hole) n order
to mnmze the ground eect whle searchng.
It should be noted that ground settng level does not exceed level “7”. In these levels,
the devce provdes most stable search. Over level“7”, devce detects ron and gold but
may cause depth loss for some other nn-ferrous metals. In these cases, ground settng
should be repeated by gradually decreasng senstvty.
In case ground settng cannot be acheved and the devce produces deep sounds when
ron sound s over level 5, ths means the ground beng searched ncludes ron mnerals.
Another case when ground settng cannot be acheved s when the ground s abundant
n mnerals.
In these areas, f the ground settng cannot be stll acheved even f the senstvty s
decreased, you should change to Mode 1 or 2 and IRON AUDIO must be n mnmum.
NOTE: When there are changes in eects received from the ground or the environ-
ment, sensitivity and ground settings should be repeated.
In order to swtch on the devce, on/o swtch should be brought to the desred operat-
on poston (General, Mode 1 or 2). A short sound wll be heard showng that the devce
s ready to use. You can swtch the devce o by turnng the swtch to OFF poston.

SEARCH AND METAL DETECTION
Upon completon of the
settngs, you can start
explorng by lftng the
head by 5 cm from the
ground and movng t
rght to left n a parallel
fashon.
5 cm
CF77 s a devce that operates dependng on the moton. That’s why t should be
movng to detect metals. As the devce operates on the prncple of automatc reset, t
does not detect the metal f you hold t steady on the metal.
Target Target
Devce provdes metals wth sngle sound n GENERAL MODE and 3 derent sounds
n MODE 1 and 2. 2 smlar sounds for non-ferrous metals and gold, a deeper sound
for ferrous metals. It s recommended that you test the devce wth derent metals to
be able to recognze the sounds. Ths wll make the search more convenent for the
user.
Movng the devce both rght to left and left to
rght on the ground wll make t easer to detect
the metals dcult to detect.

12
SEARCH AND METAL DETECTION
In case there s stll nterference even after other settngs are done (ground settng, ron
audo), t s necessary to turn senstvty down. As senstvty settng wll aect depth, t
should be done gradually.
Interference Elimination
In case you do not want ferrous metals to be detected, IRON AUDIO button should be
set to the mnmum. In ths way, devce does not produce sounds for ferrous metals n
search. When ron audo s turned rght, t wll provde a deeper sound to ferrous metals.
If you are searchng n areas rch n mnerals and would lke to detect ferrous metals,
IRON AUDIO s frst set to maxmum. Then, turned left tll ron sound comng from the
ground s not heard anymore. Ths process wll elmnate ron mneral sounds and allow
the devce to detect ferrous metals.
Elmnatng ferrous metals
When the target s detected, dg the surface by 3–5 cm and check the sgnal agan. If no
sgnal s receved, the target s n the dg part.
If the target s stll n the ground, cut the secton whch you thnk ncludes the target
usng a sharp tool. Ths prevents the materal to be scattered around and makes t
easer to fll n the hole. Check f the target s n the hole dg. If the target s not n the
hole, place the detector on the ground by mantanng parallel poston of the head and
grasp some sol and move t around the bobbn. Make sure you do not have rng,
watch, bracelet, etc. on you. Repeat ths acton tll you fnd the target. Fll the hole back
when you make sure no more targets are left n the ground.
Digging the target out
As n all metal detectors, the devce may not provde 100% accuracy because
metals send derent sgnals dependng on ther postons, depth, mneral
ntensty, conductvty and shapes. For example; rusty sheet or can n the
ground may send gold lke sgnals. In these cases, t s best to dg to fnd out.
WARNING!

TROUBLESHOOTING and MAINTENANCE
Devce s not operatng at all?
1. Check the battery power and connectons.
2. Make sure that the battery termnals are placed correctly.
Devce receves nterference?
1. Make sure that the col s tghtened and wrap the bobbn wre around the shaft.
2. Walls or ground mght have metals f you are usng the devce ndoor.
3. There mght be another detector operatng and you mght be close to power grd.
4. Set the senstvty.
5. Ground s rch n mnerals.
Devce receves sgnals wth uncertan ntervals.
Intervals mght mean derent angle or very deep targets. Do the search from derent
angles or dg by 5-10 cm.
CF77 that you have purchased does not requre extensve mantenance as t s manufac-
tured wth hgh qualty materal. Followng are the recommendatons n order to get
the best performance and be able to operate the devce for a long tme:
If you wll not use the devce for some tme, remove the batteres. If batteres leak,
serous damages may occur n battery box. Your devce warranty wll be vod becau-
se of user error.
Keep the devce clean, f there s dust and sand accumulaton around the devce,
wpe wth a wet cloth and dry wth a dry cloth. Sand and dust may damage functon
buttons.
Do not rub the head on the ground. Replace the protectve cover f t s worn n
order not to damage col.
Control box s desgned resstant to humdty but t s not water resstant. Therefore,
control box should not contact water.
Never let the devce contact petroleum-based products.
