Advice about locating objects
The appliance does not always recognise all metal objects,
cavities or electrical cables. The following conditions can
contribute to inexact results:
- very thick walls
- weak battery
- deeply laid power cables or metal objects
- shielded cables
- thick walls with thin pipes or power cables
- walls panelled with metal sheets
- very moist conditions
• With this appliance power cables cannot be determined
in circuits,
- which are isolated from the mains power supply.
- through which direct current flows.
- which are used for computer or telecommunications
systems.
• No liability will be accepted for damage caused by
manipulation of the appliance and through disregard
of the safety instructions.
Interaction with batteries
Risk of explosion!
Do not throw batteries into a fire. Do not recharge non-
rechargeable batteries.
• Never open batteries, never solder or weld batteries.
Never short-circuit batteries. The risk of explosions and
injuries exists!
• If you do not intend to use the appliance for an extended
period remove the battery, otherwise it could leak cor-
rosive acids.
• If the batteries have leaked, put on a pair of protective
gloves to avoid the risk of injury through chemical burns.
Clean the battery compartment and the battery contacts
with a dry cloth.
• Always replace the battery with a battery of the same type.
• Keep batteries away from children. Children can put
batteries into their mouths and swallow them. If a battery
is swallowed immediately seek medical assistance.

Warning:
Ensure that the wires are not trapped in any way. This could
irreparably damage the appliance.

Examples of utilisation
Tips:
• In the utilisation examples the appliance is shown as being
horizontal to the wall. However, you can also use the ap-
pliance vertical to the wall!
• Before putting it to use, test the appliance by locating a known
bearer or cavity etc., to ensure that it is working correctly.
• In cases of doubt, always consult a qualified building con-
tractor.

Locating bearers and cavities
Attention!
Before boring a hole in the wall, also check to ensure that there
is not a cable carrying alternate current located under the sur-
face. Therefore, after detecting metals, ALWAYS carry out an
additional search for power cables!
Tips:
To enable a power cable to be detected by the appliance, its
circuit must be under power. If you wish to trace for example
the cable route from light switch to lamp, switch the lamp on.
1. Press the button ON/OFF 5to switch the appliance on.
2. Repeatedly press the function switch 3until an arrow
appears above one of the following detection objects in
the display 2:
STUD (Locating bearers)
METAL (Locating metallic objects)
DEEP (Locating cavities)
AC (Locating power supply lines)
3. Hold the detector with the underside flat against the
area to be examined and press the button PUSH 6
down (several short signal tones sound).
4. Now slowly slide the detector in this position over the
wall.
5. Should an appropriate object be located close to the
measuring head 1, at first a few and then more be-
ams will appear in the display 2.
• The closer the measuring head 1is located to the
object, the greater the number of beams shown in the
display 2.
• When a constant signal tone can be heard this indicates
that the object is located directly under the measuring
head 1of the detector. Additionally, an arrow ap-
pears in the display 2.
6. Now, move the detector further over the area, until the
number of beams in the display reduces and the signal
tone switches itself off, to pinpoint the exact position and
placing of the object.

Battery display
A battery symbol appears in the display 2when the battery
is weak resp. almost discharged. Replace the battery as soon
as possible (see section "Inserting the battery").
If you do not, the measurements will be false.
Automatic switch-off
If a button is not activated for approx. 60 seconds, the
appliance switches itself off automatically.
Cleaning and storage
• Store the appliance at a dry and frost-free location.
• If you do not intend to use the appliance for an extended
period, remove the battery from the battery compart-
ment.
• Clean the appliance with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaning agents.
These could damage the housing.
