Configuració

Instal·lació de la bateria:

1. Localitzeu el compartiment de la bateria a la part posterior del dispositiu.
2. Obriu la tapa del compartiment de la bateria.
3. Insert the required batteries (e.g., 9V battery, as per device markings) ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Tanqueu bé la tapa del compartiment de la bateria.

Encesa inicial:

Premeu el botó ON/OFF button to power on the device. The LCD display will illuminate, and a brief self-test may occur.

Instruccions de funcionament

The detector offers different modes for various detection tasks. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before scanning.

Selecting Detection Mode:

Use the mode selection button (AC Sens) to switch between sensitivity levels for AC wire detection (I, II, III). Other detection modes (Stud, Metal, Cavity) are typically automatic or selected by specific buttons on the device, as indicated on the display.

Scanning for Studs (Wooden Beams):

1. Select the appropriate mode for stud detection.
2. Place the detector flat against the wall surface.
3. Feu lliscar lentament el detector horitzontalment per la superfície.
4. La pantalla mostrarà un incrementasing signal strength as it approaches a stud. An acoustic signal may also sound.
5. Mark the edges of the stud as indicated by the device.

Scanning for Metal:

1. Select the appropriate mode for metal detection.
2. Place the detector flat against the surface.
3. Slowly move the detector across the area.
4. The device will indicate the presence of metal objects (e.g., pipes, rebar) with a visual and/or acoustic signal.
5. The intensity graph will help pinpoint the exact location.

Scanning for Live AC Wires:

1. Select the AC wire detection mode.
2. Adjust the sensitivity level (I, II, III) using the dedicated button (AC Sens) to suit the depth of the wires. Start with lower sensitivity and increase if needed.
3. Move the detector slowly across the surface.
4. The device will indicate the presence of live AC wires with a distinct visual alert (e.g., flashing icon, voltage alert indicator) and an acoustic signal.
5. Precaució: Always verify the absence of live wires with a non-contact voltage tester before drilling or cutting.

Detecting Cavities:

The detector can also identify hollow spaces or cavities behind surfaces. This mode typically works by detecting changes in material density. Follow the general scanning procedure, and the device will indicate areas of lower density.

Manteniment

• Neteja: Netegeu el dispositiu amb un drap suau i sec després de cada ús. No utilitzeu productes de neteja abrasius ni dissolvents.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the detector in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.
• Substitució de la bateria: Canvieu les piles quan aparegui l'indicador de bateria baixa a la pantalla per garantir lectures precises.
