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

5

to switch the appliance on.

2. Repeatedly press the function switch

3

until 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

1

is 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

1

of 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.
