OWNER’S MANUAL

The

Discovery 3300

is a professional metal detector. While the most difficult aspects of metal detecting have been automated, it is a sophisticated electronic device which requires an understanding of some basic features and metal detecting concepts.

If you do not have prior experience with a metal detector, we strongly recommend that you:

1)Adjust the Sensitivity to a low setting in the event of false signals. Always begin use at a reduced sensitivity level; use at full sensitivity after you have become familiar with the detector.

2)Do not use indoors. This detector is for outdoor use only. Many household appliances emit electromagnetic energy, which can interfere with the detector. If conducting an indoor demonstration, turn the sensitivity down and keep the search coil away from appliances such as computers, televisions and microwave ovens. If your detector beeps erratically, turn off appliances and lights, especially those with dimmer switches.

Also keep the search coil away from objects containing metal, such as floors and walls.

3)Read this manual. Most importantly, review the Quick-Start Demo (p.7-8) and Basic Operation (p. 9-11).

4)Use 9-volt ALKALINE batteries only. Do not use Heavy Duty Batteries.
