The Explorer II is a high-quality electronic instrument, finely engineered and
packaged in a durable housing. Taking proper care of the detector is mostly
common sense.
•Do not leave the battery pack in the Explorer II handle when the detector is not in use
for extended periods of time. Damage caused by leaking batteries could be severe and would
void the warranty through user negligence.
•If temperatures are very high, do not leave the detector in excessive heat for longer than
necessary. Covering it when not in use will help protect it. Try to avoid leaving it in a closed car
trunk or in a car sitting in sunlight.
•The control box has been designed to resist moisture. However, Minelab advises protecting the
control box in extreme conditions. Obviously the control box should not be dropped into water.
•Never allow the detector to come into contact with gasoline or other petroleum-based
liquids.
•Keep the detector clean and dry and avoid getting sand and grit into the shafts or fastenings
(e.g. yoke bolt and camlocks). Do not use solvents to clean the detector. Use a damp cloth with mild
soap detergent.
•Ensure the coil cable is in good condition and not subject to undue stress.
•Search coil. The Explorer coil is not interchangeable with any previous Minelab model.
•Flat or faulty batteries cause many detector problems. Ensure that only quality alkaline
batteries are used, and that they are replaced when you hear the warning signal through the
headphones or speaker.
•Do not dispose of battery pack in fire (contact local authorities for disposal/recycling).
Do not attempt to disassemble or short circuit the battery pack.
•Take precautions when transporting or storing the detector. Although the detector is
constructed from the highest quality materials and has undergone rigorous durability tests, the
display screen could be prone to scratching or serious damage if not treated with due care.
