5.2 Detección de metales
- Hold the detector by the handle and sweep the detection head evenly over the area to be scanned.
- When a metallic object is detected, the red LED indicator will light up, and the device will either emit an audible alarm or vibrate, depending on the selected mode.
- Move the detector slowly to pinpoint the exact location of the metallic object. The alarm signal will be strongest when the detection head is directly over the object.
