Thank you for buying the CMDH01 metal detector. Read this manual carefully before bringing it into service. The CMDH01 is a hand-held metal detector designed for leisure activities. Typical uses will include body and parcel search for metal objects, wherever hidden metal can be detected. 2. Operation - The CMDH01 operates on one 9V standard or rechargeable battery. To install the battery, slide off the battery cover at the bottom of the handle, attach the battery correctly to the connector, place it into its compartment and slide the cover back on. - Turn the unit on by setting the on/off switch to “I” – simultaneously the green LED lights up. - You can modify the sensitivity and depth range by turning the small screw, located under the small hole at the front side, just above the handle. You need a fine crosshead screwdriver to turn it. Turn the sensitivity adjuster clockwise until the red LED lights up and a constant audio tone is heard. Then, turn the screw counterclockwise until the red LED just goes out and the tone fades. Now, the detector is tuned for optimum sensitivity and range. - Sweep the detector backwards and forwards continuously at a height of 10-30mm above the area to be scanned. - The presence of metal will be indicated by the audio warning tone and the red light coming on. If the detector is held still over a metal object, the detection signal will automatically fade. Therefore, it is important that the unit is continually scanning the surface when in use. 3. Performance The sensitivity of the detector is determined primarily by the size, shape and composition of the object to be detected. Typical performance figures are: Maximum detection range Object Low sensitivity Optimum sensitivity palmtop computer 20cm 28cm metal pen 10cm 15cm small key 5cm 10cm 4.
