Setup
- Charging the Device: Before first use, ensure both the main detector unit and the transmitter box are fully charged. Connect the charging cable to the charging interface on each unit and plug it into a suitable power source. The charging indicator light will show the charging status.
- Assembling the Detector: Attach the antennas to the main detector unit. Ensure they are securely fastened.
- Positioning the Transmitter: The transmitter box should be placed on the ground or a stable surface in the area you intend to search.
- Wearing the Detector: The main detector unit is designed to be held. Refer to the "Operating Instructions" section for proper holding techniques.

Operating Instructions
1. Proper Holding and Positioning
- Hold the main detector unit with the antennas pointing forward.
- Keep the host parallel to your thigh.
- Ensure the detector is on the same side as the host (transmitter).
- Maintain an upward rake of 1-3 degrees when holding the instrument.
- Extend the receiving antenna correctly, at a 90-degree angle to your body.

2. Selecting Target Metal
On the main detector unit, use the selection buttons to choose the type of metal you wish to detect (Gold, Silver, Copper, Diamond). The corresponding indicator light will illuminate.

3. Scanning and Detection
Once the target metal is selected, begin scanning the area. The detector will emit signals to locate the buried objects. The scanning light will indicate activity.
The device uses a remote search system. When the detector indicates a target, move around the area to narrow down the location. The intersection point of multiple scans will indicate where the target is buried.

4. Detection Range and Depth
The detection capabilities vary based on the object size and burial duration:
- For 5x5 cm objects, the instrument can detect at least 3.5 meters.
- For 30x30 cm objects, detection range is 5 to 8 meters.
- If 30x30 cm objects are buried for a long time, they can be detected up to 20 meters.
- For very large objects, the detection depth will be even greater, up to 25 meters inspection depth and 1400 meters search area.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the detector and transmitter with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dirt or moisture. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: Store the device in its original carrying case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Battery Care: Recharge the batteries regularly, even if the device is not in frequent use, to maintain battery health. Avoid fully discharging the batteries for extended periods.
Troubleshooting
