3. Setup

3.1 Charging the Device

Before first use, fully charge the device using the provided Type-C charging cable. Connect the Type-C end to the detector's charging port and the USB-A end to a standard USB power adapter (not included). A full charge typically takes 1 hour and provides 20-45 hours of continuous use.

3.2 Power On/Off

• To Power On: Press and hold the power button (usually marked with a circle and vertical line) for approximately 3 seconds until the indicator lights illuminate.
• To Power Off: Press and hold the power button again for approximately 3 seconds.

4. Operating Instructions

The YPMEW F08 detector features intuitive two-button control. The main power button also serves to cycle through detection modes, while a secondary button (often marked with a circle) adjusts sensitivity or activates specific functions.

4.1 WiFi/RF Signal Detection (Bug Sweeper)

This mode detects wireless signals emitted by hidden cameras, listening devices, and other RF-emitting bugs. It is the default mode upon powering on.

• Activation: The device typically starts in this mode. If not, press the power button until the 'WiFi' indicator is lit.
• Sensitivity Adjustment: Use the secondary button (often marked with a circle) to adjust the detection sensitivity. Higher sensitivity is for broader scans, lower sensitivity helps pinpoint the source.
• Detection: Move the device slowly around the area. The indicator lights will illuminate, and an audible alert will sound, increasing in intensity as you approach a signal source.

4.2 Infrared Camera Finder

This mode uses a red light filter to visually identify hidden camera lenses, which reflect the red light.

• Activation: Press the power button until the 'Infrared' indicator is lit. The red LEDs on the device will activate.
• Scanning: Look through the red filter window on the device while slowly scanning the area. Hidden camera lenses will appear as bright red dots.
• Application: Effective for finding wired or wireless cameras, even if they are turned off.

4.3 Magnetic Field Detection (GPS Tracker Detector)

This mode is specifically designed to locate magnetic GPS trackers, which are often attached to vehicles or other metal surfaces.

• Activation: Press the power button until the 'Magnetic' indicator is lit.
• Scanning: Move the device along surfaces where a magnetic tracker might be hidden. The device will alert you when a magnetic field is detected.

4.4 Vibration Anti-Theft Alarm

This feature provides a motion-activated alarm to protect personal belongings or secure entry points.

• Activation: Press and hold the secondary button (often marked with a circle) to enable the vibration alarm. The 'Alarm' indicator will light up.
• Placement: Attach the device to a door handle, luggage, or any item you wish to protect. If the item is moved or disturbed, the alarm will sound.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the device. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the device frequently. Charge it regularly, even if not in active use.

6. Troubleshooting

• Device not powering on: Ensure the device is fully charged. If the issue persists, try a different Type-C charging cable.
• False alarms in WiFi/RF mode: Adjust the sensitivity level. High sensitivity can pick up common household WiFi signals. Lower the sensitivity to pinpoint stronger, closer signals.
• Infrared detection not working: Ensure the room is sufficiently dark for optimal visibility of reflections.
• Charging port intermittent: If the charging port is loose or inconsistent, contact customer support for assistance.
