CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF YOUR XP METAL DETECTOR
AND WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF RESEARCH AND EXPLORATION!
You have invested in a high-tech detector capable of exceptional performance, which was
designed and developed in France. You are therefore helping our Company to further research
in the field of metal detecting and we thank you for your contribution.
ÂŽ, the first fully wireless detector
Dēus is innovative in terms of metal detector design as it offers an architecture based on three
elements communicating via a digital radio link. In this new design the coil, remote control
and audio headphones have each been made independent through the integration of very
compact, high-capacity lithium batteries.
An ultra-miniature electronic circuit, incorporated in the search coil, digitises and analyses
the signals. Data is then sent to the headphones and remote control in real time via a digital
radio link. With this method, the signal is processed at source and not conveyed via a wire link,
which greatly improves data quality.
Incorporating components from leading-edge technologies such as scientific instrumentation
has enabled us to produce a powerful, rapid, lightweight, compact and fully controllable digital
detector.
Whether you are an experienced user or a beginner, Dēus lets you decide whether or not to
modify any of its settings. Powerful pre-configured factory programmes enable all users to get
started immediately, while expert detectorists can choose more advanced parameters via the
intuitive interface.
What is described in this manual as the "Remote Control" is in fact the user interface, known as
the ‘control box’ on conventional detectors.
It enables the detector’s many functions to be precisely adjusted via a graphical interface.
It can also receive program updates (via internet) through its USB socket.
02
TECHNICAL INTRODUCTION continued ...
Dēus is also exceptional in being able to function without the remote control, with just the
coil and the wireless headphones, for an even more compact, lightweight configuration !
Like the remote control, the headphones contain all the components needed for detection,
they are a genuine control unit in themselves, but on an ultra-miniature scale and rain proof.
They take over in the absence of the remote control for adjusting the detector settings.
With the headphones you can turn Dēus on and off, change the main detection settings such
as sensitivity, discrimination, ground balance, tone, frequency (4 kHz, 8 kHz, 12 kHz, 18 kHz),
volume, etc. as well as selecting the factory programmes or those previously configured with
the remote control !
Performance is identical whether you are searching with or without the remote control !
Lastly, the new patented XP stem has the combined advantages of an S-shaped stem and a
straight telescopic stem.
It enables you to deploy or fold away the device in just a few seconds, and to change the coil
in an instant.
Its user-friendly design ensures comfort and convenience for the user: length adjustable by
millimetre increments, improved operating angle and shaped rubber handle for a firm, controlled
grip.
So now you’re ready for a new adventure!

10 - GOLD FIELD
GOLD FIELD uses another detection method designed for detecting on
ground that is highly mineralised which is often found where gold
nuggets are deposited. In these conditions, targets can be seen as
ground mineralisation or ferrous objects, especially when they are deep.
To go deeper in these difficult conditions, the "Gold Field" program uses
a true All Metal mode that allows you to accept a zone of ground that is
usually not available. Instead of rejecting all the ground values below a
predefined value (as on conventional detectors), it rejects only the
specific value of ground in which you are searching, which means you
have to adjust precisely. To facilitate the ground balance (essential in
this program), pressing
will make an immediate acquisition of the
ground value within one or 2 pumps of the coil.
In this program a few settings are not active or are replaced by the
other specific setting such as:
- The IAR discrimination (Iron Amplitude Rejection): A range of
discrimination can be applied from 0 to 5. It applies only to targets
that produce strong signals – typically shallow ferrous items. It will
not reject deeper targets which may come across as ferrous when
they are buried in mineralised ground to ensure good targets are not
rejected by mistake.
- Immediate acquisition of the ground value (Grab) is performed simply
by pressing
(while pumping the coil to & from the ground).
The display of conductivity is kept, this advantage allows to
work in All Metals mode with visual recognition (valid on shallow targets).

Do not switch on Dēus when the coil is near metal, inside a car, or when the stem is collapsed,
as this may interfere with calibration and lead to abnormal performance. If this should occur, switch Dēus
off and move away from any metal masses before switching it on again. Nevertheless, this does not
represent any risk to the equipment or its electronics. But may give abnormal results !

Increasing the discrimination value enables you to gradually reject any
target whose conductivity is lower than the setting. For example, if you
tune the discrimination level to 10, you will reject iron with a value of
between 0 and 10. If you tune it to 40 you will also eliminate small
pieces of aluminium foil whose conductivity is less than 40.
If you wish to reject other rubbish with higher conductivity, such as pull
tabs from aluminium drinks cans, lead shot or copper hunting cartridges
(whose conductivity is 60-75), you must also be prepared to accept the
elimination of certain good metals with similar conductivity.
If you are particularly bothered by contamination registering as highly
conductive on the digital screen, and you still wish to reject it, it is better
to do so using the NOTCH rejection setting.
Two alternatives involve selecting a low level of discrimination, between
5 and 10, then using either:
1/ The digital target display to more or less visually discriminate a target
category.
2/ The Multi-tone mode to discriminate undesirable targets using a selected
audio tone.
In both cases the decision then lies with you on whether or not to dig.

Depending on the frequency setting used, a target’s conductivity
is perceived differently by the detector. The digital conductivity display
may therefore vary depending on the frequency.

The program N°10 GOLD FIELD uses another discrimination method,
called IAR (Iron Amplitude Rejection): the range of discrimination
can be applied from 0 to 5. It applies only to targets that produce strong
signals – typically shallow ferrous items. It will not reject deeper targets
which may come across as ferrous when they are buried in mineralised
ground, to ensure good targets are not rejected by mistake.
Higher discrimination values, enable the detector to reject deeper ferrous.
The gold nuggets (buried deeper in mineralised ground) generate a similar
signal than a ferrous, so in this case it is better to reduce the level of discrimination.

Sensitivity is often simplistically described as the setting which adjusts
the device’s power level. However this is incorrect. As its name indicates,
it actually determines the device’s sensitivity level. It reacts after receiving
a signal via the receiver coil. Nevertheless, the results are somewhat similar
in practice, as increasing a device’s sensitivity enables it to detect the
presence of more distant targets. However it must be noted that this
setting has no effect on the power emitted.
The most commonly used sensitivity levels range from 70 to 90. It may be
necessary to reduce the level if there is too much interference, as is often
the case near overhead or buried power lines, fences, radio-relay stations,
mobile telephones, computers, televisions, etc.
Do not test your device in your home as there is considerable electromagnetic
and metal interference in urban environments.

EXPERT
Dēus gives you the choice of four detection frequencies (4 kHz, 8 kHz,
12 kHz and 18 kHz) which cover most detection needs.
They enable you to adapt your research more closely to the characteristics
of the ground and the targets to be detected.
Here is a non-exhaustive list of the most likely targets that may be detected according to
the frequency:
4 kHz
Large, mainly ferrous and non-ferrous masses.
Coins of sufficient conductivity and size.
All other medium or relatively small targets in non-mineralised ground relatively
uncontaminated by iron.
Good for ferrous masses and militaria.
8 kHz
General use.
Coins and large masses, militaria.
Medium and small targets in low-mineralised ground.
12 kHz
General use, small coins.
Coins of all sizes in medium to highly mineralised ground.
18 kHz
Small coins made from any alloy (gold, silver, copper, etc.) and bigger but very fine coins,
low conductivity gold coins, lead, rings, sheet metal, aluminium foil.
Small objects can be found even on mineralised ground contaminated with iron.
Discriminates (distinguishes) coke more easily.
More unstable on non-mineralised and moist ground.
If you are just starting out, the 8 kHz frequency is a good compromise
for general use. On a wet beach the 18 kHz frequency will be better at
finding small gold jewellery such as chain necklaces and bracelets that are
usually so difficult to detect.

You have the option of controlling the sound volume of the low-pitched
tone which generally corresponds to iron. Depending on the circumstances,
this enables more attention to be paid to other sounds, by reducing those
generated by iron.
On the other hand, some users prefer that the low-pitched signals from
iron are more audible, as they know that good targets at the detector’s
range limit in mineralised ground sometimes generate low amplitude,
low-pitched sounds.
- At 0 the low-pitched tone is cut off.
- At 5 the low-pitched tone will have a sound level equivalent to other medium
- or high-pitched tones.
If the discrimination threshold is too low, 0 or 2 for example,
most iron will generate not low- but medium-pitched tones, as you will
practically be in the All Metals mode. In this case, the iron level setting
will not be of much use.

The Reactivity is a vital setting that determines the detector’s performance
in terms of how quickly it analyses the signal from detected objects
and its ability to separate the signals from two targets located close
together. This is also known as Recovery Time.
If a soil contains a great deal of iron, hot rocks or other mineralised
debris, soil penetration is generally reduced.
In these conditions, Dēus enables you to select a high degree of reactivity
which will help you speed up the analysis of signals.
On the other hand, if the ground is "clean", it is better to reduce the
Reactivity and sweep more slowly, in order to be more sensitive to deep
masses and obtain more thorough penetration.
Users familiar with the Gold Maxx Power have already had a foretaste
of the Reactivity (recovery speed) of XP’s detectors. And even though Dēus is
a particularly fast and selective detector, you now have the option of
adjusting the reactivity setting to make it even more selective!
By way of example, and to help you better understand the reactivity
levels available, you should note that the reactivity of most detectors
on the market is generally only equivalent to level 1 of the Dēus.
The Gold Maxx Power has a reactivity equivalent to level 2 of the Dēus.
Most likely finds with the recommended settings are as follows:
4/5
Large masses and coins, in ground uncontaminated by iron.
Large masses and coins, in ground with little iron contamination,
and general use.
General use, and mineralised soils contaminated with iron.
Difficult soils contaminated with iron, hot rocks, etc.
Very difficult soils, highly contaminated with iron and hot rocks.

Example
Passing the coil over an iron object close to
the surface then over a good metal target
(ring).
With a low Reactivity level, the iron is detected
for a longer duration, to the extent that it
completely hides the ring.
No sound
With a medium Reactivity level, you begin
detecting the ring.
The audio signal partially indicates the target.
Short sound
A high Reactivity level enables you to
distinguish the ring completely from the iron.
The audio signal fully indicates the target.
Full sound
In terms of pure performance, the greatest detection ranges are obtained with low reactivity
levels. However, you will find more targets and will be deeper on mineralised ground with
medium or high reactivity levels.
So do not just rely on performance in optimal conditions.
Depending on the reactivity level, you will notice that the length of the audio signal varies
when it passes over a target:
Low reactivity (0, 1) = long sound
High reactivity (3, 4, 5) = short sound
Evidently the length of any false signals (the crackling of iron for example) will vary proportionately
as well.
You are therefore advised not to constantly change the reactivity level, as this may interfere
with your ability to distinguish good and bad sounds.

The Notch complements the discrimination: it enables a "window" of
targets to be rejected whereas discrimination rejects all targets
below a selected threshold.
For example, if you detect a redundant, undesirable target in the
ground, you can decide just to reject the corresponding conductivity
group and continue to detect targets whose conductivity is higher and
lower than those in this group.
If the reference target has a conductivity of 37, adjust the Notch value
to 34-40 using
All targets whose conductivity is between 34 and 40 will then be silenced.

General features
The different levels of soil mineralisation you encounter when prospecting
can sometimes affect the performance of your detector.
For example, this may be due to natural magnetic mineralisation such as
iron oxide, hot rocks and magnetite, or sporadic mineralisation from sites of
former human settlement (also magnetic): hearths, pottery, hot rocks, slag,
etc. At the seashore this may also involve mineralisation ranging from
magnetic grade (black sand) to electrical conductor grade (salt water)
depending on the beach or region.
If you are an experienced detectorist you may wish to optimise your
searches to achieve better penetration in some of these mineralised soils.
In magnetic ground with relatively uniform mineralisation, a setting
which is adjusted according to the ground effect will improve penetration by
reducing the amplitude of the ground signals sent back by the receiver
circuits. This ‘adapted setting’ involves adjusting your ground balance
value to the average value of the ground being detected, while adding
1 so as not to hear the ground signals as much. The tracking and pumping
modes do this automatically if the ground conditions allow it. With the
Prog.10 Gold Field it is vital to set exactly the value of the ground.
Attention: As the ground balance setting is the one requiring the most
experience, we recommend that you read this chapter and use the
different ground balance modes carefully, while acquiring your own
experience of the ground.
By default, remain in manual mode at level 90 on inland ground and on
dry beach sand. On wet beach reduce the level from 25 to 27.
If the ground is not mineralised (see below the bargraph : Mineralisation strength) there is no need to adjust your ground balance to a level
other than 90: since the ground does not send back any significant
spurious echo, the performance will be optimal even at level 90 and you
will reduce interference resulting from knocks to the coil.
On the main menu, two values are permanently displayed:

Each ground rejection level from 60 to 95 receives additional units of fine

90 is the default level, it is the most common level which enables you to
reject all magnetic minerals found in the ground.
By reducing G.B towards 87 you will begin detecting hot rocks, and knocks
to the coil may result in false signals. Even lower, between 75/85, pottery
and the ground itself will begin interfering with your device.
If you are inexperienced in working with ground effects, we strongly
suggest that you limit yourself to a Ground Balance level of 90, which is
the default setting, and is the most stable reference level recommended
for inland ground. Levels lower than 90 will result in increasing instability.

Pumping is a semi-automatic process which allows you to adjust the ground
balance in a zone that you have determined as being representative of the
mean level of the ground being prospected.
Henceforth, the measured value of the ground is entered in memory and
used as the new active ground balance value.
If this value is unsuitable, or if it generates too much instability, you can
repeat the process in a different zone or switch to manual mode adding
several extra rejection points.

In this mode, Dēus repeatedly scans the ground and digitally filters
the extracted signals to determine the mean value on a continual basis.
This mode may be useful in soils with relatively uniform mineralisation,
and where the mineralisation varies gradually from zone to zone,
which is often the case in naturally mineralised ground. In this
case, Dēus automatically readjusts the ground balance according
to the most recent value measured.
However, in ground where mineralisation has resulted from human
presence (ancient settlements, for example) this mode may be unsuitable
due to ever changing ground conditions.
Indeed, within the same sweep of just one meter, a considerable variety

Pairing the remote control and the headphones with a new coil
If you purchase an additional coil, you need to pair it with the remote control and
the headphones the first time you use it, to enable Dēus to recognise and communicate
with it. You can then switch between coils just with a simple click via the remote control.
To pair a new coil you have to give it a name (e.g: "34cm Coil") and enter its serial number
in the remote control and headphones. The serial number is printed on the coil and is
sometimes found on the invoice as well.
- Before you pair a new coil, turn on the headphones and remote control.

Always leave the headphones switched on when you are changing the coil
via the remote control, otherwise they will not register the change and
will remain connected to the previous coil. If this should occur, use the
remote control to return to the previous coil (with the headphones switched

Remember that before you can use a new coil for the first time, you need to
enter its serial number in the headphones and remote control (pg 24/30).
Pairing the Headphones with a new Coil
When delivered, the headphones and remote control have already been paired
with the original coil, so no action is required on your part.
However, if you purchase an additional coil, before using it for the first time
you need to pair it with the remote control and the headphones, to enable it
to recognise and communicate with them.
You can then change coils with a simple click using the remote control (pg 23)

If you leave the headphones switched on when you pair the remote control
with a new coil, they are also paired with this new coil, which is then added
automatically to the list in the headphones menu (pg 24).

The search coil, remote control and headphones are all powered by identical
lithium polymer batteries. These miniature, high-capacity batteries can be
recharged quickly. The different Dēus elements can be charged while switched
on or off, but switching them off speeds up the process.
You should use the power adaptor supplied, which enables all three elements
to be charged simultaneously when used with the USB/3 mini-B cable, also
supplied.

The LiPo batteries are designed to bear hundreds of charges and to last several
years in your detector, thus resulting in significant savings in terms of purchase
of batteries.
After 300 to 400 charging cycles the battery still has 80% of its capacity, which
then gradually begins to decrease over subsequent cycles.
As an indication, the batteries should last for around 3 to 4 years when used on
a weekly basis.
Attention: long-term storage of discharged batteries may reduce their overall
durability. If the detector has to be placed in storage, first charge the batteries to
half of their capacity (40 to 70%).
Ideally you should then discharge/recharge them at least once a month.
Do not store your device for long periods with discharged batteries!
REPLACING BATTERIES
The three Dēus batteries are identical.
The batteries for the wireless headphones and the remote control are easy to
replace as they are connected to the circuit with a mini-connector and double-sided
adhesive tape.
The search coil battery is sealed for obvious reasons of safety and impermeability.
It must be returned to our service department or an XP distributor for replacement.
How to replace the coil battery:
www.xpmetaldetectors.com/videos/uk/47/018-deus-battery-kit
The batteries are guaranteed 2 years parts and labour.

PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO USE OF THE POWER ADAPTOR AND BATTERY
Acceptable ambient temperature during charging: 0° to 35°C Maximum
Recommended storage temperature: 25°C
Batteries
The batteries are fitted with internal protection systems which shield them from
extreme overloads and discharges. They must not be dismantled or short-circuited,
which is dangerous and could destroy the protection systems or cause the batteries
to ignite.
Do not leave batteries charging unnecessarily and disconnect the power adaptor
when the charge cycle is complete or after 3hrs.
If you notice any perforation, odour or other anomaly, please return the battery
to the seller in a sealed plastic bag and don't try to charge again.
Never dispose of lithium batteries with your household waste: return them to
your XP seller or take them to a designated collection point.
Do not place the batteries near heat sources and never throw them onto a fire
Never perforate the battery cover or try and weld/solder the battery.
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals.
Risk off explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replacing the battery with another of the incorrect type can lead to an explosion
risk. Only use LiPo batteries supplied by XP (ref : D088).
Power adaptor
The power adaptor is only designed for indoor use and should not be exposed
to water or humidity.
Always connect your power adaptor in an accessible, visible place to ensure that
it can be unplugged quickly in the event of overheating or other problems.
Use the special XP chargers in the recommended charging method to charge
the battery, do not use other charger, that will cause the battery internal
short-circuit and make it heat, smoke or burn.
Do not charge the devices during a thunderstorm and unplug the power adaptor
from the supply.
Do not charge close to inflammable parts.
Xplorer shall not be held liable for any consequences arising from a failure to comply with
the precautions for use.

You can use the Multi-tones menu to sort targets into categories according
to their conductivity, by assigning a specific audio tone to each category.
The higher the target’s conductivity, the higher the pitch of the tone.
Take some time to become familiar with the 2 Tones, 3 Tones, 4 Tones, 5 Tones
modes using different targets, such as an iron nail and some aluminium
foil, different coins, etc.
The lowest pitched tone is assigned to iron. If you do not wish to hear it,
select “Iron Volume” from the menu and reduce its volume to 0.
If you are in 2 Tones mode (low/medium tone) and you reduce
the iron level (low-pitched tone) to 0, you then find yourself in 1 tone
mode (medium), which is why there is no 1 tone mode in this scrolling
menu.

Pitch mode is completely different from the others. It does not take into
account the target’s conductivity: the strength of the signal generates an
audio signal that varies both in amplitude and height (the audio frequency).
This means that a more distant target will generate a low-pitched, weak
sound whereas a closer target will generate a high-pitched, strong sound.
Pitch mode gives signals particular "characteristics" and can be useful for
locating targets.
It also makes the detector seem more reactive. However, it does not
fundamentally affect reactivity, just the audio.
The range of setting can be changed with

from 150 to 603 Hz.
FULL TONES
The FULL TONES discrimination mode will produce a slightly different
tone for each target ID value. The higher the target’s conductivity and
hence the target ID value, the higher the tone will be. Iron typically
will produce a low tone, while silver produces a high tone. See the

A sound frequency (comparatively low or high-pitched) is assigned to
each part of the discrimination range. In this example, a low-pitched
sound (202 Hz) is assigned to the signals from 0 to 10, a higher-pitched
sound (518 Hz) is assigned to the part from 10 to 60, then 644 Hz is
assigned to 60 to 87 and lastly a very high-pitched sound (725Hz) is
assigned to the part from 87 to 99.

TX POWER
By default the power is set to level 2, which offers a very dependable
performance level that is largely sufficient in most cases.
The power only has a subtle effect on the device’s pure performance with
regard to sensitivity. However, it increases your detector’s power consumption
as well as alter its stability on difficult ground.
On iron-infested, mineralised ground, there is no need to use a high power
setting, level 1 will be sufficient as in any case it is impossible to detect
deeply in this kind of ground.
It is therefore better to limit the saturation caused by iron and the ground
by lowering the setting. In this way you will improve analysis and will
ultimately find as many, if not more, targets since you will be better able
to hear them.

Wherever possible, remain on the central frequency, which is more
closely attuned to the emitter coil. During a rally or other group event,
if you suffer from any interference do not hesitate to shift the frequency.
You can also simply change the basic frequency (4, 8, 12, 18kHz).

A few large iron objects or unusual shapes are often more difficult
to discriminate. Often iron objects generate a few audible remnants
of broken, or inconsistent signals (crackling). When you increase
the silencer you are applying a filter which eliminates the crackling
caused by ferrous. Level 2 represents a good compromise, but if
you have difficulty to distinguish bottle caps, use level 4.
The Reactivity menu takes precedence over the silencer,
so if you change the reactivity value this automatically imposes an
appropriate silencer value. This is designed to avoid the silencer being
set to a value that could reduce the effectiveness of the reactivity setting.

This advanced notch function enables you to widen the rejection
window in the event that the undesirable target(s) have a wider conductivity
range than the standard 6-point window.
For example, if the undesirable target is generating a ID ranging
from 28 to 46, you can use this option to lower the value of Threshold
1 to 28 and increase Threshold 2 to 46.

NOTCH GROUND
The Notch complements the ground balance settings : it enables a
"window" of ground values to be rejected rather than rejecting all
the ground values below the setting. You can for example adjust
the ground balance on the value of the prospected ground (eg: 78),
then reject the false signals due to hot-rocks by adjusting the
NOTCH GROUND between 83-90 only, thus you will not reject the
ground value from 78 to 83.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Metal detecting is a fascinating leisure activity that can bring you a lot of satisfaction.
However, it requires a minimum of learning in order to get the most enjoyment.
Begin by familiarising yourself with your equipment and its operation on a suitable practice ground.
To do this, we recommend that you take an assortment of different objects: coins, everyday
items, metal rubbish, etc. Then find a patch of ground relatively free from metal pollution and far
away from any electromagnetic interference (high voltage power lines, electric fences, domestic
appliances, etc.). For instance your garden would probably be one of the most unsuitable places
to begin as there is too much domestic waste in the vicinity.
To ensure that the site is suitable for practising, swing the coil over the ground as if detecting.
If you hear a multitude of sounds then move to another place.
Once you have found a suitable spot, arrange your objects on the ground, spacing them approximately
two coil widths apart. Before placing an object, use the device to check that there is no metal
already in the ground.
Then, take some time to observe your device’s reactions when it passes over each target. You can
then sort them according to the sound response type and try and understand what makes them
similar or different. If you feel comfortable with this exercise, you can also try out some of the
pre-configured settings.
When detecting, it is important that you sweep the coil parallel to the ground, using wide movements,
as close as possible to the surface (without actually touching it). Proximity to the ground will increase
the likelihood of detecting a deep target and will enable the most discreet objects to be identified
more easily. You are advised to avoid knocking the coil, as although it is designed to tolerate this kind of
stress, careful treatment will prolong the life of the device and guarantee you better perception of targets.
CORRECT
INCORRECT
41
When you are detecting, you are free to choose the rate at which you move.
For example, if you prefer to cover a zone at high speed while detecting, this will certainly give you
a global ‘snapshot’ of the site. However, it is clear that this way of detecting will also leave large
areas of ground unexplored between each sweep. On the other hand, if you insist on closely
scrutinising every inch of the ground, you should ensure that each sweep slightly overlaps the
previous one, in order to reduce to a minimum the area that your coil has not scanned.
You should also bear in mind that you will further increase your chances of finding and identifying
a target by sweeping more slowly. This particularly applies in metal-infested ground (when there
are more targets to be sorted) or when you are searching for deeper targets.
Once the detector has indicated the approximate presence of a target in Motion mode, if you are
having difficulty locating the target then sweep the place where you heard the sound.
Slowly reduce the amplitude of your movements and make a mental note of the spot where the
sound is loudest. If necessary, indicate it with a mark on the ground. Then move a quarter turn
around the spot and begin sweeping again in the same way (at 90° to the first sweep).
You should then locate the precise zone containing your target at the intersection of the two
sweeps, where the sound is loudest.
Continue with crossed sweeps over the target. The loudest and highest pitched audio signal
indicates the centre of the coil and therefore the position of the target.

Dēus is a precision device, designed to be as robust as possible. Despite this, it is important to take
care of it and exercise certain precautions in order to prolong its life:
Do not store your device for long periods with discharged batteries.
Ideally you should discharge/recharge the batteries at least once a month, and
if possible store them 40 to 70% charged.
Do not expose your detector to extreme temperatures, particularly inside a car
in full sun.
Do not expose your detector to the sun without reason when it is not being used.
When you switch on the detector ensure that the coil is not near any metal objects.
The remote control of your detector is not waterproof. In wet weather be sure to
protect it !
Use the storage case that is supplied with the headphones and never carry them
at the bottom of a bag without protection.
Use the case that is supplied with the remote control to protect it in adverse
conditions, and when the detector is stored away.
Do not use solvents or alcohol to clean the detector. Soapy water is sufficient.
Depending on how you use your detector, it may be advisable to clean its
elements regularly. A damp cloth can be used to clean the non-waterproof parts
(headphones and remote control).
After use, remove any dirt from the stem’s locking mechanisms.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO DETECTORISTS / THE LAW
Detecting is an activity which, like other leisure activities, requires a few general
guidelines. These recommendations will enable everyone to enjoy their hobby to the
full while respecting laws, places, the environment and other people.
Ensure you are informed of current legislation relating to discovery of treasure in order
to abide by the law.
Declare any fortuitous archaeological discoveries to the local authorities (town hall) of
the discovery site within 48 hours.
Before prospecting on a site, obtain permission from its owner(s) or guardian(s).
Respect the natural environment in which you are prospecting and any other places to
which you need access.
Systematically back-fill any holes you make so as to leave a site exactly how you
found it.
Keep any rubbish you find in order to dispose of it in a dustbin.
Avoid detecting in areas where battles are known to have taken place during
wartime.
Exercise extreme caution with any suspect object resembling munitions, grenades,
mines, shells, bombs, etc. and notify the relevent authorities (police, local
authorities, etc.) of any such object you find.
Remember that you are an ambassador for metal detecting and it is important that
you convey a positive image!

Safety relating to electromagnetic radio waves
This product complies with standards for user safety with regard to electromagnetic waves.
The strength of the radio signals used is considerably weaker and on a much smaller scale than
those emitted by mobile telephones (2,000 to 4,000 times weaker), as well as being much
less than those used by Wi-Fi systems.
Moreover, when the complete system is used, the audio headphones only act as a passive radio
receiver.
WARNING
The accessories delivered with these detectors may vary, and similarly the menus and certain
features described in this manual may differ slightly from the product purchased.
This detector is not suitable for applications involving the search for dangerous targets such as
munitions, mines, etc.
