Problems	Possible Causes	Possible Solutions
False signals	Electromagnetic interference (EMI) Extreme humidity Sensitivity set too high Sweeping too fast or wrong angle Multiple metal detectors used in close proximity	Move to a different search area Reduce sensitivity Sweep slowly, keeping the coil level and 1 – 2 inches (2.5– 5 cm) from the ground Keep metal detectors at least 20 ft. (6 m) apart
Erratic/multiple signals	Multiple targets Highly mineralized soil	Reduce sensitivity Move to a different search area
Detector fails to detect anything	Sensitivity set too low Target-ID is filtered out Search coil at wrong angle	Increase sensitivity Re-enable that target-ID in DISC mode Adjust search coil to be parallel with the ground
Detector does not function at all	Flat battery Disconnected search coil cable	Charge the battery Reconnect the search coil cable plug into the DIN connector
