1 Operating Elements and Connections

1 LED for indicating any metal detected; lights up
shortly with small metal objects and longer with
larger objects
2 3.5 mm jack CHARGER & EARPHONE for con-
necting stereo headphones or earphones, as an
alternative to connecting a 12 V power supply unit
for charging if a rechargeable NiCd or NiMH bat-
tery is used (tip of the plug = positive pole); the
power supply unit must deliver a minimum current
of 10 mA
3 DESENSITIZE button for reducing the sensitivity;
as long as the button is pressed, the sensitivity is
reduced by approx. 50 %
4 Trimming potentiometer for adjusting the sensitivity
(concealed under the rubber sheath)
5 Handle covered with rubber sheath
6 Carrying strap
7 Buzzer; will be switched off when using the head-
phone jack (2)
8 Function switch
VIBRATION = indication of metal by vibration
AUDIO
OFF
9 Battery compartment cover

2 Safety Notes

This unit corresponds to the directive for electromag-
netic compatibility 89/336/EEC.
The unit is not weatherproof. Protect it against drip-
ping water and splash water, high air humidity, and
extreme temperatures (admissible ambient temper-
ature range 0 – 40 °C).
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use
chemicals or water.
No guarantee claims for the unit and no liability for
any resulting personal damage or material damage
will be accepted if the unit is used for other purposes
than originally intended, if it is not correctly connect-
ed, operated, or not repaired in an expert way.
If the unit is to be put out of operation de-
finitively, take it to a local recycling plant for
a disposal which is not harmful to the envi-
ronment.

3 Application
The SMD-10 serves for detecting metal objects, e. g.
when checking persons for security reasons. If a metal
object is detected, an LED will light up and in addition
an audio signal will sound or the handle will vibrate. A
jack for operating the unit with headphones or ear-
phones is also provided. Alternatively, this jack can be
used for charging a rechargeable NiCd or NiMH bat-
tery inserted. It is possible to temporarily reduce the
sensitivity by pressing a button.

4 Operation

4.1 Inserting the battery
1) Open the battery compartment cover (9) by sliding
it to the right as indicated in the figure.
2) Insert a 9 V battery or a rechargeable 9 V battery
with the positive and negative poles as indicated on
the battery compartment cover.
3) Close the battery compartment with the battery
compartment cover.
4.2 Recharging the battery
When using a rechargeable NiCd or NiMH battery in-
stead of a battery, it may be charged in the unit via the
jack CHARGER & EARPHONE (2). Usually, recharge-
able batteries must be charged before first use.
1) Switch off the unit with the function switch (8) [posi-
tion OFF].
2) Connect the 3.5 mm plug of a regulated 12 V power
supply unit to the jack CHARGER & EARPHONE
(2). Observe the correct polarity (tip of the plug =
positive pole). The power supply unit should be
able to deliver a minimum current of 10 mA (e. g.
MONACOR PS-500ST).
3) Connect the power supply unit to a mains socket.
4) Charge the rechargeable battery for a minimum of
14 hours, depending on the capacity of the type
used.
5) After charging, disconnect the power supply unit
from the mains socket first, then from the metal
detector.
Note: To ensure that rechargeable NiCd batteries will
preserve their full capacity for a long time, it is recom-
mended to fully discharge them from time to time prior
to recharging.
WARNING Never try to charge rechargeable bat-
teries of types other than NiCd or NiMH
or non-rechargeable batteries (e. g. alka-
line batteries) in the unit. They might
explode!
Dead batteries or defective rechargeable
batteries do not belong in the household
rubbish; always take them to a special
waste disposal (e. g. collecting container
at your retailer).
