Installation
Note:
ROnly one handset can search for a key detector. Other handsets cannot search at the same time.
RThe volume of the detection beeps and responding beeps cannot be changed.
Range guidelines
RThe range of the handset and key detector under the best conditions is about 50 m (160 feet) indoors and about 200 m (650 feet) outdoors. Please note this range may be shorter when the key detector is near concrete barriers, etc.
Operating tips
RPlace the key detector away from the handset and practice locating it a few times to get a feel for how it works.
RIf you cannot figure out which room of your house the key detector was left in, first point the handset upwards to search higher floors and then point the handset downwards to search lower floors in order to check the search level. Then, start your search from the room which shows the highest search level with the doors closed.
RWhen the level value reaches 70 – 90, we recommend you turn off the handset detection beeps by pressing MMUTEN and listen for the responding beeps from the key detector.
RWhen you search for the key detector, we recommend that you:
–turn off electronic appliances such as TVs, radios, washing machines, and cleaners and search in a quiet environment.

RIf you are close to a wall and getting a strong signal, check the room next door.
RIf error messages are displayed, try moving to a different area.
