Use it in preset programs for a while before you start tweaking programs,get used to the detector first , a great old detector gets decent depth and accurate id on good targets,if target id bounces around broadly it’s likely trash but can be occasionally a coin on edge also if it’s getting coin readings and trash readings back and fourth,I’d recommend dig everything the first few days of using and you will learn what tones and vdi numbers to dig or not to dig

I received the battery compartment that holds 8 AA batteries, The unit is dead. Took the unit apart and it appears it was left outside for a while. Found a dirt and corrosion in the control box.
Check the battery prongs on the circuit board they break off and also bend inwards and battery doesn’t make contact also check the ribbon (wire) connection box and screen you can carefully unhook them and check for corrosion,pick up a can of contact cleaner from auto parts store and spray really good and let dry before trying just be careful and not get any on the painted surfaces it will eat the paint off
