R When the handset searches for the key detector, the handset emits the
detection beeps and displays the signal strength (5 levels) and level value
(1 – 100), and then the key detector emits responding beeps. As you point
the handset in the right direction and then move closer to the item:
–Handset:  the frequency of the detection beeps will increase and a higher
signal strength and level value will be displayed.
– Key detector:  the responding beeps are emitted during searching.
R The search is stopped after 3 minutes. To continue searching, repeat from
step 3.
R While searching, you can turn off the handset detection beeps by pressing

							Note:
R
Onl y
 one handset can search for a key detector. Other handsets cannot search
at the same time.
R The volume of the detection beeps and responding beeps cannot be changed. Range guidelines
R
The  

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
R
Pla c

e the key detector away from the handset and practice locating it a few
times to get a feel for how it works.
R If 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.
R When the level value reaches 70 – 90, we recommend you turn off the handset
detection beeps by pressing  MMUTE N and listen for the responding beeps from
the key detector.
R When 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.
– refrain from using other wireless appliances.
R If you are close to a wall and getting a strong signal, check the room next door.
R If error messages are displayed, try moving to a different area. Checking the battery
