Maklumat Keselamatan
Amaran Keselamatan Penting:
- Sensing depth and accuracy can vary due to factors such as moisture content of materials, wall texture, and paint. Always exercise caution.
- Calibration is essential before each use. Ensure proper calibration for accurate readings.
- In wood mode, do not release the side button during detection to maintain continuous scanning.
- The detector must be re-calibrated when scanning a different region or on different walls to ensure consistent accuracy.
- The device indicates live AC wires in all modes. Always be aware of this warning to prevent drilling into electrical wires.
- Use this tool on interior dry walls only. It is not applicable to stone or metal walls or low-density plasterboard.

Menyelesaikan masalah
If you encounter issues with your PREXISO Stud Finder, consider the following common solutions:
| Masalah | Kemungkinan Punca | Penyelesaian |
|---|---|---|
| Inaccurate readings or inconsistent detection. | Improper calibration, wall conditions (moisture, texture, paint), or low battery. | Ensure proper calibration before each scan. Re-calibrate when moving to a new area or wall. Check wall conditions; allow freshly painted walls to dry. Replace the battery if low. |
| Peranti tidak dihidupkan. | Bateri mati atau tidak dipasang dengan betul. | Check battery installation and replace with a fresh 9V battery. |
| No detection in stud mode. | Side button not held during scan, or wall material is unsuitable. | Ensure the side button is continuously pressed while scanning in stud mode. Confirm the wall is interior dry wall, not stone, metal, or low-density plasterboard. |
| False AC wire warnings. | Interference from other electrical sources or device proximity to outlets. | Scan slowly and confirm the signal. Be aware that the device indicates AC wires in all modes. |
