8. Important operating tips
For optimum scanning results, it is important to properly hold the device
and move slowly when scanning. The following tips will provide more
accurate scanning results:

do not touch the surface or the scanning head being scanned.
•
Hold the device steadily, parallel to the studs, and do not rotate
the device.
Keep the device flat against the wall, and slowly slide it across
•
the scanned surface, do not rock, tilt, or press hard the device.
•
Avoid placing your other hand, or any other part of your body, on
the surface being scanned. This will interfere with the
performance of the device.
•
If you receive irregular scanning results, it may be a result of
humidity, moisture within the wall cavity or drywall, or recently
applied paint or wallpaper that hasn't fully dried. While the
moisture may not always be visible, it will interfere with the
device's sensors. Please allow a few days for the wall to dry out.
•
Depending on how close the wires or pipes are to the wall
surface, the device may detect them in the same way as studs.
Caution should always be used when nailing, cutting, or drilling in
walls, floors, and ceilings that may contain these items.
