Step 2: Scan the wall

Hold down the button, then move the stud finder along the wall slowly. You should re-calibrate it when the scanner gets a shake or lift accidentally

The narrow on the screen together with the beep signal changing, would direct you to find the exact location of the targets.

Tips: If the scanning doesn’t work well, please switch to a proper depth mode, re-calibrate and scanning again for a better location

Step 3: Find the location of the stud

When the signal bar is full and the beep alarm is loudest, it means you find the center of an object. Mark it with your pencil.

Then you can switch to the Metal Scan mode to test whether it is a metal. You could also confirm the metal with the magnet at bottom of this device. If not a metal, it indicates that you find the center of a stud. Then you can drill it to hang something

Tips: For a more accurate metal location range, you can re-calibrate the device at the edge you’ve marked and then scan again.
