3. Nature of Detection Device Performance

Important Disclaimer: Metal, gold, and water detection devices are auxiliary technical tools, not precision measuring instruments. Their results depend on several factors:

  • Soil composition and geological conditions of the target area
  • Operator skill, experience, and familiarity with the device
  • Proper setup, calibration, and configuration per the user manual
  • Environmental factors (humidity, temperature, electromagnetic interference)

 

MWF Detectors does not guarantee specific field results in all environments. Failure to locate targets or obtain results does not constitute a technical malfunction and is not covered under this warranty.

The warranty period begins from the date of electronic registration of the device through the official MWF Detectors website. Registration is a mandatory requirement to activate warranty services and technical support.

The device must be registered within 14 days of confirmed delivery. If registration is not completed within this period, the device will be subject to technical inspection only upon a malfunction claim, and the owner will not benefit from full warranty services.

C. Pre-Delivery Inspection

All devices are technically inspected and tested before shipping or delivery to verify their technical integrity and compliance with approved specifications. This inspection serves as evidence of the device’s condition upon leaving MWF Detectors facilities.
