SAFARI DISCRIMINATION TUTORIAL # 2
To create and save a user mode (personal setting)
A tiny “stick man” icon will appear next to the mode button when the changes are saved as a personal setting.
1. Select the Factory Pre-Set detect mode you would like to change.
2. Modify the discrimination pattern as outlined previously.
3. Press and hold the mode button for about three seconds until the SAVED message appears on screen.
4. When the mode is saved the stick man icon will appear next to the mode button that had been pressed. You
can save your personal pre-set mode in any of the four pre-set locations. Once a user mode is saved, just
press the mode button to revert to the factory setting or toggle back and forth between the two settings.

Power Options
Your new Minelab Safari comes with an alkaline holder which takes eight 1.5V pen-light cells.
Ensure you buy good quality alkaline batteries. You can expect up to 14 hours of operation from a new set. Wearing
headphones extends the life of the cells quite a bit. You can also purchase as recommended Minelab accessory
items a mains wall charger and a NiMH 1600/1800 mAH rechargeable cell. This may be a worthy investment if you
plan on using your new Safari quite often. Expected battery life can be greater with the 1800 mAH with upwards of
16 hours use possible. Please follow instructions and guidelines for proper care of NiMH battery cells.
Coil
Yes, other coils can be used with Safari.
The Safari uses an 11” DD coil as standard. This coil has already been introduced to the Explorer and E-Trac series
of detectors with great success and glowing tributes. The coil is both lightweight and waterproof but is still really
durable. Allied to the new longer lower shaft, it means that it is easy to use and it also gives the machine a good
balanced feel when in the field. Depth is really impressive and the pinpointing is sharp too which is helped by the
physical nature of the coil with the cross supports creating an identifiable centre point.
The smaller Minelab FBS 8” coil can be used without having to make any adjustments. In fact, the use of small coils
is encouraged on junky coin-shooting sites. Another tip would be to always remove and clean the coil cover after a
few detecting sessions, especially after immersing the coil in salt water. This can help in reducing the chances of false
signals occurring.
FIELD APPRAISAL
The Safari has four operating modes and in reality any of the four modes can be used in most applications. However,
the Coins mode would be a good mode setting to start with, if new to the Safari detector. This has some in-built
discrimination against most iron, foil and light aluminum.
If you find that you would like to increase, or decrease, the amount of discrimination just follow the easy steps
outlined above in the Modifying/Saving tutorial. The learning curve for this detector is really short and compared to
other detectors is really quick to pick up on as well. Just press the Power button, pick a mode and that’s it…it’s really
quick. You will find that targets will give a range of sounds varying in pitch from a low sound to a high squeal. In Coins
mode, on the beach or in coin shooting areas, coins (modern and many older ones) will give a high pitched sound.
The opposite may happen on some older sites you visit. Some of the older, thinner, low grade collectible
