Is the device waterproof?
The device is splash and water-resistant but not completely waterproof, so avoid prolonged exposure to water.

PRODUCT FEATURES

MultiScanner®

740 quickly and easily locates studs and joists behind walls, floors, and ceilings. It also locates metal as well as live AC electrical wiring. The ultrabright display screen, dual SpotLite® Pointing System, and audio tone all indicate the location of the target. The signal strength indicator helps to distinguish between shallow and deep targets.

StudScan mode locates the center, edges, and direction of wood or metal studs up to 3⁄4 in. (19 mm) deep
DeepScan® mode doubles the scanning depth to 11⁄2 in. (38 mm)
Metal Scan mode locates non-ferrous metal, such as copper pipe, up to 11⁄2 in. (38 mm) deep, and ferrous metal, such as rebar, up to 3 in. (76 mm) deep
AC Scan mode finds and traces live, unshielded electrical wire up to 2 in. (51 mm) deep
WireWarning® Detection indicates the presence of live, unshielded electrical wire up to 2 in. (51 mm) deep in stud and metal scan modes
ACT™ (Auto Correcting Technology) corrects common errors automatically, such as when scanning begins over a stud
Unique floating-head design keeps the scanning head flat on rough surfaces
Integrated, erasable marker allows for one-handed operation
