How do I use a dowsing machine in White?

Question

When I try to use it, it beeps, and I don't know what button to press.

Answer 1

The Dowsing Machine does the searching for you.
There are two pointers.
The direction that the two pointers want you to walk towards will be the direction they're facing with the arrows.

lf they start to beep with a circle in the center, you are standing ON the item, so move one space over, and get it.
lf there's anything you really don't get, please comment.
Hope you find tons of stuff! ~

HOW do you get it from the ground

---

Like I said in the answer, when there is a circle on the sensor, step on tile to move out of the way, face the item (or where the position of the item is) and simply press A.
