Owner’s Manual 2016

12
x Be sure of your target and backstop, particularly during low
light periods.
Know the range of your ammunition. Never shoot at water or at hard
objects.
x Be defensive and on guard against unsafe gun handling around
you and others.
Don’t be timid when it comes to gun safety. If you observe other shooters
violating any of these safety precautions, politely suggest safer handling
practices.
x Be certain your firearm is unloaded before cleaning.
Because so many gun accidents occur when a firearm is being cleaned,
special and extreme care should be taken to ensure that your firearm is
unloaded before disassembly, cleaning and reassembly. Keep
ammunition away from the cleaning location. Never test the mechanical
function of any firearm with live ammunition.
x Teach and supervise firearms safety to all the members of your
family, especially to children and non-shooters.
Closely supervise newcomers to the shooting sports. Encourage
enrollment in hunting and shooting safety courses.
Read and heed all warnings in this Owner’s Manual, on the
ammunition boxes and with all the accessories that you
install on your firearm.
It is your responsibility to secure the most up-to-date
information on the safe handling procedures for your FN
firearm.
FN HERSTAL and FN AMERICA, LLC assume no liability for
incidents which occur when unsafe or improper pistol
accessories or ammunition combinations are used.
