Owner’s Manual 2016

12
Because so many gun accidents occur when a firearm is being
cleaned, special and extreme care should be taken to be sure 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.
21 TEACH AND SUPERVISE FIREARMS SAFETY TO ALL
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.
22 NEVER DRINK ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES OR TAKE ANY
TYPE OF DRUGS BEFORE OR DURING SHOOTING.
Your vision, motor skills and judgment could be dangerously impaired,
making your gun handling unsafe to you and to others.
23 READ AND HEED ALL WARNINGS IN THIS OWNER’S
MANUAL, ON AMMUNITION BOXES AND WITH ALL
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.
We assume no liability for incidents that occur when unsafe or
improper pistol accessories or ammunition combinations are used.
24 PRACTICE PERIODIC MAINTENANCE, AVOID
UNAUTHORIZED SERVICING.
Your firearm is a mechanical device which will not last forever, and as
such, is subject to wear and requires periodic inspection, adjustment
and service. FN firearms should be serviced by an FN Product Service
Center or by our service facility in Columbia, South Carolina.
We cannot assume any responsibility for injuries suffered or
caused by unauthorized servicing, alterations or modifications
of FN firearms.
