LOADING THE PISTOL
After loading your Magazine, insert it into the bottom of the pistol handle and push it into the pistol as far as possible.
When fully inserted, the Magazine Catch will hook over the bottom of the Magazine and hold it in its proper position.
Take the pistol in one hand with a firm grip, making sure your FINGERS are not touching the TRIGGER.
POINT YOUR PISTOL IN A SAFE DIRECTION, and then place the Safety into the fire position pull the slide as far as rear-
ward as it will go. Release the slide allowing it to go forward of its own accord. This procedure places the first cartridge
into the chamber and the gun is ready for firing. Subsequent feeding and ejecting operations are performed automati-
cally until the pistol is empty.
UNLOADING WITHOUT FIRING
Always point your pistol in a safe direction. To unload unfired cartridges move the Safety upwards into the safe posi-
tion then move the Magazine catch rearward until the Magazine can be pulled from the pistol. After the Magazine is
removed, pull the Slide to the rear to remove the cartridge from the barrel chamber. Always check the barrel visually
for the cartridges by holding the Slide back and looking into the Slide, Chamber and Magazine cavities.
HANDLING A MISFIRE WHILE SHOOTING
In case of a misfire while shooting your firearm, observe the following procedure: Keep firearm pointed at the target for
at least (30) seconds. This will allow adequate time for a delayed cartridge to fire. After at least (30) seconds and while
keeping the pistol pointed in a safe direction, unload the pistol following the unloading your pistol instructions.
Remember to remove the magazine before ejecting the chambered round.
