WARNING - MANUAL SAFETY
Placing the safety in an intermediate
position between “safe” and “fire” can result
in the user thinking the pistol is in a safe or
fire position when it is not. Pulling the
trigger with the safety in an intermediate
position may cause the pistol to fire.
Therefore, always move the safety fully
to its
intended position and then check to be sure
it is where you want it to be. Unless the
white dot is fully visible, the safety is not
“ON.” Unless the red dot is fully visible, the
pistol is not absolutely ready to fire.
NEVER PUT SAFETY 1/2 ON
