Smart Cartridges General Instructions

Never attempt to open or modify a Smart cartridge. Tampering with a Smart cartridge could cause it to fire

or malfunction (which may result in serious injury).

Remove the Smart cartridge from the X2 CEW before inspection.

Before installing and using a Smart cartridge, inspect the blast doors for cracks. The inspection should include

checking the break seam running down the center and both sides of the front of the blast door. If the blast doors

are cracked, remove the Smart cartridge from service.

Also, inspect the Arc deflector metalized labels. Over time, the labels may show signs of wear. This is normal. If

the labels have worn away completely or fallen off, remove the Smart cartridge from service.
