you can apply additional cycles to a continually resisting subject, if needed, without deploying any of the
remaining cartridges. Holding the ARC switch down continually will arc the ECD until the ARC switch is released
or the EPM is depleted, whichever happens first.
Because the ARC switch is ambidextrous, you can press from either side as you hold the ECD in a two-handed
grip.

Trigger Functions
WARNING
In the event of an unintentional discharge, immediately shift the CAM-Lock Safety to the down (SAFE)
position to stop the discharge cycle.
In manual mode, after the first cartridge is deployed, pulling the trigger again will apply additional energy
through the wires to the probes. Unlike with the semi-automatic mode, this will not deploy additional cartridges.
Also, pressing and holding the ARC switch will supply energy to deployed cartridges without discharging un-
deployed cartridges. It is recommended to always press and hold the ARC switch when you need to re-energize
deployed cartridges without expending additional cartridges.
After deploying a cartridge, you can press and release (quickly tap once) the ARC switch to select another
cartridge to use. You do not have to wait for the cycle of the first cartridge to end before deploying a new
cartridge.
