Safety regulations

Never use the pistol under the influence of
drugs or alcohol, while ill or suffering other
such difficulties. These conditions can impair
your powers of judgment and reflexes.

Always think of the pistol as being loaded and
with the safety off until you have established
the opposite through the unloading procedure.

Allows keep the muzzle of the pistol in a safe
direction with all handling. A safe direction is
towards an area where there are no people,
other life forms or property that is not a
recognized target.

Never point the pistol at doors, panes of glass,
walls, concrete, stone or flat surfaces (water
included). A bullet can penetrate such surfaces
or be ricocheted in an unsafe direction.

Never aim at yourself or other life forms.

Never rely on safety mechanisms alone.
Safety mechanisms are not a substitute for
careful, correct and secure handling of the
pistol.

Always treat your pistol as if the safety
mechanisms were not functioning. The best
safety precaution is a correct, well-trained and
safe handling of the pistol.

Never shoot with a pistol which has been
penetrated by water, sand, dirt or other foreign
bodies.

Never decock the hammer by holding on to the
hammer and pulling the trigger at the same
time.

Never let a loaded pistol out of your hand.

Always unload the pistol immediately after
firing, before putting the pistol away, putting
into a holster or handing it to another
authorized person.

Never give the pistol to a person who has not
thoroughly familiarized himself or herself with
the safety instructions and handling of the

pistol, by reading the corresponding
instructions.

Never leave the pistol lying unattended.
Unauthorized persons could cause damage
with it, threaten or kill other people, for which
you could be held liable.

Never store the pistol loaded, but remove the
magazine and verify that there is no cartridge
left in the chamber of the barrel by following
the unloading procedure.

Always keep the pistol and the ammunition
separate from one another, and ensure that
neither is obtained by unauthorized persons or
children.

Please read and understand these instructions
carefully before each and every handling of the
SIG SAUER Pistol.
