Do not touch the trigger while moving the safety mechanism. Your fingers and all other objects should be kept
outside the trigger guard and away from the trigger until you are actually ready to fire by pulling the trigger.
WARNING:
The firearm will fire when the trigger is pulled and the
RED BAND IS SHOWING.
Even when the safety mechanism is engaged, careless handling can cause the firearm to fire. See the
Ten Commandments of Firearm Safety on page 2.
The Security System
The firearm you have purchased is equipped with an integrated security system. The security system enables the
owner to lock the safety mechanism on the firearm in the
“SAFE”
position with the use of a special key.
THIS SECURITY SYSTEM DOES NOT ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR SAFE GUN HANDLING AND STORAGE,
INCLUDING KEEPING THIS AND EVERY GUN UNLOADED AND LOCKED IN A SECURE PLACE WHEN NOT
IN USE. READ AND FOLLOW THESE AND OTHER SAFETY RULES IN THIS INSTRUCTION BOOK. FAILURE
TO READ, UNDERSTAND AND OBEY THESE RULES CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH TO YOU OR OTHERS. SEE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF FIREARM SAFETY ON PAGE 2.
The safety mechanism on the firearm you have purchased is a button
located behind the trigger, commonly known as the cross-bolt safety.
See Pictures 3 and 4 on page 7.
The safety mechanism provides additional protection against accidental
or unintentional discharge under normal usage when properly engaged
and in good working order.
On the safety mechanism there is a
“J
shaped slot. See Picture 5.
This
“J
slot is the key hole for securing your safety mechanism.
Also on the safety mechanism is a pointer which will point and line
up with either the
RED
or
WHITE DOT
on the trigger plate when the
safety mechanism is turned. See Picture 5. The position of the
pointer indicates whether or not the security system is engaged. The
existence of the security system does not change the basic operation
of the safety mechanism, nor does it change the manner in which the
safety mechanism should be used.
With your new firearm you will receive a capped key. To use the key
remove the cap. On the key is an indicator line which will line up
with the pointer on the safety mechanism. See Picture 6.
To engage the security system, press the safety mechanism to the
SAFE
position so the
RED BAND DOES NOT
SHOW.
Insert the key into the
“J
slot as far as it can go. Next, turn the key counter-clockwise so that the indi-
cator line on the key and the pointer on the safety mechanism line up with the
WHITE DOT
on the trigger plate.
THE SECURITY SYSTEM IS NOW ENGAGED.
In operating the security system,
NEVER
use excessive force to turn the key. If the key will not turn freely,
contact a Remington
®
Authorized Service Center.
Keep your security system engaged and your safety mechanism in the
SAFE
position when your firearm is
not in use. Keep your key in a secure place, inaccessible to others.
DO NOT
leave your key or any ammunition
with your firearm, which should be kept unloaded and locked in a safe place.
If you lose the key,
DO NOT
attempt to disengage the security system using a foreign object. This will damage
your firearm. Contact your Remington Authorized Service Center for a replacement key.
Even if you think the security system and safety mechanism are engaged, careless handling can cause the
firearm to fire. See the
Ten Commandments of Firearm Safety on page 2.
