10.1 Cause and correction of malfunctions
Malfunctions can be prevented with the proper mainte-
nance of the pistol (cleaning and inspection). Should,
however, a malfunction occur while firing, proceed as
follows:
•
Hold the pistol pointed in the firing direction
(safe direction) and take your finger from the trigger
while you carry out the steps described below.
1. Remove magazine and deposit safely.
2. Draw slide 50 back until stop and arrest it in the open
position by pushing up the slide catch lever 26.
3. Check (visually and manually with appropriate aid) to
ensure that there is no round, bullet, case or foreign
matter in the chamber or in the barrel (see section 3,
page USA 10). If a blockage is lodged in the barrel
bore, strip the pistol (see section 8.1) and have the
blockage removed by a qualified gunsmith using the
proper tools.
4. Remove all rounds, cases or foreign matter. Clean,
lubricate and assemble the pistol (see section 8.3/8.4).
5. Have pistol checked by a gunsmith or armor.
