Minimize Malfunctions (“Jams”)

Malfunctions can largely be avoided by cleaning the pistol (see
section 9.3 “Cleaning the Pistol” on page 31).

After each firing session;

Whenever a buildup of firing residue is suspected; or

Whenever the pistol is exposed to extreme environmental

conditions (rain, snow, freezing temperatures, etc.).

Pistol Adjustments

The P232 pistol is designed for both right-hand and left-hand
operation. The magazine catch may be operated by either hand
based on shooter preference. The grip plates may be exchanged
with optional rubber grips (standard on stainless SIGLITE
models), giving a choice of ergonomically correct grip sizes to
accommodate different hand sizes.

Verify the magazine is removed - visually and
physically confirm the pistol and chamber are
unloaded before attempting disassembly or
performing any maintenance steps. Failure to
ensure the firearm is unloaded could result in
unintentional discharge, causing injury or death.
