1) Store your taser as your would any other weapon, in a location locked away from children. Insure that your taser is never stored "loaded". If you decide to carry your taser in your purse or briefcase, ensure it is hidden so children will never find it. Always check local laws before bringing your taser outside of your home.
2) Never point your taser at a target if you do not intend to fire. A taser is a not a toy. You can truly hurt someone with it. If you fire your taser at an unintended target, even accidentally, you can be subject to a number of legal penalties
3) Fifteen feet is the maximum range of the tazers sold to citizens. In order to judge accurately, measure 15 feet with a tape measure and familiarize yourself with this distance. The ideal range to your target is 7-10 feet. If you fire from a closer range, the darts of the unit may not lodge far enough apart to have maximum effect.
4) A taser uses an electrical charge and that charge is fully capable of igniting flammable materials. Don't ever fire your taser near combustible or explosive substances.
5) Your taser is designed to make your target lose control of their motor functions and so if you fire a taser at someone in the water, or someone who could be seriously harmed by a fall, you are no longer using a non-lethal weapon. Keep this in mind before you discharge a taser at someone.
6) Your fingers and hands do not belong anywhere near the business end of your taser and don't point it at yourself.
7) Don't ignore a low battery signal. Replace them immediately. Maintain your taser in firing condition.
8) Although you can use a taser as a contact weapon, the effective minimum range for the probes to deploy with enough separation is about 3 freet. The ideal distance from your target is 7-10 feet. Familiarize yourself with this length.
9) Hold the taser properly and that's upright and level to the ground. Don't hold it at an angle or sideways. If you do the probes won't deploy as they're designed to do.
10) Find a safe place to get used to handling your taser and if it has the laser sighting- which most of them do, get used to aiming it. Purchasing an extra cartridge to practice firing is an option you might want to consider.
11) If you ever need to use your taser on a person, aim for the center of the chest. It is the largest area of the body and you're less likely to miss.
12) Once you have fired your taser and your target is on the ground, put the taser down and leave for safety. Tasers are traceable by police and there is a high probability that your taser will be recovered. A taser is replaceable, you are not.
