2.2 Initial Charging
Before first use, fully charge the stun gun. Locate the charging port at the base of the device. Connect the provided charging cable to the stun gun and plug it into a standard wall outlet. The charging indicator light will illuminate. Allow 10-12 hours for the initial charge to ensure optimal battery life.
2.3 Safety Features
The VTS-T03 is equipped with a safety switch to prevent accidental discharge. Familiarize yourself with its location and operation before use. The safety switch typically has three positions: OFF, FLASHLIGHT, and STUN. Ensure the device is in the 'OFF' position when not in use or when carrying.

To activate the LED flashlight, slide the safety switch to the middle position (often marked with a flashlight icon). The 350 lumen tactical flashlight will illuminate, providing bright light for various situations.

3.2 Stun Gun Operation
- Disengage Safety: Slide the safety switch to the uppermost position (often marked with a lightning bolt or 'STUN' icon). This arms the stun function.
- Activate Stun: While the safety switch is in the 'STUN' position, press and hold the activation button (usually a separate button on the side of the device). The stun electrodes will emit a high-voltage charge.
- Contact: For effective use, firmly press the stun electrodes against the target's body. A brief contact (1-2 seconds) is typically sufficient to cause muscle incapacitation.
- Re-engage Safety: Immediately return the safety switch to the 'OFF' position after use to prevent accidental discharge.
