**Section 5 - Basic Equipment Information and Guidelines**

*To ensure that PSVN personnel can execute their duties more efficiently, equipment is provided in-game.
Information and guidelines for the PSVN Equipment are as follows:*

**Handcuffs:**
>**a, Detain System:**
It's purpose is to detain any individual who violates the law and regulations. 
It is used for interrogation and to suppress a person and his/her actions, as well as to move someone out of a prohibited position.
You may not detain people who are sitting down.
The Detain system may not be used by a PSVN Enlisted (Level 1 - Level 2)
>
>**b, Arrest System:**
The arrest system is a special equipment for the PSVN. It has the ability to arrest anybody who is found breaking the game's rules and regulations, as well as anyone who is caught committing crimes in game, such as smuggling. robbery, and murder.
This tool takes the criminal to a detention facility or a prison, where they will be kept for a specified period of time.
All PSVN Personnel must not use this system to abuse their authority. This is only used to capture criminals and to put them in prison, this is not similar to a detain tool.
The Arrest system may not be used by a PSVN Enlisted (Level 1 - Level 2)

**Taser**
>The Taser is used to suppress violators and stop suspects from escaping.
The usage of this tool must only be when necessary and should not be overused upon reasons that are not applicable.
This tool shall not be misused and abused. If one is caught, he/she will receive punishments.
The Taser system may not be used by a PSVN Level 1.

**PSVN weapons (K-59/AKM):**
>K-59 and AKM guns are primarily used for combat, suppression, and elimination of any civilian who breaks the law.
You cannot kill any person unless you have a valid justification to do so. To prevent this, you may fire a warning shot at them and warn them before you kill.

Any misuse will result in severe punishments.

At this point in the training you should ask the trainees if they have any questions. Then, ask them four questions on what they have just learned.

## Part 3 - Defensive Tactics

First, you need to give trainees information about our Use of Force.

> **Five Levels of Force:**
**Cooperative Controls:** The officer can diffuse a situation simply through being present and assertive.
>
>**Contact Controls:** Non-Pain techniques such as restraining and grabbing are used to ensure compliance, this may be used if a suspect is refusing to remain present.
>
>**Compliance Techniques:** The deployment of balanced force is used to overcome an abusive or violent suspect, equipment used may include a baton.
>
>**Defensive Tactics:** If the suspect is acting violently towards leo/public then they must take immediate action to regain control of the situation, this may include the deployment of pepper spray.
>
>**Deadly Force:** If there is an immediate and direct threat to life then the Operator may deploy deadly force, this describes any techniques/equipment that may incapacitate the suspect.

>**Defensive Tactics**
>*Defensive Tactics are used by Police Force in order to protect themself against a suspect via the use of physical contact or tools. Suspect can often assault, harass or get too close to you. If this occurs, you are permitted to use tools such as pepper spray or baton.* 
>
>*Note that you MUST give at least 3 warnings to a subject before using any form of contact or tools to defend yourself.*
>
> **DEFENSIVE TIPS:**
Always make sure you know how close someone is to you
Stay alert at all times
Take cover if needed
Call for backup if outnumbered or if general assistance is needed.
Be ready for the worst possible scenarios
Don’t get cornered
Follow the Level of Force

Then you will pratice with trainees, give them Baton + Taser and practice handling simple, minor situation with trainees.
