To prevent accidental discharges, the wearer must arm the jacket before it can deliver a shock. A lock on the sleeve must first be opened with a key, and then the charge is built up by holding down a button inside one of the sleeves.

Upon spotting the rapist reaching for you, proceed to rummage around your purse for the arming key, hold down the sewn in lock until you are able to turn the key a full 90 degrees. Your shock jacket is now armed and should take a minute or two to fully charge.

You would charge it up before walking into a dangerous area like a singles bar or graveyard.
