The Peltor ProTac is an active hearing protector that allows comfortable contact with your
surroundings while effectively protecting you from harmful noise.
The Peltor ProTac has separate full stereo through double microphones for ambient noise,

an external audio signal, such as a com radio, at the same time.
This hearing protector is tested and approved according to PPE directive 89/686/EEC and
EMC directive 89/336/EEC, which means that it meets the demands for CE marking.
To ensure complete satisfaction with your new Peltor product, please read the entire
instruction manual.
(A) WHAT IS WHAT?
1a. Extra broad headband (MT5H7A) with soft padding for ideal comfort throughout the
working day.
1b. Neckband (MT5H7B) for use when a headband would be in the way.
1c. Helmet attachment (MT5H7P3*) for all regular helmet types. Peltor's helmets, visor
and rain protector fit this helmet attachment.
1d. Collapsible headband (MT5H7F) for easy, protected storage in a pocket or case.
1e. Headset (MT5H7A-07) for use with a PTT adapter.
1f. Flex headset (MT5H7A-77) for interchangeable cords with different connectors.
2. Individually sprung headband wires of stainless steel provide an even distribution
of pressure around the ears. They maintain their resilience better than regular plastic
headbands through a wide range of temperatures.
3. Low, two-point fasteners and easy height adjustment with no protruding parts.
4. Soft, wide foam/fluid-filled ear cushions with built-in pressure-relief channels for low
pressure, effective sealing and ideal comfort.
5. On/off button. A high tone confirms switching on. A low tone confirms switching off. The
Peltor ProTac switches off automatically two hours after the last sound is registered. Two
tones in close succession at ten-second intervals warn you that the unit will be switched
off in one minute if you do not adjust the volume.
6. Volume control. Buttons for adjusting the volume level in the earphones. Press the
upper button to increase the volume, and the lower button to decrease it. The last setting
is stored when the unit is switched off.
7. The battery cover with locking screw makes battery replacement quick and easy.
8. Microphones for ambient noise, which is reproduced at no more than 8 dBA equivalent
noise level in the earphones.
9. Audio input for connecting a communication radio, etc. The external sound input is
limited to 8 dB.
10. The speech microphone (on some models only) allows two-way communication by
com radio or telephone. An adapter or cord is needed.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Replacing the batteries
Unscrew the locking screw and open the battery cover. Use two .5-volt AA batteries (in-
cluded). Make sure that the + and – poles of the batteries are in the correct position (see
the figure in the cover).
WARNING! If you use rechargeable batteries, install them only according to the charger
manual. Dry-cell batteries can explode if recharged.
Two high tones are emitted when the batteries have about 0 hours' life span left. The interval
between the tones decreases as the batteries grow weaker. Note that the type of battery can
affect the indicator function. Never replace batteries with the unit switched on.
Connecting a cord (for ProTac Flex headset models)
Step : Insert the connector on the cord by pressing it into the jack on the bottom of the left
ear shell of the Flex Headset until you feel it snap into place.
Step : Adjust the volume on the communication radio to a comfortable level with the
headset volume turned up all the way. Consult the radio manual for how to adjust the
output volume.
(B) Adjusting the headband
(B:) Slide out the shells and place the headset over your ears so the ear cushions enclose
the ears completely and fit snugly against the head.
(B:2) Adjust the height of the shells for a comfortable fit while holding the headband flat
against your head.
(B:3) The headband should lie across the top of the head.
(C) Adjusting the helmet attachment
(C:1) Snap the helmet attachment into the slot on the helmet. To switch the unit from venti-
lation to working position, press the headband wires inwards until you hear a click on both
sides. Ensure that the shell and the headband wires in working mode do not bump or snag
