INTENDED USE

Over-The-Head mode only.
^ WARNING
Always be sure that the complete product is:

• This product may be adversely affected by
certain chemical substances.
• Contact 3M for additional information.

protector becomes damaged.
• The tting of hygiene covers or sweat pads to
the cushions may affect the acoustic
performance of the ear muffs.
• Never modify or alter this product. Replace
parts only with original 3M spare parts.
• Ear muffs, and in particular cushions, may
deteriorate with use and should be examined at
frequent intervals for cracking and leakage, for
example.
• The acoustic seal may be adversely affected by
wearing other equipment, such as spectacles,
respirators etc. This may reduce attenuation. If
in doubt, contact your safety of cer or 3M.
• When worn, hearing protectors reduce ambient
sounds which may affect warning signals and
vital communication. Always ensure that you
select the right product to match the working
environment so that vital communication and
emergency sounds remain audible.

maintenance are essential in order for the
product to help protect the wearer from noise

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Prior to tting, inspect the product to ensure it is not
damaged. If this is discovered dispose of
immediately and obtain a new pair. Brush excess
hair aside and remove any ear jewellery that may
affect acoustic seal before attempting to t the
hearing protector.
1. Unfold the ear muffs by holding the ear cups with
one hand and lifting the headband up until it locks
into position. (To fold, hold the ear cups and press
the top of the headband down until it collapses into
position). (Figure 1).
2. Pull the cups apart and place the ear muffs over
the ears so that the cushions form a snug seal
around the ears (Figure 2).
3. Adjust the height for optimum comfort and t by
sliding the cups up or down the guide whilst holding
the headband in place (Figure 3).
4. Shows the product correctly tted (Figure 4).
FIT CHECK
When hearing protectors are correctly worn your
own voice should sound hollow and sounds around
you should not sound as loud as before.
For optimum noise reduction the cushions should
form a snug t against the head with no
interference of the seal by any objects e.g.
respirator headbands or spectacles arms. The cups
should completely enclose the ears. If you are
unable to t these ear muffs correctly and
comfortably contact your safety of cer or 3M for
further advice.

muffs should be wiped with a suitable material, for

2. If the ear muffs cannot be cleaned or are
