Congratulations on the purchase of your new
3M™ Littmann® Cardiology S.T.C. 
(Soft-Touch Chestpiece) Stethoscope.
Designed to meet the exacting requirements of
health care professionals who demand
outstanding acoustic response. The Littmann
Cardiology S.T.C. stethoscope is designed with
a new ovoid shaped chestpiece that allows
improved access to areas difficult to auscultate
with traditional circular chestpieces. The new
design also utilizes 3M's patented tunable
diaphragm combined with superb
craftsmanship to offer the ultimate
performance in an outstanding single-sided
stethoscope.

The Littmann Cardiology S.T.C. stethoscope
has a satin polished stainless steel chestpiece
offering the convenience of a single-sided
stethoscope.  The patented tunable diaphragm
conveniently alternates between low and high
frequency sounds without the need to rotate
the chestpiece.  Additionally, the stethoscope
features a "Soft-Touch" insert for improved
ergonomics.  Other features include a

patient-friendly non-chill rim and diaphragm,

excellent acoustic seal and comfortable fit with
patented 3M™ Littmann® Snap Tight 
soft-sealing eartips, and a comfortably angled,
anatomically correct headset.  The Littmann
Cardiology S.T.C. stethoscope also offers a
two-in-one tube design to eliminate 
tube-rubbing noise, and is available in a
selection of classic tube colors to meet
individual preferences.

Most of all know that your Littmann
Cardiology S.T.C. stethoscope carries the
Littmann brand name, the name known
worldwide for unsurpassed quality.  As a
trusted leader in auscultation technology, the
Littmann brand of stethoscopes is your
assurance of acoustical superiority, innovative
design and exceptional performance.
