CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING LANYARD
CLEANING, STORAGE & PRODUCT LIFE
EP4 Sonic Defenders
Plus typically last up to 6+ months, depending on usage
and care. Clean with mild soap and water or alcohol swabs and allow to air
dry. If exposed to salt water, rinse with fresh water and allow to air dry. Inspect
earplugs regularly and replace when they become stiff and hardened. Store in
a cool, dry place in the included container. Do not leave in direct sunlight. In
extreme storage temperatures, filters may separate from stems. If this occurs,
filters must be reinserted into stems before using.
NOTE:
EP4s provide a reduced level of hearing protection with their noise-reducing filters removed.
RADIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USE
An EP4 earplug can also serve as an earpiece for compatible radio
communication systems by simply removing its noise-reducing filter (store in a
safe place for future use) and inserting the system’s elbow connector into the
hole previously occupied by the filter until snug.

1. Starting with the EarLock
®
retention ring oriented slightly backward, rotate
the earplug forward while inserting the stem of the red-filtered EP4 into the
right ear canal deep enough for the uppermost flange to seal. Fit the retention
ring to the natural contour of the concha bowl surrounding the ear canal to
lock the earplug in place.
2. Check the seal by placing your fingertip over the outer hole of filter and then
removing. Detection of a slight suction indicates a proper seal.
3. Repeat process with white-filtered earplug for left ear.
4. Test earplugs by clapping, with filter caps out. If no noticeable decrease in
volume, reinsert and retest.
5. To block lower-level noise* in quiet environments and to maximize protection,
insert attached filter caps into filter holes and push in until snug.
* Inserting filter caps negates noise-reducing filters’ abilities to let ambient sounds and
conversations pass safely through.
FITTING & TESTING
WARNING:
If the instructions above are not adhered to, the protection afforded by
EP4 Sonic Defenders
Plus will be severely impaired.
STEM ADJUSTMENT
EP4 Sonic Defenders
®
Plus feature adjustable stems to maximize fit and
comfort. To adjust stem, with earplug removed from ear, pull out or push in
stem to lengthen or shorten for comfort.
Remove twist tie and uncoil
lanyard. Insert lanyard ends into
small holes on the outside of EP4s,
located beneath the noise-reducing
filters, and push in until lanyard
ends snap in place. To remove, pull
gently on lanyard ends until they
disconnect from earplugs.
