Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for choosing 3M™ PELTOR™
Communication Solutions! Welcome to the next generation of
protective communication.
IMPORTANT
Please read, understand, and follow all safety information in
these instructions prior to use. Retain these instructions for
future reference. For additional information or any questions,
contact 3M Technical Service (contact information listed on
the last page).
WARNING
This hearing protector helps reduce exposure to hazardous
noise and other loud sounds.
Misuse or failure to wear
hearing protection at all times when exposed to
hazardous noise may result in hearing loss or injury.
For proper use, see supervisor, User Instructions or call
3M Technical Service. If your hearing seems dulled or
you hear a ringing or buzzing during or after any noise
exposure (including gunfire), or for any other reason you
suspect a hearing problem, leave the noisy environment
immediately and consult a medical professional and/or
your supervisor.
WARNING
EN 352 Safety Statements:
• The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions may affect
the acoustic performance of the earmuffs.
• Performance may deteriorate with battery usage. The
typical period of continuous use that can be expected from
the earmuff battery is approximately 25 hours.
• This product may be adversely affected by certain
chemical substances. Further information should be
sought from the manufacturer.
• These earmuffs are of large size range. Earmuffs
complying with EN 352-1 and EN 352-3 are of ‘medium
size range’ or ‘small size range’ or ‘large size range’.
‘Medium size range’ ear-muffs will fit the majority of
wearers. ‘Small size range’ or ‘large size range’ ear-muffs
are designed to fit wearers for whom ‘medium size range’
earmuffs are not suitable.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious
injury or death:
a. Listening to music or other audio communication
may reduce your situational awareness and ability to hear
warning signals. Stay alert and adjust the audio volume
to the lowest acceptable level. The audibility of warning
signals at a specific workplace may be impaired while
using the entertainment facility.
Failure to follow these instructions may reduce the
protection provided by the earmuff and may result in
hearing loss:
a. 3M strongly recommends individual fit testing of
hearing protectors. If the SNR is used to estimate typical
workplace protection, 3M recommends that the noise
reduction value be reduced by 50% or in accordance with
applicable regulations.
b. Ensure the hearing protector is properly selected, fit,
adjusted, and maintained. Improper fit of this device will
reduce its effectiveness in attenuating noise. Consult the
enclosed instructions for proper fit.
c. Inspect the hearing protector before each use.
If damaged, select an undamaged hearing protector or
avoid the noisy environment.
d. When additional personal protective equipment is
necessary (e.g. safety glasses, respirators, etc.), select
flexible, low profile temples or straps to minimize
interference with the earmuff cushion. Remove all other
unnecessary articles (e.g. hair, hats, jewelry, headphones,
hygiene covers, etc.) that could interfere with the seal
of the earmuff cushion and reduce the protection of the
earmuff.
e. Do not bend or reshape the headband, and ensure
there is adequate force to hold the earmuffs firmly in
place.
f. Earmuffs, and in particular cushions, may deteriorate
with use and should be examined at frequent intervals for
cracking and leakage, for example. When used regularly,
replace the ear cushions and foam liners at least twice
a year to maintain consistent protection, hygiene, and
comfort.
g. The output of the electrical audio circuit of this
hearing protector may exceed the daily limit sound level.
Adjust the audio volume to the lowest acceptable level.
CAUTION:
• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
• The battery may not be charged if the ambient temperature
e113°F (+45°C).
NOTE
•
When worn according to the User Instructions, this hearing
protector helps reduce exposure to both continuous noises,
such as industrial noises and noises from vehicles and
aircraft, as well as very loud impulse noises. It is difficult to
predict the required and/or actual hearing protection obtained
during exposure to impulse noises. Fit and use of hearing
