Care and Maintenance of your Hearing Protectors
It is important that you read these notes to ensure longevity of your custom
hearing protectors. Cleaning them regularly and paying close attention to their
maintenance is vital to ensure their continued performance.
Cleaning and Storage
Use a moist cloth or sterile wipe to clean the silicone moulds. Visually inspect
the sound ducts on each earpiece to check that no wax, skin debris or dirt has
penetrated. Use the wire loop pick provided to carefully remove any matter.
Always return to the carry pouch when not in use. Keep away from moisture and
heat or direct sunlight
DO NOT
immerse the filters in any liquid. The filters can be removed by gently
squeezing the mould around the filter until it ‘pops’ out allowing the moulds to be
washed in warm soapy water. After cleaning, dry thoroughly and the filters can be
pushed back into the locating sockets so that they fit flush with the outside surface
of the earpiece.
Fitting Guide.
NOTE
: Each of your hearing protectors is marked with red or blue detail. The
earpiece with red detail fits the right ear and the one with blue detail fits the left
ear.
Hold the hearing protector as in Figure 1 and insert into the ear canal twisting it
backwards while applying slight pressure as in Figures 2 & 3. Press the protector
until it fits comfortably in your ear as in Figure 4.
Where your hearing protectors have a grip, hold the grip when inserting the
earpieces.
To remove, grip the hearing protectors and twist in a forward motion while pulling
gently from the ear.
NEVER
remove by pulling on the (optional) connection cord.
A tube of comfort cream is provided which can help with insertion, by spreading
a small amount on the tip of the earpiece that fits into the ear canal. Pay attention
not to get cream into the sound duct.

Using your T15 Monitors
To use T15 monitors with your ER series hearing
protectors you will need to remove the filters by
gently squeezing the mould until the filter pops out.
When not in use, always store your filters in the pouch
provided and keep away from moisture and extremes
of heat. Push the T15 monitors into the filter sockets
on the earpieces until they fit securely. The monitors
are slightly oversized to ensure a complete seal from
ambient surroundings and will withstand the force
required to seat them correctly. Note that the T15
monitors are right and left handed with the colour
coding matching that already on your earmoulds.
Never remove your monitors from your ears or the
moulds by pulling on the cables. When not in use,
your T15 monitors should be stored in the pouch
provided, away from moisture and extremes of heat.
