^ WARNING
Always be sure that the complete product is:
- Suitable for the application;
- Fitted correctly;
- Worn during all periods of exposure;
- Replaced when necessary.
This product may be adversely affected by certain
chemical substances. Contact 3M for additional
information.
Leave the area immediately if the hearing protector
becomes damaged.
The fitting of hygiene covers 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 officer 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.
Helmet mounted ear muffs complying with EN352-3
are of 'medium size range' or 'small size range' or
'large size range'. 'Medium size range' helmet
mounted ear muffs will fit the majority of wearers.
'Small size range' or 'large size range' helmet
mounted ear muffs are designed to fit wearers for
whom 'medium size range' helmet mounted ear
muffs are not suitable.
Proper selection, training, use and appropriate
maintenance are essential in order for the product
to help protect the wearer from noise hazards.
Failure to follow all instructions on the use of these
personal protection products and/or failure to
properly wear the complete product during all
periods of exposure may adversely affect the
wearer's health, lead to severe or life threatening
illness or permanent disability.
See all instructions for use and save for continuing
reference.
