Warning!
It is important that the instructions for use are
followed. Failure to do so could result in a drastic
reduction in the noise attenuation and may lead
to serious injury.
Carefully read these user instructions!
• The hearing protector must be used at all times
in noisy environments to provide the full
protection effect! Only 100% wear time provides
full protection.
• The audibility of warning signals at a specific
workplace may be impaired if over protected,
when using a hearing protector with a too high
noise attenuation performance in relation to the
noise environment.
• This product may be adversely affected by
certain chemical substances.
Further information should be sought from the
manufacturer.
• Ensure that the hearing protectors are regularly
inspected for serviceability.
• The hearing protector's noise attenuating
properties can dramatically decrease with
usage of for example thick spectacle frames,
ski masks/balaclavas, etc.
• Use of perspiration/hygienic protection over the
sealing rings can reduce the hearing protector's
noise attenuation properties.
• Earmuffs, and in particular cushions, may
deteriorate with use and should be examined at
frequent intervals for cracking and leakage.
• Immediately discard the product if showing
signs of cracks or damage.
• Hygiene kit should be changed at least twice
per year. Make sure you choose the correct
hygiene kit for your hearing protector.
• Clean the product with mild soap. You must be
sure that the detergent you use does not irritate
the skin. Do not dip the product in water.
• The hearing protector must be stored in a dry
and clean environment out of direct sun light,
e.g. in its original packaging.
