TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Transportation and storage
When the hearing protector is not in use, store in dry and clean place at normal room temperature and
do not place in direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the sealing rings are not compressed.
• Make sure that the headband is not stretched (Sordin SHARP-1).
• When the helmet is not in use, put the earmuffs in operating position.
NOTICE! If the hearing protector is stored for a prolonged period, charge every 4 weeks to maintain the
battery.
NOTICE! Do not press the cups onto the helmet shell as this will lock the spring in the earmuff arm, and
damage the attach ment slots on the side of the helmet (Sordin SHARP-2) (Fig. 1).
Disposal
Follow national regulations for disposal of product.
ACCESSORIES
Approved sizes (Sordin SHARP-1 and SHARP-1B)
Over-the-head earmuff size ranges (Sordin SHARP-1): Small-Medium-Large.
Approved helmets (Sordin SHARP-2 and SHARP-2B)
These earmuffs shall be fitted to, and used only with, the industrial safety helmets as listed in Table 2.
Adapter type number is marked on the adapter. For an updated list of approved helmet combinations,
visit www.sordin.com.
WARNING!
Helmet mounted hearing protectors complying with EN 352-3 are of 'medium size range' or 'small size
range' or 'large size range'. 'Medium size range' helmet mounted hearing protectors will fit the majority
of wearers. 'Small size range' or 'large size range' helmet mounted hearing protectors are designed to fit
wearers for whom 'medium size range' helmet mounted earmuffs are not suitable.
