Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for choosing 3M™ PELTOR™ Hearing Protection 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.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or death:
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.
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 NRR or 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.
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, such as gunfire. It is
difficult to predict the required and/or actual hearing protection obtained during exposure to impulse noises. For gunfire, the
weapon type, number of rounds fired, proper selection, fit and use of hearing protection, proper care of hearing protection,
and other variables will impact performance. To learn more about hearing protection for impulse noise, visit www.3M.com/
hearing.
• Although hearing protectors can be recommended for protection against the harmful effects of impulsive noise, the
Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) is based on the attenuation of continuous noise and may not be an accurate indicator of the
protection attainable against impulsive noise such as gunfire (wording required by EPA).
• Operating temperature range: -4°F (-20°C) to 131°F (55°C)
• Storage temperature range: -40°F (-40°C) to 131°F (55°C)
• Battery may not be charged if ambient temperature exceeds 45°C or 113°F.
