When in use, the cups must be placed in working position. Press the wires inward until you hear a click on both sides. Make sure that the
cup and the headband wire in working position are not pressing on the helmet lining or the edge of your hardhat so that leakage can occur.
Parking position should not be used if the cups are damp inside after an intense period of use.

(E:5) Unscrew the middle screw holding the Z3E snap-mount.
(E:6) Replace the snap-mount with Z3* depending on which type of safety helmet is being used. NOTE. Ensure the snap-mount is turned

IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION
100% use of a working hearing protector is the only sure protection from hearing loss.
If you spend time in environments with more than 85 dB A-weighted noise, you need to protect your hearing, because the hearing receptors
deep in your ears may be irreparably damaged. If you remove the protectors for even a tiny portion of the time you spend in noisy situations,
you are in the danger zone.
A comfortable hearing protector designed for the specific noise level in which it is used is the best guarantee that you will wear the hearing
protector 100% of the time, thereby ensuring protection from permanent hearing loss.
