INTRODUCTION
Congratulations and thank you for choosing
3M™ PELTOR™ communication solutions!
Welcome to the next generation of
protective communication.

INTENDED USE

These 3M™ PELTOR™ headsets are
intended to provide protection against
hazardous noise levels while allowing
the user to hear the surroundings via the
ambient microphones. It is expected that
all users read and understand the provided
user instructions as well as be familiar with
the use of this device.
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 Services
(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
Services. 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:
a. 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. The
audibility of warning signals at a specific
workplace may be impaired while using the
entertainment facility.
b. To reduce the risks associated with
igniting an explosion, do not use this
product in a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Failure to follow these instructions may
reduce the protection provided by the
earmuff and may result in hearing loss:
1
a. 3M strongly recommends fit testing of
hearing protectors. Research suggests that
many users will receive less noise reduction
than indicated by the attenuation on the
packaging due to variation in fit, fitting skill,
and motivation of the user.
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
or neckband, 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.
h. If the requirements above are not
adhered to, the protection afforded by the
earmuffs will be severely impaired.
EN 352 Safety Statements:
• The output of the level-dependent circuit
of this hearing protector may exceed the
external sound level.
• The fitting of hygiene covers to the
cushions may affect the acoustic
performance of the earmuffs.
• Performance may deteriorate with battery
usage. The typical period of continuous use
that can be expected from the earmuff
battery is approximately 600 hours.
• This product may be adversely affected
by certain chemical substances. Further
information should be sought from the
manufacturer.
