• 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. 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, your hearing may be at risk. To learn more about hearing
protection for impulse noise, visit www.3M.com/hearing.
• The limitation of the input signal is only remained for levels not exceeding 300mV RMS.

NOTICE
• This earmuff is provided with level dependent attenuation. The wearer should check correct operation before use.
If distortion or failure is detected, the wearer should refer to the manufacturer's advice for maintenance and
replacement of the battery.
• This earmuff is provided with electrical audio input. The wearer should check correct operation before use. If
distortion or failure is detected, the wearer should refer to the manufacturer's advice.
• 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.
• If NRR is used to estimate typical workplace protection, 3M recommends that NRR be reduced by 50% or in
accordance with applicable regulations.
• This product may be adversely affected by certain chemical substances. Further information should be obtained
from the manufacturer.
• In Canada, users of hard hats combined with earmuffs must refer to CSA Standard Z94.1 on industrial protective
headwear.
