headband or spring-arms, or stainless steel neckband
and foam-plastic filled cushions.
Use
To attain highest comfort and protection from your
hearing protector you shall use, take care of and adjust
the protector in accordance with the instructions below.
• The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions
may affect the acoustic performance of the
earmuffs.
• This product may be adversely affected by
certain chemical substances. Further informa-
tion should be sought from the manufacturer.
Fitting and adjustment
Noise reduction will be adversely affected by anything
that impairs the seal of the earmuff cushions against
the head, such as thick spectacle frames, balaclavas,
etcuch as thick spectacle frames, balaclavas, etc.
Remove all hair under the cushion and fit the ear cups
over your ears so that they sit comfortably and snugly.
Ensure that your ears are totally enclosed by the cups
and that you get an even pressure around your ears.
Headband (pic. B)
Adjust the protector to its largest size and put it on.
Now adjust the headband so that the protector rests
lightly on your head.
Cap/Helmet mounted (pic. C)
Push the helmet mount into the helmet's slot
attachment until it snaps into place.Place the earmuffs
over the ears and press inwards until you hear a click.
Adjust the earmuffs so that the helmet fits comfortably
on your head.
Care
Clean with mild detergent (soap). You must be sure
that the detergent does not irritate your skin. The
hearing protector should be kept in a dry and clean
place, for example in the original packing.

with use and should be examined at
frequent intervals for cracking and leakage.
Hygiene kit should be changed at least twice per year.
Make sure you choose the correct hygiene kit for your
hearing protector. Hygiene kit #99403
Warning
If the instructions are not observed attenuation can
dramatically decrease. The earmuffs shall be worn at
all time in noisy surroundings!
Information required by E.P.A. (US)
The level of noise entering a person's ear, when
hearing protector is worn as directed, is closely
approximated by the difference between the A
weighted environmental noise level and the NRR.
Example:
1. The environmental noise level as measured
at the ear is 92 dBA.
2. The NRR is 25 decibels (dB).
3. The level of noise entering the ear is
approximately equal to 67 dB.
Caution
For noise environments dominated by frequencies
below 500 Hz the C-weighted environmental noise
level shall be used.
Warning
Improper fit of this device will reduce its effectiveness
in attenuating noise. 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 accurate indicator of the protection
attainable against impulsive noise such as gunfire.
