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
workers with protection against hazardous noise levels and
loud sounds while allowing the user to communicate with
built-in Bluetooth technology, hear the surroundings via the
®
ambient microphones, and listen to radio. 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 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 correct use, consult supervisor and 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.
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.
• This product may be adversely affected by certain chemical
substances. Further information should be sought from the
manufacturer.
• The helmet mounted earmuffs are of large size range.
Earmuffs complying with EN 352-3 are of medium size
range or small size range or large size range. Medium size
range earmuffs will fit the majority of wearers. Small size
1 ** 3M™ PELTOR™ WS™ ALERT™ XPI Headset
range or large size range earmuffs are designed to fit
wearers for whom medium size range earmuffs are not
suitable.
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:
a. Research suggests that users may receive less noise
reduction than indicated by the attenuation value(s) on the
packaging, due to variation in fit, fitting skill, and motivation of
the user. Refer to your applicable regulations for guidance on
how to adjust label values and estimate attenuation. In addition,
3M strongly recommends fit testing of hearing protectors.
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. If the recommendations above are not adhered to, the
protection afforded by the earmuffs will be severely impaired.
CAUTION
To reduce the risks associated with fire, explosion and
burns, which if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury or property damage:
a. Use only 3M™ PELTOR™ USB charger FR09 and
3M™ PELTOR™ USB wall adapter FR08 with
3M™ PELTOR™ LR6NM rechargeable batteries.
b. The battery may not be charged if the ambient temperature
exceeds +45 °C.
