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. 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 proper use, see supervisor, 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 352-1 and 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 range or large size range earmuffs are designed
1
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. 3M strongly recommends individual fit testing of hearing
protectors. If the SNR is used to estimate typical workplace
protection, 3M recommends that the noise reduction value be
reduced by 50% or in accordance with applicable regulations.
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 ear-muffs 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
CAUTION:
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
