Warnings:
- This earmuff is an M (normal) size over-the-head hearing protector complying with EN352-1. It will fit the majority of wearers. The earmuff must be regularly checked for serviceability. Put the earmuffs on before exposing them to noise, and wear them during the whole noise exposure. Failure to adhere to these recommendations will cause the protection afforded by the earmuffs severely impaired.
- This product may be adversely affected by certain chemical substances. Further information should be sought from the manufacturer.
Earmuffs, and in particular cushions, may deteriorate with use and should be examined at frequent intervals for cracking and air leakage. - The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions can affect the acoustic performance of the hearing protectors.
Care Instructions:
Clean with warm soapy water; do not use organic solvents for cleaning. The hearing protector may also be disinfected with alcohol. When not in use, it is recommended to store the earmuff in a clean and dry location.
