- With clean hands, roll the entire earplug into narrowest possible crease-free cylinder.
- Reach over your head with a free hand, pull your ear up and back, and insert the earplug well inside your ear canal.

Push-In Foam Trust Fit™

DOs and DON’Ts of Howard Leight Earplugs
Proper Fit: If either or both earplugs do not seem to be fitted properly,
remove the earplug and reinsert.
Removal: Gently twist earplug while slowly pulling in an outward motion
for removal.
Acoustical Check: In a noisy environment, with earplugs inserted, cup
your hands over your ears and release. Earplugs should block enough noise so
that covering your ears with your hands does not result in a significant noise
difference.
WEAR
- Read and follow all earplug fitting instructions.
SELECTION
- Avoid overprotection in minimal noise environments – in selecting the best earplug for your situation, consider noise levels and your need to communicate with co-workers or hear warning signals on the job.
MAINTENANCE
- Prior to fitting, inspect earplugs or ear tips for dirt, damage, or hardness. Discard & replace immediately if compromised.
- For proper hygiene discard disposable earplugs after use.
- With proper maintenance reusable earplugs should be replaced every 2-4 weeks. Push In Foam earplugs should be replaced every 5 days.
- Wash with mild soap/water, pat dry or air dry, and store in a case when not in use.
- Clean regularly and replace ear tip pods every 2-4 weeks on banded earplugs.
