- Always wear hearing protection when you are exposed to harmful noise.
- Do not expose the earmuffs to chemicals.
- The audibility of warning signals is impaired when wearing hearing protection.
- The hearing protection must be adjusted in accordance with the instructions so that they fit the user’s head.
- The hearing protection, and in particular the sealing rings, can deteriorate over time and should be examined frequently to make sure they are not cracked and do not admit noise.
- Attaching hygienic protection to the hearing protection’s pads can affect the acoustic properties of the hearing protection.
- Do not use paint, solvents, or glue on the product, and do not attach stickers or similar to it, unless recommended by the manufacturer

USE
- Make sure that there is no hair under the sealing rings. Remove earrings that prevent the sealing rings from sealing tightly.
- Pull out the band as far as it will go and place the cups over your ears so that the band is lying over your head.
- Adjust the length of the headband over the head so that they fit firmly and comfortably and seal tightly around the ears.
- Check the fit by talking loudly. Your voice should sound muffled. Ambient noise should sound weaker than without hearing protection.
- Check that the cups’ sealing rings sit firmly against your head and around your ears.
NOTE.
- Pull hair away from your ears and use glasses with thin frames to minimize the admission of noise. Never attempt to change the shape of the headband.
- Check before use that the sealing rings are not cracked, torn, or otherwise damaged.
