EN 352 Safety Statements:
•  The tting of hygiene covers to the cushions may affect the 
acoustic performance of the earmuffs.
•  Performance may deteriorate with battery usage. The typical 
period of continuous use that can be expected from the 
earmuffs battery is approximately 70 hours. This product 
may be adversely affected by certain chemical substances. 
Further information should be sought from the manufacturer.
•  The entertainment audio signal does not exceed 82 dB (A) 
for input voltage up to maximum value 500 mV. The product 
shall not be used if it can’t be ensured that the input voltage 
doesn’t exceed the maximum value.
2.2.  CAUTION 
•  Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
•  Do not charge batteries in temperatures above 45°C (113°F).
•  Only use AA or AAA non-rechargeable (as applicable) or 
3M™PELTOR™Ni-MH rechargeable LR6NM or LR03NM 
(as applicable) batteries. These rechargeable batteries might 
not be available in all markets.
•  Always use product-specic 3M replacement parts. Use of 
unauthorized replacement parts may reduce the protection 
you receive from this product.
2.3.  NOTE 
•  When worn according to these User Instructions, this 
hearing protector helps reduce exposure to both continuous 
noises, such as industrial noises and noises from vehicles 
and aircraft, as well as impulse noises, such as gunre. 
It is difcult to predict the required and/or actual hearing 
protection obtained during exposure to impulse noises. 
For gunre, the weapon type, number of rounds red, proper 
selection, t and use of hearing protection, proper care of 
hearing protection, and other variables will impact 
performance. To learn more about hearing protection for 
impulse noise, visit www.3M.com.
•  This hearing protector is provided with level-dependent 
attenuation. The user should check correct operation before 
use. If distortion or failure is detected, the user should refer 
to the manufacturer’s advice for maintenance and 
replacement of the battery.
•  Operating temperature range: –20°C (–4°F) to 50°C (122°F).
•  Do not mix old and new batteries.
•  Do not mix alkaline, standard, or rechargeable batteries.
•  To properly dispose of the battery, follow local solid waste 
disposal regulations.
•  Attention – Product imagery is for illustration only.

4.  EXPLANATION OF STANDARD TABLES
The sound attenuation was obtained with the device powered 
off.
4.1.  EUROPE
3M strongly recommends personal t testing of hearing 
protectors. Research suggests that users may receive less 
noise reduction than indicated by the attenuation label 
value(s) on the packaging due to variation in t, tting skill, 
and motivation of the user. Refer to applicable regulations 
and guidance on how to adjust attenuation label value(s). In 
the absence of applicable regulations, it is recommended that 
the attenuation label value(s) be reduced to better estimate 
typical protection.
