affected by wearing other equipment, such as spectacles,
respirators etc. This may reduce attenuation. If in doubt, contact
ambient sounds which may affect warning signals and vital
communication. Always ensure that you select the right product
to match the working environment so that vital communication
and emergency sounds remain audible. Ear muffs complying with
EN352-1 and EN352-3 are of 'medium size range' or 'small size

essential in order for the product to help protect the wearer from
noise hazards.
Failure to follow all instructions on the use of these personal
protection products and/or failure to properly wear the complete
product during all periods of exposure may adversely affect the
wearer's health, lead to severe or life threatening illness or
