• Do not store with the batteries installed.
• In extremely cold conditions, warm up the hearing protector before use.
• Ear-muffs, and in particular cushions, may deteriorate with use and should be examined at frequent intervals for cracking and leakage, for
example.
• The fitting of hygiene covers to the cushions may affect the acoustic performance of the ear-muffs.
Note: If these recommendations are not followed, attenuation and other functions can be impaired.
• Intrinsically safe approval (ATEX,) does not apply if technical changes are made in Ex-approved products. Only accessories with the same
type designation as original equipment may be used.
WARNING!
The output of the level-dependent circuit of this hearing protection may exceed the external sound level.
Warning! The output of the electrical audio circuit of this hearing protector may exceed the daily limit sound level.
