2. Important Safety Information

Your child's safety is paramount. These earmuffs are designed to reduce noise exposure and are compliant with ANSI S3.19-1974 and CE EN 352-1 standards, offering a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 25dB. This rating indicates the average amount of noise reduction provided when worn correctly.

• Noise Reduction: The earmuffs effectively reduce harmful noise levels without completely blocking all sounds. This allows your child to maintain situational awareness, which is crucial in many environments.
• Appropriate Use: Ideal for environments such as monster truck shows, sports events, concerts, fireworks displays, airplane travel, and for children with autism or sensory sensitivities.
• Warning: Continuous exposure to noise levels above 85dB can cause permanent hearing damage. Always ensure the earmuffs are worn correctly in noisy environments.

2. Position Ear Cups: Place the ear cups over your child's ears, ensuring they fully cover the ears. The cups can rotate 360 degrees for optimal positioning.
3. Fine-Tune Fit: Slide the headband up or down slightly to achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
4. Ensure Seal: Confirm that each ear cup's cushion forms a firm, snug seal around the ear. There should be no gaps between the cushion and the head, as this can compromise noise reduction.
