Setup and Usage
Follow these steps to properly set up and use the Alpine Muffy Baby Ear Protection for your child:
- Attach the Ear Cups: With one click, attach each ear cup to the band. Ensure the headband can still move freely through the clips.
- Position the Headband: Turn the headband to the correct position. The stripes on the band should line up with the opening on the clip of each ear cup.
- Adjust for Fit: Adjust the headband using the Velcro fasteners to fit the size of your baby's head. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit without applying pressure to the fontanel.
- Secure on Head: Gently place the earmuffs on your baby's head, ensuring the ear cups fully cover their ears and the headband is centered. Check that it fits properly and is not too tight.

The design ensures that the earmuffs do not apply pressure to the fontanel, which is a soft spot on a baby's skull that remains open for the first 18 months of life. This is crucial for healthy brain development.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your Alpine Muffy Baby Ear Protection, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: The elastic non-slip band and soft padded ear cups are easy to wash. Use a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: After cleaning, allow all components to air dry completely before reassembling or storing.
- Storage: Keep the earmuffs in a dry place, preferably in the provided carrying pouch, to protect them from dust and damage.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Alpine Muffy Baby Ear Protection, consider the following:
- Poor Fit: Ensure the Velcro fasteners are adjusted correctly for your baby's head circumference. The earmuffs should be snug but not tight, and the ear cups should fully cover the ears.
- Reduced Noise Reduction: Check that the ear cups are properly attached to the headband and that there are no gaps around your baby's ears. Ensure the ear cups are clean and free from debris that might affect the seal.
