Operating Instructions

1. Power On/Off

Locate the power button on one of the ear cups. Press and hold the button for a few seconds to power the earmuffs on or off. An audible cue or indicator light will confirm the status.

2. Bluetooth Pairing

1. Ensure the earmuffs are powered on.
2. Activate Bluetooth on your mobile device (phone, tablet, etc.).
3. Search for available Bluetooth devices and select "PROHEAR 030" from the list.
4. Once paired, you can stream audio wirelessly.

3. Volume Control

The earmuffs feature independent volume controls for ambient sound amplification and Bluetooth audio. Adjust the respective controls to your preferred listening levels. It is recommended to keep ambient sound amplification at a level that allows you to hear important environmental cues while protecting against harmful loud noises.

4. Hearing Protection & Environmental Awareness

The NRR 22dB / SNR 27dB rating ensures significant noise reduction. The dual microphones are designed to amplify low-level sounds (under 82 dB) to enhance situational awareness, while instantly suppressing loud impulse noises (like gunshots) within 0.01 seconds to protect your hearing.
