Important User Information - Peltor SportTac MT16H210F Serie Mode D'emploi

SportTac
Peltor SportTac has an audio input for connecting an external radio, and a level dependent function
that amplifies weak sounds and attenuates loud ones. The external communication and level
dependent functions are independent of each other, which ensures extra good reliability and better
safety. The hearing protector has been tested and approved according to PPE directive 89/686/EEC
and EMC directive 89/336/EEC, which means that it meets the demands for CE labelling.
Read these instructions carefully to ensure the best possible benefit from your new Peltor product.
FUNCTIONS (A)
• The latest settings are stored at shut-off.
• Automatic shut-off after two hours of no active functions. Two warning signals are emitted
every ten seconds for one minute after 1:59 hours of use, to indicate that the unit will switch
off.
• Low battery power is indicated with three warning signals ten hours before the headset will
switch off. The interval between the warning signals will then decrease as the power of the
battery weakens.
Always switch off the headset before replacing batteries
WARNING! Performance may deteriorate with battery usage.
The typical period of continuous use that can be expected from this product is 600 hours. Continous
use is defined as 20% use in silent noise 45-50dB(A), 60% use in medium noise 70-75dB(A) and
20% use in high noise 95-100dB(A). The expected battery life time can vary with battery brand and
the temperature in which the product is being used.
• Polarity protection prevents damage to circuits if the batteries are inserted incorrectly.
• Equipped with an audio input via a chassis jack for connecting an external radio.
• When the level dependent function is on, the amplification is toned down when an external
signal comes in through the audio input.
• A summery stage ensures that the combined sound level of all incoming audio signals inside
the cup never exceeds 82 dB.

IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION

The hearing protector must be put on, adjusted, cleaned and maintained in accordance with the
instructions in this manual.
• This ear-muff is provided with level-dependent attenuation. The wearer should check correct
operation before use. If distortion or failure is detected, the wearer should refer to the
manufacturers advice for maintenance and replacement of the battery
• Wear the headset 100% of the time you spend in noisy environments for full protection.
• This product may be adversely affected by certain chimical substances. Further information
should be sought from the manufacurer.
• This ear-muff is provided with electrical audio input. The wearer should check correct operation
before use. If distortion or failure is detected, the wearer should refer to the manufacturers
advice.
• When interference increases or the volume becomes too weak, it is time to replace the
batteries. Never replace or install batteries with the unit switched on. Ensure that the battery is
positioned correctly before using. See the figure in the CARE section.
• 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.
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 dalily
limit sound level.
