IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Before use, wearer must read and understand these User Instructions. Keep these instructions for reference.
WARNING
Filtering facepiece particulate respirators are intended to help reduce breathing in airborne particles such as dust.
If you do not follow all instructions and limitations on the use of the respirator and/or do not wear the respirator during
all times of exposure to the airborne particles the respirator may not be as effective. The respirator cannot stop the
breathing in of all particles in the air and does not eliminate the risk of symptoms or sickness. Misuse may result in
sickness or death. For correct use of a respirator, consult the supervisor and User Instructions, or call 3M in the U.S.A.
at 1-800-247-3941.
Read and follow all applicable guidance from relevant health authorities, such as from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) and your local health authority.
If you have pre-existing lung disease such as asthma or emphysema, underlying heart disease such as heart failure, or other health conditions
that may cause difficulty breathing through some respirators, then you should consult your healthcare provider before use.
Standards regulating respirator training and use for the general public have not been established. For your respirator to help reduce the
number of particles you breathe, you must read and follow the User Instructions.
Considerations for Use
3M™ Particulate Filtering Facepiece Respirators are intended to cover the nose and mouth of the wearer to help reduce wearer exposure
to airborne particles.
1. Select the Right Respirator
• 3M respirators are intended and designed for adults. To determine if the respirator fits you, follow the fitting instructions included with
or specific to the respirator. Always check your fit when you wear it.
• 3M N95 respirators are certified by the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). For more information on
NIOSH certification see the NIOSH approval label included in the packaging.
2. When to Wear Your Respirator
• To be most effective, the respirator must be worn whenever you are exposed to the particles to which you wish to reduce your exposure.
3. Use it Correctly
• Although respirators can help reduce the number of particles you breathe (when properly selected and worn), they will not eliminate the
risk of symptoms or sickness.
• Do not alter, abuse or use this respirator other than as stated.
