3M EARPLUG
FITTING GUIDE
CAUTION: Unless you have talked with your
physician, do not wear earplugs if there is any
drainage from your ear or if you have a hole in
your eardrum.
Wear hearing protection at all times when exposed to
loud noise. There is no such thing as "partial" hearing
protection.
If earplugs are removed and ears are subjected to loud
noise for just a few minutes, less protection is given and
hearing loss could develop.
Allow time to get used to wearing earplugs. Wearing
earplugs will become more familiar after the first few
uses.
1. With clean hands, roll
(don't squeeze) the earplug
between thumb and
first two fingers until the
diameter of the plug is as
small as possible.
(See Figure 1)
2. Reach over head with the
opposite hand and pull the
top of ear to open the ear
canal. (See Figure 2)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DISPOSABLE EARPLUGS
Figure 1
Figure 2
Switch between earplugs and ear muffs, gradually
increasing the time that earplugs are worn each day
until they become comfortable to wear at all times.
Wear clean earplugs. When foam earplugs get
dirty, replace them with a clean pair. When reusable
earplugs get dirty, wash them with mild soap and warm
water, then rinse well.
Look closely at earplugs before each use. Wear new
foam earplugs every day. Examine the earplugs before
putting them in your ears.
For both disposable and reusable earplugs, discard
earplugs if they show a tear or other damage.
3. While holding the ear open,
quickly push the rolled end
of the plug into the ear as
far as possible. Keep one
finger on the end of the
plug for about 10 seconds
until the plug expands to
seal the ear. (See Figure 3)
4. When properly positioned,
the disposable earplug
should seal the ear closed.
