The Hazard!
Affected earmuffs may crack on the exterior surface of the cups and reduce the hearing protection effectiveness, meaning there is a risk of over-exposure to noise and possible hearing damage depending on the environment the earmuffs are used in.
What to do...
Step 1: Determine if your earmuff model ID is affected, locate the Model ID printed on the outside of the cup (see image A) - compare the Model ID on the cup to the product list.
If the Model ID matches any in the list, continue to Step 2 - if you do not match any in the table continue to use your product, it is not affected.
Step 2: Locate the manufacturing (mfg) date (MM/YYYY) printed on the outside of the cup (see Figure above) - if the earmuff manufacture date is on or between 03/2020 and 09/2022, continue to Step 3.
Step 3: Contact your local 3M distributor/retailer to coordinate the return of your affected product(s) for replacement product (if available), alternative product or credit.
