IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

For 3M™ Filtering Facepiece Respirators Being Used by the General Public for Cleanup Activities from Natural

Disasters. (Keep this bulletin for future 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.

IMPORTANT

If you have pre-existing lung disease such as asthma or emphysema, underlying heart disease such as heart failure or other health conditions,

you may have difficulty breathing through some respirators and should consult your healthcare provider before use.

Standards regulating respirator training 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 this bulletin.11
