This is how to insert disposable earplugs correctly:
1. Roll the plug up as small as possible, ensuring it is crease-free. Make sure your hands are clean.

2. Reach over your head with your free hand and pull the ear upwards and backwards. Insert the plug deeply into the auditory canal.

3.& 4. Hold the plug firmly for approx. 30–40 seconds until it has fully expanded within the auditory canal. The earplug is correctly fitted in the ear if nothing is visible when viewed from the front.

This is the correct way to remove and dispose of earplugs:
When removing the earplug, pull it slowly out of the auditory canal with a slight twisting action. After use, disposable earplugs should be disposed of in the correct manner.
