Troubleshooting

If milk accidentally gets into the tubing/motor,
immediately follow these steps:

Remove motor from the breastshield.

Wipe milk off the motor with a paper towel or tissue.

Run motor for at least 30 seconds to clear out any milk that remains inside.

Repeat step 2. Take special care to clean the vent holes in the front and side
of the motor.

Clean the breastshield where it attaches to the motor.

Put the motor back on the breastshield and resume pumping. When pumping is
completed, repeat these steps.

If There Is No Vacuum Power

If you do not feel any vacuum at the breast or if the pumping
action is too weak:

Check that the breastshield forms a complete seal around the breast.

Check to see that the white membrane is securely seated into the valve head on the
underside of the breastshield frame. Ensure that membrane is clean and that the flap
is moveable and not dried onto the valve head.

For single pumping, check to see that the single adapter plug is firmly secured into the
plug-in port on the breastshield/ motor unit.

For double pumping, Be sure that the tubing ends are firmly seated into their
appropriate plug-in points.

Check that the gaskets are clean and dry.

Check with fresh batteries or electrical if not powering unit with batteries.

Check that the connector tube is firmly plugged into the breastshield.

Insert the metal plug on the
end of the transformer cord
into the hole on the side of
the motor unit.

(Use only Medela trans-
former #9200013).

Center the shield(s) over
your nipple(s). Start the
pump using the “ON/OFF”
switch on the back of the
motor.

NOTE:

Be sure to push

switch all the way to the top
to assure adequate suction.

Begin pumping with the
vacuum regulator set on
“MIN” and gradually
increase to your comfort
level.

Pumping Tips

It is important that you be as comfort-

able and relaxed as possible when
pumping. Learning relaxation tech-
niques may be helpful. Many mothers
find that focusing on a photograph of
their baby is useful.

When double pumping, it may take

about 10-15 minutes to collect milk
from both breasts. Single pumping may
take 10-15 minutes per side.

The following steps of
caution should be followed
to prevent milk overflowing
into the motor:

Care should be taken not to
over fill the container(s).

Do not tilt or lay the container
down when milk is in it
and the tubing is attached.

Remove the tubing from the
breastshield before laying
the breastshield down.
