How to use your pump
(see diagram E)
Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean. Relax in a
comfortable chair, leaning slightly forward (use cushions to support your back).
Make sure you have a glass of water nearby as expressing can be thirsty work.
A photograph of your baby will help too.
To begin pumping
1. Switch on at the wall socket if using mains power. To turn the pump on, press
and hold the control button for 2 seconds. The light on the top of the control
handle will flash
ORANGE and then turn to a solid GREEN to indicate that the
pump is ready to use. If at any time the light is flashing red, stop and consult
the ‘Troubleshooting guide’.
2. Bring the assembled pump to your breast. Position the cushion firmly onto
your breast so as to create a perfect seal (ensure no strand of hair or piece
of clothing is trapped). Using the control handle you can find your exact
comfort level. As you press down on the handle, you will feel greater suction
against your breast. You don’t need to squeeze the handle fully, only as far
as feels comfortable for you.
3. Once comfortable, begin by gently squeezing the handle 5 or 6 times quite
quickly, simulating the rapid suckling you usually feel when your baby is first
put to the breast. Your milk will soon begin to flow and you can establish
a slower, comfortable pumping pattern. Many mothers find that holding
down the handle for 2 to 3 seconds at a time imitates the feeling of their
baby breastfeeding.
4. When you have established a comfortable pumping rhythm with at least
2 squeezes, simply press the control button on the handle, and the Electronic
Breast Pump will automatically continue in the same way. The light on the
control handle will turn from solid
GREEN to a flashing GREEN . Your pattern
will now be stored in the pump’s memory – even after the pump has been
switched off!
How to assemble your pump
(see diagram D)
1. With clean hands, insert the white valve (c) into the pump body (d) from the
bottom making sure that the pointed side of the valve faces downwards.
2. Twist the milk container (e) onto the pump body (d) until securely in place.
3. To ensure the pump doesn’t topple, insert the 125ml/4oz milk container
into the stand provided (f).
4. Place the silicone diaphragm (b) into the pump body (d), making sure
it fits securely around the edge, to create a seal (this is easier if the
diaphragm is wet).
5. Carefully insert the Let-down Massage Cushion (g) into the pump body
(d), making sure it completely covers the edge of the funnel (this is easier
if the Let-down Massage Cushion is wet).
6. Firmly push the control handle (a) onto the pump body (d) so that it sits
securely on top of the silicone diaphragm (b).
7. For mains use connect the mains power lead (j) to the control handle (a)
and plug into an electrical wall socket.
8. For battery use, open the top of the battery pack (i) and insert 4 x AA
batteries. Connect the power lead to the control handle (a).
