Clean and sanitize all parts of the breast pump before first use as described in chapter ‘Cleaning and
sanitizing’. Clean all parts after each subsequent use and sanitize all parts before each subsequent
use.
assembling the breast pump
Note: Make sure you have cleaned and sanitized all parts of the breast pump. Wash your hands
thoroughly before you handle the cleaned parts.
Be careful, the cleaned parts may still be hot.
Tip: You may find it easier to assemble the breast pump while it is wet.
1 Insert the white valve into the pump body from underneath. Push in the valve as far as
possible (Fig. 2).
2 Screw the pump body clockwise onto the bottle or storage cup until it is securely
fixed (Fig. 3).
Note: If you use a storage cup, you have to screw the adapter onto the storage cup first.
3 Place the silicone diaphragm with stem into the pump body from above. Make sure it fits
securely around the rim by pressing down with your fingers to ensure a perfect seal (Fig. 4).
4 Attach the handle onto the diaphragm with stem by hooking the hole in the handle over the
end of the stem. Push down the handle onto the pump body until it clicks into place (Fig. 5).
5 Place the massage cushion into the funnel-shaped section of the pump body. Push in the inner
part of the massage cushion as far as possible and make sure that it is perfectly sealed all
around the rim of the pump body. Press in between the petals to remove any trapped
air (Fig. 6).
Note: Place the cover over the massage cushion to keep the breast pump clean while you prepare for
expressing.
Using the breast pump
When to express milk
It is advisable (unless advised otherwise by your healthcare professional/breastfeeding advisor) to
wait until your milk supply and breastfeeding schedule are established (normally at least 2 to 4
weeks after giving birth).
Exceptions:
- If you are expressing milk for your baby to be given in hospital.
- If your breasts are engorged (painful or swollen): you can express a small amount of milk before
or between feeds to ease the pain and to help your baby latch on more easily.
- If you have sore or cracked nipples, you may wish to express your milk until they are healed.
