The sonata shows a full charge icon but is unresponsive. I tried plugging it in and holding down the power button to reset with no response. The fully charge icon is still lit.

If your Medela Sonata is unresponsive despite showing a full charge, try resetting it. Plug in the breast pump and hold down the power button for up to 10 seconds or until the display flashes. If the issue persists, contact Medela for further assistance.
