Technical information

EMC information

The Philips Avent breast pump needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed
and put into service according to the EMC information provided in this section.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the Philips Avent breast pump.
The electronic breast pump has no essential performance. Due to EMC influences, like wireless
home network devices, mobile phones or cordless telephones, the breast pump can turn off or
go into error mode. This will not lead to unacceptable risks. To prevent interference, keep other
electric equipment at least 3.3 feet/1.0 m away from the breast pump during expressing and do not
stack with other electrical equipment. Cable length of the adapter: 2.50 meter/ 8.2 feet.
Follow below guidelines if you experience too much suction with your
breast pump:
- Make sure you only use the Philips Avent comfort breast pump's parts.
- Make sure you have assembled the comfort breast pump with the
massage cushion: not using the massage cushion can result in too much
vacuum.
- When using a breast pump for the first time, you may experience the
suction level as too high at first. Practising can help.If the problem
persists, consult your breastfeeding advisor.
