Using Your Breast Pump

Using The Controls
Turn on the pump by pressing the "ON" button D.
The pump will turn on at the highest speed and lowest suction
setting to help stimulate your first letdown (milk release).
When milk starts to flow, decrease speed A and increase suction D to the
highest comfortable setting. If uncomfortable, turn suction down slightly.
When milk flow slows, increase speed B and maintain suction setting.
When milk begins to flow again, decrease speed A halfway. If desired,
repeat this step for additional letdowns.
Turn off the pump. After breast milk has been expressed, decrease suction
C to the lowest setting. Release button, then press and hold the "OFF"
button C until pump turns off (approximately 1 to 2 seconds). If necessary,
slide a finger between the flange and your breast to break any remaining
suction, then remove the flange.
TIP: Some users find that using the highest speed with the highest comfortable suction through-
out the pumping session yields the most amount of milk in the shortest amount of time.
IMPORTANT: If you feel pain in your breast or nipple, turn the pump off (see above) or slide a
finger between the flange and your breast to immediately break the suction. If you feel discom-
fort at every suction level, turn the pump off and contact your healthcare provider for assistance.
NOTE: Pump will automatically shut off after 40 minutes. Do not overfill the 5-ounce collection
bottle; when freezing your milk for storage, space is needed in the bottle for the milk to expand.

Using Your Breast Pump
Carefully unscrew bottle G from flange.
You may now transfer milk into your
preferred milk storage container, such as
breast milk storage bags, or you can store
your milk directly in the milk collection
bottle. Place the sealing disc H into the cap
ring I and screw onto the bottle securely.
(see page 14 for information on storing
breast milk)
Note: When using as a single pump on one
breast at a time, repeat steps 1 through 3 on
your other breast.
Tip: If you are experiencing difficulty
expressing your first letdown, try to
stimulate your first letdown reflex using
these steps:
• Relax and think about your baby.
• Gently massage your breasts,
starting nearest your ribs and
working down toward the nipple.
• Apply warm, moist compresses;
continue until you can hand-
express a few drops of milk.
