Caution
Never wash or sterilise the pump
•
motor, the silicone tube, the cap,
and the power adapter. These
components do not come into
contact with your breast milk. You
can wipe those parts clean with a
soft cloth.
You can also use the dishwasher
(top rack only) or hand wash in
warm, soapy water, and then rinse
thoroughly. We recommend you to
sterilise all the parts contacting with
breast milk in our Philips Avent steam
steriliser, or by boiling for 5 minutes.
Avoid to contact with the vessel
directly to protect the parts from
deformation.
Caution
Take care when cleaning the valve
•
and the silicone diaphragm. If it
gets damaged, your breast pump
will not function properly.
To clean the valve, rub it gently
•
between your fingers in warm
soapy water. Do not insert objects
as this may cause damage.
