On the flaps of the Ardo Melia retail box there are templates you can use to measure the diameter
of your nipples.
Cut off the flaps and measure the diameter of your nipples. This makes it easy to find the correct size of breast shell (a) or breast
shell insert (e) where needed.
If your nipple rubs uncomfortably against the inner side of the funnel, use a larger breast shell (a). If the areola is also sucked into
the funnel, use a smaller breast shell insert (e).
Two breast shells (a) in size 24 mm and two breast shell inserts (e) in size 19 mm are included in delivery. Breast shells in size 27
mm and breast shell inserts in size 17 mm are also available for the Ardo Melia (see also section 12), subject to change.

Possible problems and troubleshooting
Weak or no vacuum:
•
Ensure that the Ardo Melia is correctly assembled, in particular check whether the rim of the breast shell (a) is fully pulled
over the edge of the collection cup (f) (press firmly into place with both hands). Also check whether the lip valve (h) is
correctly aligned.
•
Ensure that the individual parts are not damaged, particularly the lip valve (h).
Pain when expressing:
•
Ensure that the nipple is in the middle of the funnel.
•
Check that the size of the breast shell (a) / breast shell insert (e) is right for your nipples.
•
Check that the vacuum intensity is not set too high.
•
Contact a professional for help.
