READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrocution:
l Keep the device dry. Never immerse in water or other liquids!
l Do not spray or pour liquid directly onto the pump unit.
l Do not place or store the device where it can fall or be pulled into a sink or tub.
l Do not use the Lactina breast pump while bathing or showering.
l Do not reach for any electrical device if it has fallen into water. Unplug immediately.
l Always unplug the Lactina breast pump immediately after use.
WARNING: To avoid fire, electrocution or serious burns:
l The Lactina breast pump is not heat-resistant: keep away from radiators and open
flames.
l Do not expose the motor unit to direct sunlight.
I Do not operate the Lactina breast pump where aerosol (spray) products are being used
or where oxygen is being administered.
I Do not use the device in the presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air,
or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
I Do not thaw frozen breast milk, or do not warm breast milk in a microwave or in a pan of
boiling water. Microwaving can cause severe burns to the baby's mouth from hot spots
that develop in the milk during microwaving. Microwaving can also change the composi-
tion of breast milk.
I Use only the power cord that comes with the Lactina breast pump. Make sure the
voltage of the power cord is compatible with the power source.
l Never operate an electrical device if it has a damaged power cord, if it is not working
properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water.
I Always inspect power cord wires prior to use for damage or exposed wire. If any
damage is found, immediately stop using the power cord. Contact the local Medela
representative.
