Note: Correct placement of the cushion and the silicone diaphragm is
essential for the breast pump to form a proper vacuum.
Note: The figure numbers mentioned below refer to the numbers of the
figures on the back foldout page of this user manual.
1 Insert the white valve into the pump body from underneath. Push the valve
in as far as possible (Fig. 2).
2 Screw the pump body clockwise onto the bottle until it is securely fixed
(Fig. 3).
3 Push the stem into the silicone diaphragm fully to the end (Fig. 4).
4 Insert the silicone diaphragm into the pump body from above. Make sure it
fits securely around the rim by pressing down with your fingers to ensure a
perfect seal (Fig. 5).
5 Attach the handle onto the diaphragm with stem by hooking the hole in
the handle over the end of the stem. Push down the handle onto the pump
body until it clicks into place (Fig. 6).
6 Place the cushion into the pump body (Fig. 7) and make sure that the rim
covers the pump body. Push the inner part of the cushion into the funnel.
Make sure that you push the cushion inwards completely, up to the line
indicated with an arrow on the pump body (Fig. 8).
Using the breast pump
Warning: Always use the breast pump with the cushion.
Note: Contact your healthcare professional in case of questions or if you
experience side effects.
Operating the breast pump
1 Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water and make sure that your
breast is clean.
2 Press the assembled pump body against your breast. Make sure that your
nipple is centered, so that the cushion creates an airtight seal.
3 Gently start to press down the handle until you feel the suction on your
breast (Fig. 9). Then allow the handle to return to its resting position.
Repeat this step rapidly 5 or 6 times to initiate the 'let-down' reflex.
Note: You do not have to press down the handle fully. Press it down as
much as is comfortable for you. Your milk will soon start flowing, even
though you are not using all the suction the pump can generate.
