USING THE MILK PUMP:
• Place the device and the feeding bottle in the holder and put it in a
place where it cannot tip over and can be reached easily.
• Join the adapter to the mains (230V or 120V), and then to the vacuum
pump.
• Place the breast bell on the breast, and then close the hole of the bleed
pipe by holding the bleed pipe between the vacuum pump and the feed-
ing bottle between the thumb and the index finger. After a short while
milk will appear in the feeding bottle. By turning the bleed pipe between
the thumb and index finger and quickly turning it back, the vacuum can
be regulated. If you release the bleed pipe the vacuum will cease and
the bell will fall off the breast. The other option is you remove the bleed
pipe together with the 100 mm silicone tube and directly attach the 450
mm tube to the pump and to the feeding bottle. In this case the bell will
cling to the breast and both hands will remain free to massage the
breast. In this case the vacuum can be regulated by either pressing the
breast next to the bell, or by moving the bell to allow air into it.
• The feeding bottle can be filled to a maximum two thirds capacity.
• After use turn off the device and detach the adapter from the mains.
CLEANING AND STERILISING THE DEVICE:
• Wipe the vacuum pump with a cloth slightly dampened with diluted
detergent. Make sure no water gets into the device. The other parts
(feeding bottle, sealing ring, insert with double outlet, breast bell, sil-
icone tube coming into contact with milk) should be washed with
ample solution of warm water and detergent, rinsed, then boiled for
30 minutes to sterilise and allowed to drip dry.
• The breast bell holder should not be boiled as it might become
deformed.
