• Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching breast pump and breasts, and avoid
touching the inside of containers or lids.
• Separate and wash all parts that come in contact with breast milk immediately after use to avoid
drying of breast milk residue and to prevent growth of bacteria. Always inspect breast shield,
connector, valve and membrane prior to use for cleanliness.
• Only use drinking-quality tap or bottled water for cleaning your breast pump and parts.
WARNING! To avoid health risk and reduce chance of injury:
• This product is intended for use by a single user only and should not be shared between users.
• Do not drive while pumping.
• Never use while pregnant, as pumping can induce labor.
• Clean and sanitize all parts that come in contact with your breast and breast milk prior to first use.
• Wash all parts that come in contact with your breast and breast milk after every use.
• Do not store wet or damp parts as mold may develop.
• Inspect all appropriate pump components before each use.
• Do NOT continue pumping for more than 2 consecutive pumping sessions if no results are achieved.
• While some discomfort may be felt when first using a breast pump, using a breast pump should
not cause pain.
• If you are experiencing discomfort at the base of the nipple due to rubbing of your breast tissue
with the breast shield tunnel, discontinue use and contact your healthcare professional or lactation
consultant.
• For assistance with correct breast shield sizing and comfort, please contact a healthcare
professional or lactation consultant, or contact customer service at 1-833-224-7675 in the US or
Canada. Outside of the US and Canada, please contact your local distributor.
• Contact your healthcare professional or lactation consultant if you can express only minimal or no
milk or if expression is painful.
• Do not try and express with vacuum that is too high and uncomfortable (painful). The pain, along
with potential breast and nipple trauma, may decrease milk output.
• Do not thaw frozen breast milk in a microwave or in a pan of boiling water.
• Do not microwave breast milk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to baby’s mouth from hot
spots that develop in the milk during microwaving. (Microwaving can also change the composition of
breast milk.)
