This device prioritizes convenience, hygiene, and user comfort, making it a practical choice for mothers seeking a discreet and efficient pumping experience.

Function Description:

The primary function of the imani i2 Plus is to facilitate breast milk expression. It operates as a personal breast pump that fits inside a bra, allowing for hands-free operation. The adjustable suction levels enable users to customize their pumping experience to match their comfort and milk flow, ensuring efficient milk collection. The pump is designed to be discreet, allowing mothers to pump in various settings without the need for external tubes or bottles. It includes a main pump body and a collection cup system that integrates seamlessly for milk collection. The device also features an automatic shut-off function, which can be customized, to prevent over-pumping and conserve battery life.

Usage Features:

The imani i2 Plus is designed for ease of use from initial setup to daily operation.

• Hands-Free Design: The core feature is its in-bra, hands-free design, which allows mothers to multitask while pumping. This is achieved through a compact main pump body and a collection cup that fits comfortably within a bra.
• Adjustable Suction: Users can adjust the suction intensity to find the most comfortable and effective level for their individual needs. This customization is crucial for maximizing milk expression and preventing discomfort.
• Intuitive Controls: The pump features simple controls for power, massage mode, and suction level adjustment. The power button turns the device on and off, while the '+' and '-' buttons are used to increase or decrease suction.
• Automatic Shut-Off: The device is programmed to automatically turn off after 20 minutes of operation. This duration can be adjusted by the user, ranging from 10 to 40 minutes in 5-minute increments, providing flexibility based on individual pumping sessions. To change the automatic shut-off time, users press the power button, then simultaneously press the '+' and '-' buttons for about 5 seconds, adjust the time using '+' and '-', and finally press the power button again to save.
• Charging Indicator: When charging, the cap should be turned clockwise to ensure proper connection. When in use, the cap should be closed.
• Milk Pouring Method: A specific method is recommended for pouring milk from the collection cup to prevent backflow and spillage. Users are instructed to place the cup on a flat surface, open the cap carefully, and then gently squeeze the breast shield while angling the cup to pour milk into a bottle. This method ensures that milk is transferred efficiently and hygienically.
• Assembly: The hands-free cup set consists of several parts: a valve, protector, connector, insert, funnel, collection cup, and cap. Assembly involves connecting these parts in a specific sequence. The connector and valve must be aligned correctly. The connector is inserted into the cup, followed by firmly pressing the protector onto the cup, ensuring the valve is properly aligned. Finally, the funnel is assembled. The device can be used as a hands-free pump or connected to another pump via a hose.
• Portability: Its compact size and in-bra design make it highly portable, allowing mothers to pump at home, work, or while traveling without drawing attention.

Maintenance Features:

Maintaining the imani i2 Plus involves specific cleaning and sterilization procedures to ensure hygiene and longevity of the device.

• Sterilization Before First Use: Prior to the first use, all parts except the main pump body must be sterilized in boiling water. Once the water reaches boiling point, the heat should be turned off, and the accessories submerged for 3-5 minutes.
• Boiling Water Sterilization: For ongoing sterilization, a pot large enough to accommodate all parts without them touching the sides is recommended. If the pot is too small, parts may warp or get damaged. After the water boils, the heat is turned off, and parts are submerged for 3-5 minutes. Stirring occasionally is advised to prevent parts from touching each other or the pot's sides for extended periods.
• Important Sterilization Warnings:
  • Parts should not be boiled for more than 5 minutes, as prolonged heat exposure can cause damage.
  • The device is not suitable for microwave or steam sterilization methods. Users are warned that some steam and microwave sterilizers can reach high temperatures, potentially warping plastic parts.
  • The main pump body should never be submerged in water or sterilized, as this can damage the electronic components.
• Parts to be Cleaned and Disinfected: The valve, protector, connector, insert, funnel, collection cup, and cap are the components that require regular cleaning and disinfection. The cap is not included in all breast pump components but is part of the hands-free cup set.
• User Manual Availability: A comprehensive user manual is available for download on the legendairymilk.com website, providing detailed instructions for all aspects of the device's use and maintenance. This ensures users have access to complete information for proper care and operation.

The imani i2 Plus is designed to offer a convenient, efficient, and hygienic breast pumping solution, integrating seamlessly into a mother's daily routine with its discreet and user-friendly features.
