How to clean and sterilise your
pump
(see diagram A)
NEVER WASH OR STERILISE…
the control handle (a), battery pack (i)
or mains power lead (j).
These components DO NOT come
into contact with your breast milk.
You can wipe the control
handle clean, using a soft cloth.
Cleaning and sterilising the pump body
and breast milk storage components
Before you use your breast pump for the first time and every time before use:
Separate all parts, then wash in the dishwasher or in warm soapy water and rinse.
Do not use antibacterial or abrasive cleaners/detergents.
Caution: Take care when cleaning the white valve. If it gets
damaged, your breast pump will not function properly. To clean
the white valve, rub it gently between your fingers in warm
soapy water. Do not insert objects as this may cause damage.
Sterilise all parts in a Philips AVENT steam steriliser or by boiling for 5 minutes.
If using a Philips AVENT steam steriliser, the pump will remain sterile in the
steriliser for a minimum of 6 hours, provided the lid is not removed.
Keeping your pump sterilised
and compact for travel
After sterilising all parts, insert the white valve and diaphragm
into the pump body. Clip the funnel cover (h) over the funnel
and Let-down Massage Cushion (g) and screw the sealing base
(n) onto the pump body (d) in place of the milk container.
