Problem Solution
The suction of the breast
pump is too strong.
- If possible, try a lower suction level. When you express for the rst time, start
with the default suction level (level 5 in stimulation mode, level 11 in expression
mode) and increase/decrease the level when needed. During dierent expression
sessions, dierent levels may feel most comfortable for you.
- Make sure that you only use the breast pump parts provided with this breast pump.
- Check if the silicone diaphragm is not damaged (does not have small cracks,
holes etc.).
- If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center via
www.philips.com/support.
I express little/no milk when I
use my breast pump.
- If you do not feel enough suction, please check Troubleshooting item 'I do not feel
any suction/the suction level is too low'.
- If you are using the Philips Avent breast pump for the rst time, you may need
some practice before you are able to express any milk. More expressing tips can
be found on the Philips Avent website www.philips.com/avent.
When I switch on the
breast pump after storage,
it does not start working
immediately.
- Make sure that the battery is fully charged (see 'Charging the breast pump')
or connect the breast pump to the wall socket.
- Perhaps you stored the breast pump at a temperature below the minimum storage
temperature or above the maximum storage temperature. Let the breast pump
acclimatize in a room of 20 °C/68 °F for 30 minutes to adjust its temperature to the
operating range (5 °C/41 °F to 40 °C/104 °F).
The display shows ‘Er’ and
the device switches o
automatically.
- If you are operating the breast pump on battery power, let it cool down for
30 minutes and try to switch it on again.
- If you are operating the breast pump with the adapter connected to the wall
socket, check if you are using the adapter that was supplied with the device.
- If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center via
www.philips.com/support.
