Cleaning and Disinfection

Before using the Spectra S1 Plus or S2 Plus breast pump for the first time, disassemble and wash in warm,
soapy water all parts that come into contact with the breast and breastmilk.
2. After Every Use
1. Disassemble and wash all parts of your pump kit that come into contact with the breast and breastmilk
(breast shield kit, valve head, membrane nipple, nipple cover, disk, and cap) in warm water with mild soap. All
parts in the pump kit are dishwasher safe. 2. 2. 2. Rinse in clean water and air-dry.

NOTE: TO PREVENT CONDENSATION FROM COLLECTING IN THE AIR TUBE, WASH AND DRY IT
IMMEDIATELY. IF CONDENSATION REMAINS IN THE AIR TUBE, REPLACE THE TUBING. TO CLEAN THE
MAIN BODY, WE RECOMMEND WIPING WITH A CLEAN, DAMP (NOT WET) CLOTH (NO SOAP).
