1. Insert the membrane into the bottom piece (the piece that
connects to the breastshield) as illustrated to the right. Ensure
that it fits snugly into and curl the membrane lip around the rim
of the bottom piece.
2. Fit the top piece (the piece that connects to the tubing) over the
bottom piece and membrane by pressing the bottom snugly into
the rim of the top piece.
Correctly assembling the backflow protector is so important. It prevents milk
and moisture from entering your tubing which can cause irreparable damage
to the motor, or worse, mould! Ensure that the backflow protector has been
sterilized and allowed to completely dry on a clean paper towel prior to
assembly. The backflow protector does not need to be cleaned or sterilized
prior to each use - only if moisture should enter the component. Always
inspect the backflow protector for moisture and damage prior to pumping.
Membranes should be replaced regularly.
