13. Troubleshooting Guide
Lack of suction
Check that all the pump components have been assembled
correctly and that the white star valve is facing up with the
flatside into the bottle. Ensure that the diaphragm and
let-down massage cushion are fitted securely to the pump
body and a perfect seal is created.
No milk being expressed
Ensure suction is created and the pump is
correctly assembled.
Relax and try again, expression may improve after practice.
Please refer to the 'Hints to help you succeed' section.
Pain when expressing
You may be pumping too hard. You do not need to use
all the suction the pump can generate.
Try depressing the handle halfway and remember the
2-3 second pumping rhythm. Consult your health
professional/breastfeeding adviser.

more frequently to empty the breast milk into the storage
container. Refer to "How to use your AVENT ISIS Breast Pump".
