Pumping
VI
Be comfortably seated and relax. Use a footrest, when pumping or when feeding your
baby. Elevating your feet puts you into proper sitting position to avoid stress on the lower
back and perineum.

Center your breastshield over your nipple.
• Do not tilt or overfill bottles when pumping.
• Take care not to kink tubing while pumping.
Switch on the breastpump by pressing the On/Off button.
The pump will begin pumping in the Stimulation Phase.
Adjust the vacuum during pumping to your comfort level by
turning the one-knob control clockwise (increase) or counter-
clockwise (decrease).
Once your milk starts to flow or you sense milk ejection, press
the let-down button to switch to the Expression Phase.
If you do not press the let-down button, the pump will auto-
matically switch to the Expression Phase after two minutes.
Set your Maximum Comfort Vacuum™ which is the
highest vacuum you can use and still feel comfortable (this
is different for every mother). To find your Maximum Comfort
Vacuum increase vacuum until pumping feels slightly un-
comfortable (not painful), then decrease slightly.
Research has shown that you will pump more efficiently
– meaning get more milk in less time – when pumping at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum™ in the Expression Phase.
Once finished pumping, switch off the breastpump, unplug
it, and disassemble the pump kit items. Close the bottle and
store it for later use.
Use bottle stand to prevent tip over.
