Troubleshooting - Ardo Calypso Instrucciones De Uso

Encouraging the milk ejection reflex
• When babies start to breastfeed, they suckle with rapid sucking motions and low suction strength – this causes the
milk to release by stimulating the milk ejection reflex. This effect can be replicated by starting with a higher cycle level
(e.g. 8 bars) and selecting a weaker vacuum.
• When the milk begins to release, reduce the cycles by pressing the down arrow and strengthen the vacuum by pressing
the up-arrow until you find the most comfortable level for you.
The milk ejection reflex may occur later when pumping than when breastfeeding. The following measures may be helpful:
• Massage the breast before expressing.
• Relax and think about your baby.
• Gaze at a picture of your baby.
• Apply a warmed compress to the breast before expressing.
• Warm the cone or funnel of the breast shell before applying.
Pumping efficiently
• Massaging the breast while using the breastpump can boost milk production, and promote better flow.
Increasing the quantity of milk
• Use a double pumpset
• For the first 10 minutes, or until no more milk is flowing, use a double pumpset i.e. express from both breasts at once.
Afterwards, switch to a single pumpset. Express from each breast for five minutes while massaging gently.

6. Troubleshooting

In the event of an error, the LED display flashes green and orange alternately.
Further possible errors when using the unit
• Weak or absent vacuum:
Disconnect the pumpset from the unit. Partly close the connector opening (f) with a finger to test the suction. However,
be careful not to completely cover the opening. If suction is detectable, then the pump is working. Test the pumpset in
accordance with the separate instructions for use (only use the original Ardo pumpset).
• The pump is not working / no data on the display:
Check the electrical supply; if the unit still does not work it is defective.
• In the event that one of these errors occurs, and is confirmed, the unit must be brought or sent back to the point of sale.
The unit must be checked out by trained service personnel, or by the manufacturer of the pump unit.
General error
Switch off the unit and re-start. If the error message appears again, the unit is
defective and cannot be repaired.
