Defrosting
• Thaw milk overnight in the refrigerator, or hold the bottle under warm
running water to quickly thaw. You can also place the sealed container
in a bowl of warm water for 20 minutes to bring it to body temperature.
Thawed milk is safe in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Do not refreeze.
•
Caution:
• Do not thaw frozen breastmilk in a microwave or in a pan of boiling
water.
• Never microwave breastmilk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to
baby's mouth from hot spots that develop in the milk during microwav-
ing. Microwaving can also change the composition of breastmilk.
• If adding expressed breastmilk to container of already frozen breast-
milk, make sure to add a lesser amount than the already frozen
amount.

Troubleshooting

A. If There Is Low or No Suction:
1. Make sure all connections of the kit and pump are secure.
2. Make sure the breastshield forms a complete seal around the breast.
3. Make sure the white membrane is laying flat against the yellow valve.
Check that the yellow valve is clean and not damaged. Refer to
assembly instructions on page 3.
4. Make sure the tubing end fit securely into the pump body and
motor.
5. Take care not to kink tubing. If milk is getting into tubing, check that
the tubing is not kinked or pinched.
B. Other troubleshooting:
When traveling outside the U.S., use battery power only.
If you experience discomfort while pumping, contact a
breastfeeding specialist.

C. If milk accidentally gets into the motor:
Turn off the pump and unplug from the power
source. Use a damp (not wet) cloth to wipe the
motor and proceed as follows:
1. Remove battery compartment cover from
bottom of motor.
2. Remove small, black foam piece from
bottom of pump.
3. Rinse the foam piece with clear lukewarm
water, and squeeze out excess water.
Allow to dry thoroughly before inserting
back into pump.
4. Pour about 2 ounces of warm soapy water
into a container.
5. Connect the tubing to the motor, leaving the
other end unconnected.
6. Connect the power cord to the motor, then plug into electrical
outlet (do not power with battery).
7. Hold the end of the tubing that is not connected
to the pump in the container with the soapy water.
8. Hold the motor over a dry sink and switch on. The water will
pump through the tubing into the motor and flow out through the
opening beneath the battery cover. Allow it to pump until all the
water has been flushed through.
9. Repeat this procedure again with 2 ounces of warm clear water.
10. Leave the motor switched on for an additional 3 minutes so it
dries completely.
11. As soon as the foam piece is dry, put it in place again, and
re-install the battery compartment cover.
12. If necessary, clean the pump kit according to cleaning instructions.
