Device Operation - Medela Pump In Style Advanced Mode D'emploi

3. Pumping
Caution
• Always inspect breastshield,
breastshield connectors, white
membranes, yellow valves, and tubing
prior to use for cleanliness. If dirty, see
Section 1.2.
• If you experience pain or other
symptoms while pumping seek advice
from your healthcare professional or
breastfeeding specialist. See Section 7
for more information.
• Do not try and express with vacuum
that is too high and uncomfortable
(painful). The pain, along with potential
breast and nipple trauma may decrease
milk output.
• Make sure tubing is not kinked or
pinched while pumping.
info
• Research has shown that you will
pump more efficiently – get more
milk in less time – when pumping at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum ™ during the
Expression Phase.
• You should reassess your Maximum
Comfort Vacuum throughout your
pumping experience because it can
change during the different stages of
lactation.
• Do not tilt or overfill containers when
pumping.
