To change your pumping rhythm
If at any time you want to change your pumping rhythm, press the control
button and the pump will revert to manual pumping. The light will turn back
to solid GREEN. You can now pump manually until you are comfortable again.
Then press the control button again and the single electronic breast pump will
continue your chosen rhythm.
To stop pumping
When you want to stop pumping, press the control handle and break the seal
between the breast and the pump body with your finger. To switch off the
pump, press and hold the control button for 2 seconds until the light turns off,
then unplug the mains power lead from the wall socket. If you're using the
battery pack, disconnect from the control handle. If you forget to turn the pump
off, it will switch itself off after 3 minutes to save battery power.
Battery Life
Batteries will last for approximately 6 hours. The light on the control handle
will display a slow pulsing flash to warn you when it is time to replace them.
There will be enough power for approximately 1 more pumping session, with
no drop-off in performance, before the pump switches itself off.
To collect and store your milk
After you have expressed your milk, unscrew the pump
body from the milk container (e). If you're using Philips
AVENT breast milk containers, insert a sealing disc (o) into
the screw ring (m) and twist it onto the milk container. If
you're using VIA, unscrew the adaptor and screw a lid onto
the cup.
On average you will need to pump for 10 minutes to
express 60-125ml/2-4oz. However, this is just a guide
and varies from woman to woman. If you find that you
regularly express more than 125ml/4oz per session,
you can use a 260ml/9oz Philips AVENT breast milk
container or a 240ml/8oz VIA Cup.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge or freezer in either
sterile breast milk containers (125ml/4oz or 260ml/9oz or
330ml fitted with sealing discs) or in pre-sterilised VIA Cups.

Do not overfill the milk container and be sure to keep it upright, otherwise
it may leak.
Expressed milk should be refrigerated immediately.
Only milk collected with a sterile pump should be stored to be fed to your baby.
Expressed breast milk can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours
(not in the door) or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
If you are storing freshly expressed milk in the fridge to add to during the day,
only add milk which has been expressed into a sterile container. Milk can only
be kept like this for a maximum of 48 hours from first expression, after which
it must be used immediately or frozen for future use.
Frozen breast milk can be defrosted overnight in the refrigerator, heated
gradually in warm water or heated with a Philips AVENT bottle and
baby food warmer.
NB:
• NEVER refreeze breast milk.
• DO NOT add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk.
• ALWAYS discard any milk that is left over at the end of a feed.
Never heat milk in a microwave as this may destroy valuable nutrients and
antibodies. In addition, the uneven heating may cause hot spots in the liquid
which could cause burns to the throat.
Never immerse a frozen milk container or VIA Cup in boiling water as this
may cause it to crack/split.
Never put boiling water directly into a VIA Cup, allow to cool for around
20 minutes before filling.
Disassembly
Ensure the power is switched off at the wall socket
and disconnect the mains power lead or battery pack
from the control handle. Pull the control handle directly
upwards away from the diaphragm then unhook
it from the stem by moving it towards the funnel.
