To avoid health risks and reduce the risk of injury:
• Before each use visually inspect the individual components for cracks, chips, tears,
discoloration or deterioration. In the event that damage to the device is observed, please
discontinue use until the parts have been replaced.
• This product cannot be serviced or repaired. Do not repair yourself. Do not modify the
device.
• Never use a damaged device. Replace defective or worn parts.
• Use the device only for its intended purpose as described in these instructions for use.
• Do not use the device while sleeping or overly drowsy.
• If tubing becomes mouldy, discontinue use and replace tubing.
• Do not microwave or boil breast milk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to baby's
mouth from hot spots that develop in the milk during microwaving (Microwaving can also
change the composition of breast milk).
• Clean and sanitize all parts that come into contact with your breast and breast milk prior
to first use.
• Only use Medela recommended parts with the device.
• If pumping is uncomfortable or causing pain, turn the unit off, break the seal between the
breast and the breast shield with your finger and remove the breast shield from your
breast.
• While some discomfort may be felt when first using a breast pump, using a breast pump
should not cause pain. If you are unsure about correct breast shield sizing please visit
www.medela.com or MedelaBreastShields.com (U.S.) or Medela.ca (Canada) or see
a lactation consultant/breastfeeding specialist who can help you get a proper fit.
• Contact your healthcare professional or breastfeeding specialist if you can express only
minimal or no milk or if expression is painful.
• If pumping at high altitudes, including in an airplane, consider pumping more often or
longer if you feel there is milk remaining in your breasts after your pumping session.
Take appropriate care in handling bottles and components:
• Plastic bottles and parts become brittle when frozen and may break when dropped.
• Bottles and parts may become damaged if mishandled (e.g., dropped, over-tightened, or
knocked over).
• Do not use the breast milk from bottles or components that show signs of damage.
