5. Cleaning

Caution
12
l Only use drinking-quality water for
cleaning.
l Take apart and wash all parts that come
in contact with the breast and breastmilk
immediately after use to avoid dry up of
milk residues and to prevent growth of
bacteria.
Note
l The pump set requires no
maintenance.
l Take care not to damage parts of the
pump set during cleaning.
l If the individual parts of the pump set are
cleaned in a dishwasher, parts may be
discoloured by food pigments. This has
no impact on the function.
l Inspect the tubing after each pumping
session for condensation and/or milk.
Follow the instructions on page 30 if
there is condensation or milk in the
tubing.
* Medela recommends to clean all parts
of the pump set (incl. tubing, etc.)
before used for the first time as shown
in Chapter 5.2.
5.1 Before using for the first
time and after every use
1
Disassemble the pump set
into individual parts (see
diagram). The tubing, protec-
tive membrane and cap do not
normally need to be washed.*

Rinse all parts with cold,
clear water (approx. 20 °C)
for 10 –15 seconds.
