Solution
• You pressed the On/Off button for too short or too long
a time.
• Press the On/Off button until you hear an audio signal,
then release it. If the pump is in storage mode, it will take
somewhat longer (approx. one second) until the audio
signal is emitted.
• If your pump has not been used in a while and it does not
start as usual, it might be in hibernation mode.
• To reset your breast pump, press and hold the On/Off
button (on the side) for seven to ten seconds.
• If there is no change, make sure that the breast pump
is connected to a properly working power supply.
• If there is still no change, contact the Medela Customer
Service.
• Contact the Medela Customer Service.
• Make sure that the breast pump is switched on.
• Contact the Medela Customer Service.
• Contact the Medela Customer Service.
• The breast pump refuses operation due to battery
over-heating. Allow the motor unit to cool down,
then restart the breast pump.
• Charging is not possible when the battery
temperature is too high. Allow the motor unit
to cool down, then resume charging.
