8. Maintenance / Care / Cleaning
The silicone pot integrated into the Pumpset ("Vacuum Seal" technology) ensures that no breast milk or air can get into the
tube or Calypso unit. The closed system is so secure that it constitutes a barrier against cross contamination (infection).
The unit is maintenance-free; care of the unit and its accessories is limited to inspection and cleaning. There are no user-
serviceable parts in the Calypso breastpump. With the exception of the mains adapter (g), there are no spare parts.
Visual inspection by the user before switch-on
• Is the mains adapter (g) undamaged?
• Is the accessory clean, complete and intact?
• Is the accessory correctly attached?
Ignoring these checks, or the cleaning instructions, may lead to risk of infection, electric shock or damage to the unit.
Cleaning / disinfection
• Calypso breastpump:
Important: Unplug the unit from the mains adapter before cleaning.
Cleaning at home: As needed, wipe with a damp cloth, commercial detergent may be used. Do not put the unit into the
dish-washer or into a washing-up bowl. It is not possible to clean the pump or the power unit. Attempting to do so may
cause the unit to malfunction or to become contaminated – requiring suitable disposal (see section 11: Transport / Storage /
Disposal).
Calypso is not waterproof. It complies with Standard IP21.
• Accessory Pumpset: Please read the separate Operating Instructions, Section: Cleaning.
9. Guarantee
The Guarantee time-limit for the Calypso, in personal use, is 400 hours (as long as the green LED display lights up). However,
there is at the least the stipulated minimum legal guarantee period from the date of purchase. The Guarantee is limited to
the original purchaser.
General terms and conditions
Ardo medical AG guarantees its products in respect of materials and manufacturing defects. The guarantee period starts
from the date of purchase. Defective materials will be replaced free-of-charge, during the life of the Guarantee, provided that
the Guarantee has not been voided by unauthorised use or access to the unit. To ensure Guarantee cover, and the flawless
functioning of the unit, the Operating Instructions must be followed, and only Ardo accessories used. The Guarantee is void if
the unit has been opened or tampered with.
NB
After 400 hours, the green LED display changes to orange. This means that the additional Guarantee has expired. The
Calypso can however still be used without any reduction in performance.
