a)
Breast pump functioning
The FISIO breast pump should be plugged into the power supply.
• Check that the values on the breast pump (volts and Hz) corresponds to the values of your distribution
network.
• Connect the breast pump to the power supply.

• Only use the accessories provided in the kit or those manufactured by DTF MEDICAL.
• Before use, check that the KIT EXPRESSION components are free from defect, damage or sign of wear. If this
is the case, replace them.

➊
Wash your hands with hot and soapy water before handling the breast pump parts.
➋
Screw the KOLOR breast shield onto the collection container.
➌

WARNING:
Correctly close the interface bottle cap when the breast pump is used on simple pumping.
c)
Using the breast pump
➊
Place the KOLOR breast shield correctly over your breast ensuring the milk can flow
freely into the collection container
➋
Ensure your nipple is centred inside the breast shield. The flexible part of the breast
shield must also be properly positioned on your breast to ensure complete sealing.
➌
The regulation button allows adjusting the cycle and the suction power. To stimulate the
lactation, set the button on "stimulation", minimum position, (rapid cycle, low suction).
➍
Switch on the breast pump (position “I”)
It is necessary to start with this stimulation phase in order to stimulate the milk arrival and
to activate the milk ejection reflex. This phase should last about 2 minutes.
❺
After the ejection reflex, set the button progressively on the "expression" position
(slower cycle and higher suction level) to obtain a good expression according to your own
level of comfort. Milk expression is optimal at the level of maximum depression and which
should not be painful
➏
Check the proper flow of milk inside the collection container.
❼
After expressing the milk, switch off the breast pump (position “O”).
