5 Cleaning and Sterilising
Warning!
Hygiene is the top priority
when handling breast milk and all
parts which come into contact with
it.
You should therefore only use
a pump that is clean and
sterilised.
Wash your hands thoroughly
before using the breast pump.
The following parts come into contact with
your breast milk and must be
immediately
cleaned and sterilised
after every use
(see “5.1 Cleaning (Figure A in reverse
order)” on page 28 and “5.2 Sterilising” on
page 28):

Breast shield
10
Silicone cushion
11
Lip valve
12
Breast milk container
15
Feeding teat
16
Screw ring
17
Protective cap
18
Sealing disc
The following parts
must never be cleaned
and sterilised with water
:

Pump unit
13
Mains adapter
14
USB cable
5.1 Cleaning
(Figure
A
in reverse order)
Warning!
To avoid the risk of elec-
tric shock:
Unplug mains adapter
13
from the
wall socket before cleaning.
Caution!
To avoid damage, carefully clean
the lip valve
11
. We recommend just rinsing
off the lip valve and boiling it to sterilise.
Cleaning implements may lead to damage.
1. Dismantle the device as shown in figure
B
,
proceeding in reverse from 7 to 1.
Warning! Never
submerge the
pump unit
3
, the mains adapter
13
,
or the USB cable
14
in water, as
this will damage the electrical
contacts.
2. Clean the following parts with warm
water and a little washing-up liquid (or
NUK Rinsing Agent).
Then rinse the parts in running water:

Breast shield
10
Silicone cushion
11
Lip valve
12
Breast milk container
15
Feeding teat
16
Screw ring
17
Protective cap
18
Sealing disc
Warning!
Milk residues may
damage the product and result
in microbial growth.
Caution!
The parts should not be cleaned
in a dishwasher – dishwasher detergents
can cause product damage.
Note:
When rinsing with dishes (for
example),
certain
foodstuffs
may
discolour the material (e.g. carrot juice) or
affect its odour (e.g. fennel tea). This has
no effect on the fitness for use or safety
of the bottle.
3. Next,
sterilise
all
parts
(see
“5.2 Sterilising“ on page 28).
4. Wipe the pump unit
3
with a damp cloth.
5.2 Sterilising
Before sterilising, clean as described in the
section entitled “5.1 Cleaning)”.
Warning!
Risk of scalding during
sterilisation.
Caution!
• Dismantle each part into its individual
components for boiling or steam-sterilizing
(temperature above 80 °C) and leave open,
otherwise deformation can result.
• The pump unit
3
and the mains adapter
13
must never be sterilised in this way, as this
can damage the electrical contacts and
cause deformation.
