Step 3: Disinfecting
Supplies needed:
- A household pot
- Drinking-quality water
Caution: During disinfection with boiling water, prevent the bottle or other parts from
touching the side of the pot. This can cause irreversible product deformation or damage
that Philips cannot be held liable for.
5 min.
1. Fill a household pot
with enough water to
cover all parts and
place all parts in the
pot. Let the water boil
for 5
minutes. Make
sure the parts do not
touch the side of the
pot.
2. Allow the water to
cool down.
3. Gently remove the
parts from the water.
Place the parts on a
clean surface/tea towel
or drying rack to air-dry.
4. Store the dry items
safely in a clean,
protected area until
needed. Ensure the
clean parts have air-
dried completely before
storing them to help
prevent germs and
mold from growing.
Using the breast pump
Cushion size
The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Plus has a soft, active cushion. There is only one
cushion size. It gently stimulates your nipple to trigger milk flow. The cushion is made of flexible
silicone, fitting nipple sizes up to 30
mm/1.18
in.
Assembling the breast pump
Make sure you have cleaned and disinfected the parts of the breast pump that come into contact with
milk.
Warning: Be careful, when you have disinfected the breast pump parts by boiling
them, they can be very hot. To prevent burns, only start assembling the breast pump
when disinfected parts have cooled down.
Warning: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before you touch breast
pump parts and breasts to prevent contamination. Avoid touching the inside of
containers or lids.
Check the breast pump kit parts for wear or damage before use and replace them if necessary.
