1.  Tilting of the flange may lead to the leakage of breastmilk. Please sit up straight while 

pumping to ensure the flange does not tilt.

2. It is important to find the maximum vacuum level that is comfortable for you, as 

pumping at an uncomfortably high vacuum level may cause pain and hinder your 

milk flow.

3. To determine your own maximum vacuum level, use the vacuum level and cycle 

speed controller buttons on the breast pump to increase the intensity until pumping 

feels slightly uncomfortable (not painful), then decrease the intensity slightly.

4. On average, a typical expressing session goes for 10-15 minutes, but this is just a guide 

and may vary for each individual.

5. Upon completion of pumping, do not just pull away the flange in its sealed state, but 

instead turn off the power first and remove the flange slowly by breaking the seal 

between your breast and the flange with your finger.

1.  Disassemble and wash all parts that come in contact with breastmilk immediately 

after use according to the instructions in the user manual using bottle washing 

detergent and appropriately shaped bottle brush and rinse under running water.

2. The general practice is to sterilize the washed parts in boiling water for 5 minutes.
3. After washing and sterilizing, ensure all parts are completely dry and store in a 

container or clean space.

4. Replace any worn out or scratched consumable parts.

Storage and care after use

Safety precautions

1.  Persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience 

and knowledge, should not use the product unless they have been given supervision 

or instruction by a person responsible for their safety.

2. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the product.
3. Always inspect the product components for signs of damage before each use.
4. Use only genuine original Spectra accessories and parts.
5. Wash (do not use antibacterial or abrasive cleaners/detergents) and sterilize all 

product parts before each use.

6. Avoid exposure to high heat and direct sunlight.
7. Never use while pregnant, as pumping can induce labor.
8. This product is a personal care item that should be used by a single user. Use of the 

product under second-hand or rental conditions carries the risk of 

cross-contamination between multiple users and requires caution.

9. Some discomfort may be felt when first using a breast pump, however, if you should 

continue to feel pain, or if tearing or bleeding occurs around your nipples, you should 

immediately seek medical advice.

How to use

  Should milk backflow during pumping, stop the pump operation immediately and remove any milk 

first, then check all consumable parts for damage / connection condition. If you suspect that the 

milk has backflowed into the main pump unit, stop using the pump immediately and asses the unit 

before using again.
