7.2 Operating the breast pump
a) Preparation for two-sided pumping:
1. Before using the breast pump, wash your hands and breasts
thoroughly.
2. The breast pump and the 2 small bottles must be connected
to the silicone tube for two-sided pumping.
3. Sit with your upper body lent forwards slightly. You can support
your back better by using a pillow.
4. Place the breast shields with silicone cushion gently on the
breast. Make sure that the nipples are completely enclosed and
there are no air pockets. To ensure proper function, the breast
shields must be drawn firmly onto the breasts.
5. To switch on the breast pump, press the button. After
switching on the breast pump for the first time, the software
will be in dual pump mode “2”. During these two minutes, your
breast nipples will be stimulated in order to prepare them for
pumping the breast milk. This mode should always be selected
for two-sided pumping. The breast pump will begin automat-
ically in stimulation mode (
) and a two-minute timer will
appear on the display. During these two minutes, your breast
nipple will be stimulated in order to prepare it for pumping the
breast milk. Use the / buttons to set the desired stimu-
lation intensity.

that is comfortable for you. Stop using the pump once there is
180 ml of milk in the bottles.
