7.3 Using the manual pump
1. Remove the cap with the connection to the breast pump and at-
tach the manual pump device including the silicone membrane by
pressing the silicone membrane firmly onto the pump attachment
until it clicks into place.
2. Then place the breast shield with silicone cushion gently on the
breast. Make sure that the nipple is completely enclosed and there
are no air pockets. To ensure proper function, the breast shield
must be drawn firmly onto the breast. Use the manual pump as
shown in the image.
3. You can vary the pump intensity by selecting between the MIN/
MAX markings that can be seen.
7.4 Storing the breast milk
Expressed milk can be stored in the fridge or freezer for a certain period of time.
• When storing breast milk, ensure that the breast pump and the bottles are disinfected before usage. Only
store breast milk in disinfected containers.
• Store breast milk in the fridge or freezer immediately after expressing. Do not leave breast milk out at
room temperature.
• If storing breast milk in the freezer, it is recommended that you mark the bottle with the date of expressing.

7.5 Feeding with the breast milk
Note
You can use the supplied bottle with the silicone teat when feeding with the breast milk. Alternatively,
you can also express the breast milk with an NUK or Avent bottle before feeding (corresponding NUK /
Avent adapter is included in delivery).
• Prior to feeding, ensure the bottle has been disinfected before filling it with the breast milk that has been stored.
• To defrost breast milk, store it overnight in the fridge, so as to retain the nutrients. Once the breast milk
is defrosted, it must be used within 24 hours. Breast milk should only be defrosted in warm water in es-
pecially urgent cases.
