Expressing Breast Milk
Connect one end of the microUSB ca
ble (9) supplied to the microUSB connec
tion (21) on the pump unit and the other end to
a properly installed power socket.
Use the power adapter plug (10) supplied.
Alternatively, you can use a USB port on
a computer.
Position the breast shield (2) onto your
breast so that the breast milk can flow into the
feeding bottle.
Your teat should be in the middle of the
breast shield (2).
Press the button (18). The breast pump
generates a vacuum between the breast
shield (2) and your breast.
As a result of the vacuum, your let-down re
flex is stimulated and breast milk is expressed.

longer for the breast milk to start flowing
or the milk quantity appears low when

10 minutes on each breast.
