Controls and Features
The pump has two control knobs. Rotating the knobs adjusts the
settings. When a knob is adjusted, the time display automatically
changes to show the setting value, then switches back to time
shortly after the adjustment has stopped. The knobs increase/
decrease a displayed value. If you continue to rotate the knobs the
values will continue to change until the value reaches its limit. When
the setting reaches its limit, the setting will blink if you continue to
turn the knob, to let you know you have reached the limit. For knob
locations, see the illustration
Cycle speed/power adjustment knob
Pressing the
cycle speed/ Power knob
starts and stops the pump
motor. Rotating the
cycle speed/power knob
controls the suction
rhythm (cycle). It does this by changing the speed of the pump motor
to pump faster or slower. Rotating the knob
to the right increases
the speed and rotating the knob to the left decreases the speed. An
example of the suction rhythm (cycle) is when the soft silicone breast
cup collapses around the areola (dark area behind your nipple) and
releases. This can be related to how many times your baby sucks per
minute.
The slowest suction rhythm (cycle) is with a cycle speed of 1 (one).
This provides the fewest compressions per minute. A cycle speed of
30 (thirty) provides the greatest number of compressions per minute
and is the most comfortable setting. The suction rhythm (cycle) also
determines how long the suction strength (vacuum) is applied to
your breast. For example, a slow suction rhythm (cycle) would apply
suction strength (vacuum) for a slightly longer period of time. On
the other hand, a faster suction rhythm (cycle) would apply suction
strength (vacuum) for a shorter period of time (more comfortable).
Adjust the cycle speed only after you have used the pump 2-3 times
