WARNING: To avoid damage, electric shock, fire or injury
• The Carum is not intended for use outdoors.
• Never use the Carum if it is not functioning correctly, has been dropped, or is faulty.
• When using an electrical device, pay particular attention to children or people of impaired intelligence
who are nearby; electrical devices are not toys.
• You must always connect the power cord to the Carum first and then plug it into the power socket.
• Never leave the Carum unattended when it is connected to mains power supply.
• Disconnect the Carum from the mains power supply after use.
• The device is only disconnected when the power plug is removed from the power socket.
• Position the Carum so that it can be easily disconnected from the mains power supply.
• Keep the Carum as well as the power cord and all accessory parts away from hot surfaces.
• Only use the Carum for the purposes listed in the section "Intended use".
• Only use original Ardo pumpsets and original Ardo parts.
• Do not insert any objects into openings or tubes on the Carum and do not allow any objects to fall
into openings or tubes.
• Do not use the Carum in an environment in which oxygen is administered or sprays are used.
• The Carum must not be modified without the permission of the manufacturer.
WARNING: To avoid damaging your health or injuries
• Check the Carum and the associated parts before every use.
• Never use the Carum when you are sleeping or feeling tired.
• If expressing milk is uncomfortable or painful, stop pumping and ask for advice from the responsible
qualified personnel.
• Do not use the Carum if you are pregnant because expressing milk can trigger contractions.
• Follow the instructions in the relevant section "Cleaning / Inspection / Maintenance" for cleaning.
Car adapter
• The Carum and the Carum Battery are not intended for use outdoors even with the car adapter.
• Only use the original electrically protected car battery cable supplied by Ardo.

4. Product Description
• The Carum electric breastpump is intended for use in hospitals and for hire.
• The Carum can be used for single pumping and double pumping (expressing milk from both breasts
at the same time).
• The cycles and the vacuum can be adjusted as required and independently of each other.
• The color screen provides visual orientation and the integrated stopwatch indicates the duration of
pumping.
• To mimic the natural suckling behavior of the baby, milk can be expressed in two phases using the
Carum: the stimulation mode and the actual expression mode. The stimulation mode starts the milk
flow and the subsequent expression mode enables efficient pumping of the milk.
• The Carum starts with the stimulation mode and changes independently to the expression mode after
two minutes. If required, you can switch to the expression mode early by pressing the mode button
during this two minute period.
• To stimulate the milk flow again while expressing, you can easily change back to the stimulation mode
at any time by pressing the mode button.
• The "Sensitive Programme" can be used if your nipples are sore to gently express milk with the
minimum starting vacuum and minimum cycle.
• Ardo pumpsets create a 100% hygienic barrier between the breast milk and the breastpump.
This closed system ensures that breast milk cannot end up in the tube of the pumpset or in the
breastpump itself.
• The Carum Battery contains a rechargeable battery unit.
• The Carum and the Carum Battery can be operated with mains power or with an optional car cable in
the car.
Carum Battery – the Carum with integrated rechargeable battery unit
The Carum Battery enables milk to be expressed anywhere and allows you to express milk beside the crib
of an ill or newborn baby. Being close to your baby helps with the let-down reflex.
• The running time with a fully charged battery unit is about four hours (at max. vacuum and max.
cycle). Recharging a flat battery unit takes about two hours.
• If the running time with a fully charged battery unit drops to less than one hour, the battery unit
needs to be replaced at the closest service point or the manufacturer to restore optimal operation.
• If the device is connected to the mains power, the battery unit is recharged while milk is being
expressed. The recharging time is prolonged in this case.
• If the Carum is connected to the electrical system of a vehicle via the car cable, the battery unit is not
recharged while milk is being expressed. After switching the device off, the battery unit is charged via
the electrical system of the car.

5.3.2. Stimulation mode – Orange background
When it is switched on, the Carum starts automatically in the stimulation
mode (orange background) with a rapid cycle and a slight vacuum. This
mode stimulates the let-down reflex. The automatic setting imitates the
natural behavior of the baby. At the start of breastfeeding, babies suckle
with rapid sucking movements and low suction strength which triggers
the flow of breast milk.
The stimulation mode lasts for two minutes and then switches
automatically to the expression mode.
The vacuum and the cycles can be increased or reduced by pressing the
buttons repeatedly or holding them down. The selected settings are
shown using bars. Adjust the vacuum and / or cycle so that you feel
comfortable.
