the display B1will show indicator B3– "Stimulation" and the breast pump will start the stimulation mode.
The stimulation phase takes 2 minutes. The suction intensity in the stimulation phase is set to the lowest level
1. This is indicated by the corresponding number of segments on the scale B5. The display B1shows the
default time of 30 minutes. The remaining time counts down until the breast pump turns off automatically.
You may regulate the suction intensity range from 1 to 9 as required. The intensity setting will be shown on
the scale B5. In the stimulation mode an unchangeable speed is set that corresponds to 100 cycles per
minute.
4. Upon completion of the stimulation phase, the breast pump automatically switches to the expression
mode. In the event that milk starts to flow sooner, switch the breast pump to the expression mode using
button B0. The indicator B4– "Expression" will be shown on the display B1. The suction intensity in the
expression mode is preset to level 4 and can be changed in the range from 1 to 9 as required. The scale
B5will show the corresponding number of segments. The speed of expression changes automatically
depending on the suction intensity and is shown on the scale B7. The time remaining until automatic shut

Note:
The next time when the breast pump is turned on, the mode in which the breast pump was running prior to
being turned off will be renewed as well as the previously set suction intensity. If batteries were removed or
the breast pump was disconnected from the external power source before repeat use, the default settings
will be renewed as when the breast pump was started for the first time.
6. Take the breast out of the silicon pad A2always only after turning off the pump unit Aqj. Place the bottle
Aqs with the expressed milk in the bottle stand Aqd to prevent it from being tipped over. When using an
external power source, disconnect the pump unit Aqj from the mains power socket. Screw the bottle Aqs
out of the bottle connector A4and close it with the seal cap A0.
Note:
Do not fill the bottle Aqs with more than 120 ml of milk so as to prevent spilling it.
7. When you have finished expressing milk, clean out all parts that were used according to the instructions in
chapter Cleaning and sterilization. Clean the bottle Aqs with its seal cap A0later, after using up its contents.
Tips and advice for using the breast pump
■If you feel an unpleasant pressure, lower the suction intensity.
■You can express milk first from one breast and then continue expressing milk from the other breast. Prior to
taking the breast pump off the breast, it is necessary to turn off the pump unit Aqj and only then release the
breast from the silicon pad A2. Then you can continue expressing milk from the other breast.
■If you are not successful expressing any milk within the time interval of approx. 5 minutes, stop the breast
pump. First try relaxing for awhile and warm the breasts up in awarm shower. Then try again to express the
milk or postpone it to alater time when more milk has been created.
■Usually, 10 minutes should be sufficient to express the milk. This time is only indicative and may vary from
person to person.
Storing and heating up breast milk
■Only breast milk collected using aclean and sterilized breast pump is suitable for storage. Store the milk
in sterilized containers designed for storing breast milk or in special disposable breast milk storage bags.
■To prevent the milk from leaking or absorbing other odours from an area in which it is stored, thoroughly
close containers or bags before placing them in the refrigerator or freezer.
