WARNING
To avoid health risks and reduce the risk of severe injury:
• The Hands-free Collection Cups are a single-user product. Use by more than
one person may present a health risk and voids the warranty.
• Wash all parts that come into contact with your breast and breast milk after
every use.
• The tubing poses a risk of strangulation when played with and small parts may
be swallowed by toddlers. Close supervision is necessary when the Hands-free
Collection Cups are used in the vicinity of children.
CAUTION
To avoid fire or burns:
• The Hands-free Collection Cups and accessories are not heat-resistant. Keep
away from heated surfaces or open flames.
• Do not use near flammable materials.
To avoid health risks and reduce the risk of injury:
• Before each use visually inspect the individual components for cracks, chips,
tears, discoloration or deterioration. In the event that damage to the device is
observed, please discontinue use until the parts have been replaced.
• This product cannot be serviced or repaired. Do not repair yourself. Do not modify
the device.
• Never use a damaged device. Replace defective or worn parts.
• Use the Hands-free Collection Cups only for their intended use as described in
these Instructions for Use.
• If tubing becomes moldy, discontinue use and replace tubing.
• Do not microwave or boil breast milk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to a
baby’s mouth from hot spots that develop in the milk during microwaving.
Microwaving or boiling can also change the composition of breast milk.
