OperationV
Electrical
Power the Symphony (or charge its battery if included) by connecting the socket in the
back of the pump and the power cord to a standard electrical outlet.
Battery optional (built-in rechargeable battery)
Charge Symphony pump batteries for 12 hours upon receipt.
Optimal battery life is achieved when:
• Batteries are not fully drained on a regular basis
• Pump is allowed to charge when not in use
When not in use for a lengthy period, recharge batteries for 12 hours every two months.
Pumping time (full battery) = approx. 60 minutes
Charging time (empty battery) = 12 hours
Pump may be used while charging.
Note
If the pump has been running for 30 minutes without any manipulations (e.g. adjustment
of the vacuum), the Symphony will automatically switch off.
9Push membrane tightly into place on
breastpump diaphragm. To ensure pro-
per fit, be sure to center the membrane
caps‘ tube port directly over the crevice
on the pump housing. Make sure that
the membrane clicks into place and is
flush with surrounding surface.
Assembly InstructionslV

9EN
Switch on the breastpump by pressing the On/Off button.
The pump will begin pumping in the Stimulation Phase.
Adjust the vacuum during pumping to your comfort level by
turning the one-knob control clockwise (increase) or counter-
clockwise (decrease).
Hospital only: For Preemie+ please refer to separate instruc-
tion for use.
PumpingVI
Becomfortablyseatedandrelax.Useafootrest,whenpumpingorwhenfeedingyour
baby.Elevatingyourfeetputsyouintopropersittingpositiontoavoidstressonthelower
backandperineum.
Once your milk starts to flow or you sense milk ejection, press
the let-down button to switch to the Expression Phase.
If you do not press the let-down button, the pump will auto-
matically switch to the Expression Phase after two minutes.
Set your Maximum Comfort Vacuum™ which is the
highest vacuum you can use and still feel comfortable (this
is different for every mother). To find your Maximum Comfort
Vacuum increase vacuum until pumping feels slightly un-
comfortable (not painful), then decrease slightly.
Research has shown that you will pump more efficiently
– meaning get more milk in less time – when pumping at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum™ in the Expression Phase.
Once finished pumping, switch off the breastpump, unplug
it, and disassemble the pump kit items. Close the bottle and
store it for later use.
Use bottle stand to prevent tip over.
Center your breastshield over your nipple.

Choosing the right size of Breastshield
A correctly tted breastshield avoids compression of any milk ducts during pumping to
ensure optimal breast emptying and maximum milk output.
Your breastshield is the right size if your answer to the following questions is «Yes»:
• Is your nipple moving freely in the tunnel?
• Is minimal or no areolar tissue being pulled into the tunnel of the breastshield?
• Do you see a gentle, rhythmical motion in the breast with each cycle of the pump?
• Do you feel the breast emptying all over?
• Is your nipple pain-free?
If your answer to any of the above questions is «No», try a larger (or smaller) breastshield.

Stimulation Phase starts with Minimum Vacuum
Setting
The initial vacuum setting is visually indicated with three
drops on the LCD Display. Stimulation Phase is limited to
two minutes.
Switch to Expression Phase
The pump will switch to Expression Phase by one of two ways:
1) automatically, after the two minute Stimulation Phase is
complete, or
2) manually, by pressing the let-down button.
Ramp-up Vacuum Transition from Stimulation
to Expression Phase
When switching from Stimulation to Expression Phase, the
Symphony Program Card 2.0 increases the vacuum setting
by adding three bars to the last Stimulation setting in a stair-
stepped fashion. The three additional bars and increased
vacuum setting occur gradually over a 4-second period.
The ramp-up transition eliminates potential discomfort of
an immediate vacuum setting increase.
Switching back and forth between Stimulation and Expression Phase by using
the Let-Down Button
With the Symphony Program Card 2.0, the let-down button can also be used to switch
back from Expression to Stimulation Phase (for more information on this feature see page
11 «Addressing Special Needs»). On the LCD Display the vacuum setting will be indicated
by drops in the Stimulation Phase and by bars in the Expression Phase.
Program Remembers Last Stimulation Vacuum Setting
When switching back to Stimulation Phase, the Symphony Program Card 2.0 remembers
the last Stimulation Phase vacuum setting prior to switching to Expression Phase and
returns to this setting in Stimulation Phase.

12 EN
The Symphony Program Card 2.0 includes a feature that allows mothers to switch back
to the Stimulation Phase by pressing the let-down button. Some mothers find this feature
beneficial in addressing the following special needs:
No milk ejection occurs in the first two minutes of the Stimulation Phase
If your milk ejection has not occurred in the first two minutes of the Stimulation Phase
and the pump automatically switches to the Expression Phase, press the let-down button
once to return to the Stimulation Phase. If you have not achieved a milk ejection after
two consecutive Stimulation Phases, take a break, relax and try again in 15-30 minutes.
Engorgement
If, due to engorgement, you are experiencing difficulties breastfeeding or expressing milk,
careful use of the Stimulation Phase may help to provide some relief. If your milk ejection
does not occur in the first two minutes of the Stimulation Phase and the pump auto-
matically switches to the Expression Phase, press the let-down button to return to the
Stimulation Phase. Repeat this process until your milk ejection occurs. After milk ejection
you may find it beneficial to remain in the Stimulation Phase until enough milk has been
expressed so that the nipple and areola area are not as hard and engorged. After initially
draining the breast to relieve the discomfort, follow up with breastfeeding or pumping in the
Expression Phase to adequately drain the breast. Although Medela strongly encourages
pumping in the Expression Phase after milk ejection at Maximum Comfort Vacuum for the
most effective removal of milk, it may be necessary to address temporary discomfort issues
by pumping in the Stimulation Phase.
If your engorgement condition persists or worsens, consult your physician or lactation
consultant.
Sore Nipples
If, due to sore nipples, you are experiencing discomfort while pumping in the Expression
Phase, careful use of the Stimulation Phase may help to provide some relief. You can
return to the Stimulation Phase at any time by pressing the let-down button. Although
Medela strongly encourages pumping in the Expression Phase after milk ejection at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum for the most effective removal of milk, it may be beneficial to
address temporary discomfort issues by pumping in the Stimulation Phase.
If your sore nipple condition persists or worsens, consult your physician or lactation
consultant.

Cleaning and HygieneX
Important • Use drinking water quality for any of the following described
cleaning procedures.
• Clean parts immediately after use to avoid dry up of milk
residues and to prevent from growth of bacteria.
• Disassemble all parts prior to cleaning. Especially be sure
to remove the yellow valve head from the breastshield and
separate the white valve membrane from the valve head.
Cleaning at
home Follow these cleaning instructions unless you are told otherwise by
your healthcare professional.
Prior to first use and once daily
• Disassemble, wash and rinse all parts of your pump kit that
come in contact with the breast and milk (a+b+c+d+e+i+k+l).
• Place parts in a saucepan of sufficient capacity.
• Fill with cold water until the parts are well covered. Optionally,
a tea spoon of citric acid may be added to avoid a build-up of
limescale.
• Heat it up and allow to boil for 5 minutes.
• Remove from stove and drain water off.
• Dry parts with a clean towel.
Alternatively, the disassembled parts can be sanitized in top rack
of dishwasher, with the Medela quick clean microwave bags or
with the b-well steam sterilizer.
Note:Foodcoloringsmaydiscolorcomponentswhichwillnot
affectperformance.
After each use
• Disassemble and handwash all parts of your pump kit that
come in contact with the breast and milk (a+b+c+d+e+i+k+l)
in warm, soapy water.
• Rinse in clear water.
• Dry parts with a clean towel.
Cleaning in
hospitals The following cleaning instructions are general recommendations and may individually be adjusted based on the hospital‘s specific
directives and cleaning practices.

14 EN
Tubing care Inspect the tubing after each pumping session for condensation
and/or milk.
If condensation appears in the tubing
Let the pump run after you have completed pumping with tubings
attached for 1–2 minutes or until dry.
If milk gets into the tubing
If milk accidentally gets into the tubing turn off the pump and unplug
from power source. Remove and clean the tubing according to the
instructions «Prior to first use and once daily». Shake water droplets
out and hang to air-dry. For faster drying, attach the tubing to pump
and run for 1–2 minutes or until dry.
Hints After cleaning, when parts are not in use, put in a clean zip lock
bag or store in a container with lid. Alternatively, the parts can be
wrapped in a clean paper or cloth towel.
Important
It is recommended to provide each mother an own personal pump
set and to clean, disinfect and sterilize (e.g. autoclave) all compo-
nents after each use or, latest each time they are handed over to
the next mother. Use by more than one mother without adequate
sterilization may pose a health risk (e.g. risk of cross-contamination)
and voids the warranty.
Cleaning
Disassemble and thoroughly wash all parts in warm, soapy water.
Rinse in clear water.
Disinfecting
Disinfect all parts by washing in a thermic washing machine
(at approx. 93° C).
Sterilizing
Prior sterilizing visually check parts if clean and intact. Sterilize all
parts by autoclaving at 134°C for 3 (or 18) minutes or at 125°C
for 15 – 20 minutes. Do not stack parts or apply external pressure
to avoid damages. Alternatively, the parts can be EO-sterilized
(Ethylene Oxide).
Hygiene • Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching
the breast and pump parts.
• Avoid touching the inside of bottles and lids.
• Clean the breast and surrounding area with a damp cloth.
• Do not use soap or alcohol which can dry the skin and cause
cracked nipples.
