Optimal battery life is achieved when:
•Batteries arenot fully drained on aregular basis
•Pump is allowed to charge when not in use
When not in use for alengthy period, recharge batteries for 12 hours every two months.
Pumping time (full battery) =approx. 60 minutes
Charging time (empty battery) =12hours
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 ensurepro-
per fit, be suretocenter the membrane
caps’ tube port directly over the crevice

Switch on the breastpump by pressing the On/Offbutton.
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).
Pumping
VI
Be comfortably seated and relax. Use afootrest, 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 moreefficiently
–meaning get moremilk in less time –when pumping at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum™in the Expression Phase.
Once finished pumping, switch offthe breastpump, unplug
it, and disassemble the pump kit items. Close the bottle and
storeitfor later use.
Use bottle stand to prevent tip over.
Center your breastshield over your nipple.
•Do not tilt or overfill bottles when pumping.
•Take care not to kink tubing while pumping.

Choosing the right size of Breastshield
Acorrectly tted breastshield avoids compression of any milk ducts during pumping to
ensureoptimal 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 agentle, 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 alarger (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,bypressing the let-down button.
Ramp-up Vacuum Transition from Stimulation
to Expression Phase
When switching from Stimulation to Expression Phase, the
Symphony Program Card2.0 increases the vacuum setting
by adding three bars to the last Stimulation setting in astair-
stepped fashion. The three additional bars and increased
vacuum setting occur gradually over a4-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 Card2.0, the let-down button can also be used to switch
back from Expression to Stimulation Phase (for moreinformation on this featuresee page
10 «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 Card2.0 remembers
the last Stimulation Phase vacuum setting prior to switching to Expression Phase and
returns to this setting in Stimulation Phase.

10 EN
The Symphony Program Card2.0 includes afeaturethat 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 returntothe Stimulation Phase. If you have not achieved amilk ejection after two
consecutive Stimulation Phases, take abreak, relax and try again in 15-30 minutes.
Engorgement
If, due to engorgement, you areexperiencing 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 returntothe
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 arenot as hardand 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 sorenipples, you areexperiencing discomfort while pumping in the Expression
Phase, careful use of the Stimulation Phase may help to provide some relief. Youcan
returntothe 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.
