We’ve taken everything women loved about our classic ISIS™ manual
breast pump – the soft petal massager and fingertip sensitive control that
make it feel so gentle, natural and comfortable – and we’ve given it an iQ
– an electronic memory.
ISIS iQlearns from you. Begin by pumping
manually, then touch the button and let ISIS iQ
quietly continue your exact pumping rhythm.
If at any time you want to vary the rhythm,
touch the button again to revert to manual.
ISIS iQis totally responsive to your needs.
Relax and enjoy the experience because you’re always
in complete control. And when you’re relaxed and
comfortable, you express more milk, faster.

a
Sterilise in a steam steriliser (electronic,
electric or microwave), or by boiling in
water for 10 minutes.
The AVENT Electronic, Electric and
Microwave Steam Sterilisers are specially
designed to hold the ISIS™ breast pump
parts and will remain sterile inside the
steriliser for 3 hours, provided the lid is
not removed.
Keeping your
pump sterile and
compact for travel
After sterilising all parts, insert the
white valve (c) and diaphragm with
stem (b) into the pump body (d) and
clip the funnel cover (h) over the funnel
and Let-down Massage Cushion™ (g).
Now screw the travel cover (n) onto the
pump body (d) in place of the milk container.

NEVER WASH
OR STERILISE…
the control handle (a), battery pack (i)
or wall plug lead (j).
These components DO NOT come into contact
with your breast milk.
You can wipe the control handle clean, using
a soft cloth.
Cleaning the pump
body and breast milk
storage components
Before you use your breast pump for the
first time and every time before use, you
must disassemble, wash and sterilise all
the breast pump parts that come into
contact with your breast milk.
(See opposite).
You can use the dishwasher (top rack only)
or hand wash in warm, soapy water and
then rinse thoroughly.
Do not use antibacterial cleaners
or detergents as they may cause
the plastic to crack.

Place the silicone diaphragm
with stem (b) into the pump
body (d), making sure it fits
securely around the edge, to
create a seal. (This is easier if
the diaphragm is wet).
Twist the milk container (e)
onto the pump body (d) until
securely in place.

How to assemble your ISIS iQUNO™
With clean hands, click the white
valve (c) into the pump body (d)
from the bottom making sure
that the pointed side of the valve
faces downwards.
For battery use, open the top of
the battery pack (i) and insert
4 x AA batteries*. Connect the
power lead to the control handle (a).
Firmly push the control handle
(a) onto the pump body (d) so
that it sits securely on top of
the silicone diaphragm (b).

For mains use connect the wall
plug lead (j) to the control
handle (a) and plug into an
electrical wall socket.
Carefully insert the Let-down
Massage Cushion™ (g) into the
pump body (d), making sure
it completely covers the edge
of the funnel. (This is easier if
the Let-down Massage Cushion
is wet).

Before you use your ISIS iQUNO, make sure you have washed, sterilised
and carefully assembled your pump exactly as described on pages 5-8.
Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean.
Relax in a comfortable chair, leaning slightly forward (use cushions
to support your back). Make sure you have a glass of water nearby as
expressing can be thirsty work. A photograph of your baby will help too.
3
To begin pumping
Switch on at the wall socket if using mains
power. To turn the pump on, press and
hold the control button for 2 seconds.
The light on the top of the control handle
will flash ORANGE and then turn to a
solid GREEN to indicate that the pump
is ready to use. If at any time the light
is flashing red, stop and consult the
‘Troubleshooting guide’ on pages 19-20.
Begin by gently squeezing the handle
5 or 6 times quite quickly, simulating
the rapid suckling you usually feel
when your baby is first put to the
breast. Your milk will soon begin to
flow and you can establish a slower,
comfortable pumping pattern.
Many mothers find that holding down
the handle for 2 to 3 seconds at a
time imitates the feeling of their
baby breastfeeding.
When you have established a
comfortable pumping rhythm with
at least 2 squeezes, simply press the
control button on the handle, and
the ISIS iQUNO™ will automatically
continue in the same way.
The light on the control handle will turn
from solid GREEN to a flashing GREEN.
Your pattern will now be stored in the
pump’s memory – even after the pump
has been switched off!
Press the assembled pump firmly against
your breast to create a seal.
Using the control handle you can find
your exact comfort level. As you press
down on the handle you will feel greater
suction against your breast. You don’t
need to squeeze the handle fully, only
as far as feels comfortable for you.

How to use your ISIS iQUNO™

11
To change your
pumping rhythm
If at any time you want to change your
pumping rhythm, press the control button
again and the pump will revert to manual
fingertip control. The light will turn back to
solid GREEN. You can now pump manually
until you are comfortable again. Then press
the control button again and ISIS iQwill
continue your chosen rhythm.
To stop pumping
If at any time the suction becomes uncomfortable or if you want to stop
pumping, press the control button and break the seal between the breast
and the pump body with your finger. To switch off the pump, press and hold
the control button for 2 seconds until the GREEN light turns off, then unplug
the wall plug lead from the wall socket. If you’re using the battery pack,
disconnect from the control handle. If you forget to turn the pump off,
it will switch itself off after 3 minutes to save battery power.
Battery Life
Batteries will last for approximately 6 hours. The light on the control handle
will display a continuous RED pulsing flash to warn you when it is time
to replace them. There will be enough power for approximately 1 more
pumping session, with no drop-off in performance, before the pump
switches itself off.
To collect your milk
After you have expressed your milk, unscrew
the pump body from the milk container (e).
If you’re using AVENT milk containers, insert
a sealing disc (o) into the screw ring (m)
and twist it onto the milk container. If you’re
using VIA™, unscrew the adaptor and screw
a lid onto the cup.
On average you will need to pump for
10 minutes to express 60-120mls/2-4ozs.
However, this is just a guide and varies
from woman to woman. If you find that you
regularly express more than 120mls/4ozs
per session, please use a 260ml/9oz AVENT
milk container.
Disassembly
Ensure the power is switched off at the wall
socket and disconnect the wall plug lead or
battery pack from the control handle. Pull the
control handle directly upwards away from
the diaphragm then unhook it from the stem
by moving it towards the funnel.

Using a breast pump takes practice. You may need to make several
attempts before you succeed, but because the ISIS iQUNO™ is so simple
and comfortable to use, you will soon get used to expressing milk.
1. Choose a quiet time when you’re not rushed and unlikely
to be disturbed.
2. Having your baby or a photograph of your baby nearby can help
encourage your milk to flow.
3. Warmth and relaxation can help so you might like to try expressing
after a warm bath or shower.
4. Placing a warm cloth on your breasts for a few minutes before
you start pumping can also encourage your milk flow and soothe
painful breasts.
5. Try expressing from one breast while your baby is feeding on the
other, or continue expressing just after a feed.
6. Repositioning the pump on your breast from time to time can
help stimulate your milk ducts.
7. Some women may prefer to use the pump without the Let-down
Massage Cushion™. However, it has been shown that, in most cases,
the massaging effect of the petals flexing in and out around the
areola stimulates the let-down reflex and allows you to express
more milk, faster.
8. To relieve engorgement, we recommend gentle and slow single
pumping to relieve the pressure.
Practice with your pump to find the best pumping techniques for you.
Don’t worry if your milk doesn’t flow immediately, relax and continue
pumping. BUT if after five minutes no result is achieved try again at
another time. If expressing becomes painful, stop and consult your
breastfeeding adviser.

How to use your ISIS™
manual breast pump
Wash your hands thoroughly and make
sure your breasts are clean. Relax in a
comfortable chair, leaning slightly forward
(use cushions to support your back).
Make sure you have a glass of water
nearby as expressing can be thirsty work.
Press the Let-down Massage
Cushion™ firmly against your
breast to create a perfect seal.
Gently squeeze the handle
5 or 6 times fairly quickly
to initiate let-down.
When you see your milk
beginning to flow, establish
a rhythm of pumping to meet
your own comfort level.

Storing your expressed
breast milk
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge or freezer
in either sterile AVENT Breastmilk Containers
(125ml/4oz or 260ml/9oz fitted with sealing
discs) or in pre-sterilised disposable VIA™ Cups.
Do not overfill the milk container and be sure to
keep it upright.
Expressed milk should be refrigerated
immediately.
Only milk collected with a sterile pump should
be stored to be fed to your baby.
Expressed breast milk can be stored in the
refrigerator for up to 48 hours (not in the door)
or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
If you are storing freshly expressed milk in the
fridge to add to during the day, only add milk
which has been expressed into a sterile container.
Milk can only be kept like this for a maximum of
48 hours from first expression, after which it must be used immediately or
frozen for future use.
Frozen breast milk can be defrosted overnight in the refrigerator,
heated gradually in warm water or heated on the lowest setting
of the AVENT Bottle and Babyfood Warmer.
Note:
• NEVER refreeze breast milk.
• DO NOT add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk.
Caution: Never immerse a frozen milk container or VIA Cup
in boiling water as this may cause it to crack/split.

• Check that all pump parts have been
assembled correctly and that the valve
is positioned correctly.
• Ensure that the silicone diaphragm and
Let-down Massage Cushion™ are fitted securely
to the pump body and a perfect seal is created.
• Make certain that the control handle is firmly
in place.
• Ensure the pump is correctly assembled and that
suction is being created.
• Relax and try again, as expression may improve
after practice.
• Refer to the ‘Hints to help you succeed’ section
on page 14.
• You may be squeezing too hard. You do not need
to use all the suction the pump can generate.
• Try squeezing the handle more gently and
remember the 2-3 second pumping rhythm.
• Consult your health professional/breastfeeding
adviser.
• Remove and re-fit the Let-down Massage Cushion
to ensure it is firmly attached and pushed far
enough down the centre of the funnel.
• Try leaning slightly forward.
