6. Operating Instructions

The Crane Double Electric Breast Pump offers innovative 3D pumping technology with 18 stimulation and expression levels for personalized comfort and efficiency.

6.1 Getting Started

1. Position the breast shield centrally over your nipple, ensuring a comfortable seal against your breast.
2. Press the power button on the pump unit to turn it on. The pump will typically start in a stimulation mode.

6.2 Modes and Suction Levels

• Stimulation Mode: This mode uses a faster, lighter suction to mimic a baby's initial suckling, helping to initiate milk let-down.
• Expression Mode: Once milk let-down occurs, switch to expression mode. This mode uses a slower, deeper suction to efficiently express milk.
• Use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust the suction intensity to your comfort level. There are 18 levels available.

6.3 Dual Expression

This pump supports dual expression, allowing you to pump from both breasts simultaneously. You can independently control each pump's settings or use it as a single pump if preferred.

A typical pumping session lasts 15-20 minutes per breast. Adjust duration based on your milk flow and comfort. The pump features a timer on its display.

7. Cleaning and Maintenance

Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for hygiene and the longevity of your breast pump. This pump features a closed system to prevent milk backflow into the tubing and motor.

7.1 After Each Use

1. Disconnect the tubing from the breast shields and pump unit.
2. Disassemble all parts that come into contact with breast milk (breast shields, silicone cushions, bottles).
