5. Operating Instructions
To begin expressing milk, follow these steps:
- Find a comfortable position. Some mothers find it helpful to warm their breasts with a warm towel and gently massage them to stimulate milk flow before pumping.
- Center your nipple within the breast shield and ensure the shield forms a firm seal against your breast to prevent air leakage.
- Press the power button on the LED touch screen to turn on the pump.
- The pump features three modes: Massage, Suction, and Bionic. Use the mode selection button on the touch screen to switch between modes.
- Adjust the suction intensity using the '+' and '-' buttons. There are 10 suction levels available. Start with a lower suction level and gradually increase it to a comfortable setting that allows for efficient milk expression.
- The LCD display will show the current mode, suction level, and pumping duration.
- When finished, press the power button to turn off the pump and carefully remove the breast shields from your breasts.

6. Cleaning and Maintenance
Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for hygiene and the longevity of your breast pump:
- Disassembly: After each use, disassemble all parts that came into contact with breast milk.
- Cleaning: Wash all disassembled parts (except the main pump body and tubing) in warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Sterilization: Sterilize the cleaned parts using a sterilizer or by boiling them in water for 5-10 minutes. Ensure parts do not touch the bottom or sides of the pot to prevent damage.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely on a clean drying rack before reassembling or storing.
- Main Pump Unit: Wipe the main pump unit with a clean, damp cloth. Do not immerse it in water.
- Tubing: The tubing typically does not need cleaning unless milk or condensation enters it. If cleaning is necessary, wash with warm soapy water, rinse, and ensure it is completely dry before reattaching.
- Dishwasher Safety: All removable parts, except the electrical components, are dishwasher safe (top rack recommended).
