Setup

Follow these steps to set up your Bellababy Electric Breast Pump:

1. Clean and Sanitize: Before first use, disassemble all parts that come into contact with breast milk (flanges, connectors, bottles, valves, diaphragms). Wash them thoroughly with warm soapy water, rinse, and then sterilize according to manufacturer's instructions (e.g., boiling for 5 minutes or using a sterilizer). Allow all parts to air dry completely.
2. Assemble the Flange and Bottle:
   • Insert the silicone diaphragm into the breast shield connector.
   • Attach the valve to the bottom of the breast shield connector.
   • Screw the collection bottle onto the breast shield connector.
   • Select the appropriate flange size (21mm, 24mm, or 27mm) for your comfort and milk flow.

3. Connect Tubing: Connect one end of the silicone tubing to the breast shield connector and the other end to the main pump unit's air inlet. For double pumping, use both tubes and connectors. For single pumping, cap the unused air inlet on the main unit.
4. Charge the Pump: Before first use, fully charge the main pump unit using the provided USB charging cable. The battery indicator on the LED display will show charging status.
5. Optional: Pumping to Storage Bags: If you wish to pump directly into milk storage bags, attach the milk storage bag adapter to the breast shield connector instead of the bottle, and then secure a milk storage bag to the adapter.

1. Power On/Off: Press the Power Button (circular icon) on the touch screen to turn the pump on or off. The LED display will illuminate.
2. Mode Selection: The pump has 4 modes. Press the respective mode icon on the touch screen to switch between them:
   • Massage Mode: (Droplet icon) Simulates a baby's gentle suckling to stimulate milk let-down. Recommended to start with this mode for 2-3 minutes.
   • Normal Suck Mode: (Wave icon) Standard expression mode for efficient milk collection.
   • Continuous Suck Mode: (Multiple waves icon) Provides a continuous suction for faster milk flow.
   • Frequency Conversion Mode: (Heartbeat icon) Alternates between different suction patterns to mimic a baby's natural feeding rhythm.
3. Adjust Suction Level: Each mode has 9 adjustable suction levels. Use the '+' and '-' buttons (not explicitly shown in image but implied by "Level display") to increase or decrease the suction intensity. Start with a lower level and gradually increase to a comfortable yet effective setting.
4. Pumping Session: Position the breast shield centrally over your nipple, ensuring a good seal. Begin pumping. The display shows the current level, time elapsed, and battery status. The pump will automatically shut off after 30 minutes of continuous use.
5. Single/Double Pumping: The pump can be used for single or double pumping. If using for single pumping, ensure the unused air inlet on the main unit is capped.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for hygiene and the longevity of your breast pump.

1. After Each Use:
   • Disconnect all parts that come into contact with breast milk (flanges, connectors, bottles, valves, diaphragms).
   • Wash these parts immediately in warm soapy water. Use a dedicated brush for cleaning pump parts.
   • Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
   • Allow parts to air dry completely on a clean drying rack. Do not use a cloth towel as it may leave lint.
2. Sterilization: Sterilize all milk-contacting parts at least once a day, or as recommended by your healthcare provider. Methods include:
   • Boiling: Place parts in a pot of boiling water for 5 minutes.
   • Steam Sterilizer: Use a microwave or electric steam sterilizer.
   • Dishwasher: Some parts may be top-rack dishwasher safe (check product manual for specifics).
3. Main Pump Unit: Wipe the main pump unit with a clean, damp cloth. Do not immerse it in water.
4. Tubing: The tubing does not typically need cleaning unless milk or condensation enters it. If this occurs, wash with warm soapy water, rinse, and hang to air dry completely before reattaching.
5. Storage: Store all clean and dry pump parts in a clean, dry place when not in use.
