Expressing with ISIS iQ UNO

Initiate let-down:To encourage let-down,lightly press
the handle in a way that feels comfortable and similar
to your baby’s initial rapid suckling action.The petals
on the Let-down Massage Cushion will flex in and
out around the areola,creating a massaging effect,
similar to baby’s natural mouth and jaw movements
during breastfeeding.You can choose to automate
this let-down phase by pressing the control button
after two compressions (flashing GREEN light). Once
your milk begins to flow,press the control button to
return to manual control (solid GREEN light)
.
CAUTION:LET-DOWN CAN OCCUR IMMEDIATELY,EVEN AFTER
JUST A FEW STROKES AND SHOULD NOT TAKE LONGER THAN 5
MINUTES (REFER TO HINTSTO HELP YOU SUCCEED ON PAGE 11).
Milk expression:To create a natural and effective breast
pumping rhythm that can be maintained for the rest
of your pumping session,compress the handle slowly
and more fully (to increase the intensity of the suction),
hold for 2-3 seconds and then slowly release.Once
you are happy with the level of suction and rhythm,
after two compressions,press the control button and
ISIS iQ will continue your personal pumping rhythm
(flashing GREEN light).
Note:You do not need to compress the handle fully,only
until it feels comfortable.The further you compress the
handle,the more suction the pump will provide.If the
pressure is uncomfortable,stop and change your
pumping rhythm.
HELPFUL TIP!
Let-down is your body’s physiological response to
the suckling action of your
baby on the breast.This stimulates
the breast to produce milk and send it
towards the nipple where it is available for baby.
Milk expression occurs after let-down is achieved and milk begins to flow.
It is the phase that is induced by the baby’s deeper more comfortable
suckling rhythm.
