You can feed your baby with breast milk from Philips AVENT bottles and storage cups:
1 If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.
Note: In case of an emergency, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.
2 Heat the bottle or storage cup with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water
or in a bottle warmer.
3 Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle or remove the lid from the storage cup.
4 If you are using a storage cup, screw the adapter ring onto the cup.
5 Screw a sterilised screw ring with sterilised teat onto the bottle or onto the storage cup with
adapter ring.
Do’s
- Always check the temperature of the milk before you feed it to your baby.
- Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.
Don’ts
- Never heat milk in a microwave, as this can cause uneven heating, which can lead to hot spots in
the milk. It may also destroy nutrients in the milk.
- Never immerse a frozen storage cup in boiling water, as this may cause it to crack.
- Never ll a storage cup with boiling water. Let the water cool down for 20 minutes before you
pour it into the storage cup.
Cleaning and sterilising
Clean and sterilise all parts of the breast pump before rst use. Clean all parts after each
subsequent use and sterilise all parts before each subsequent use.
1 Disassemble the breast pump completely. Also remove the white valve.
Be careful when you remove the white valve and when you clean it. If it gets damaged, your
breast pump does not function properly. To remove the white valve, gently pull at the ribbed tab
on the side of the valve.
2 Clean all parts in hot water with some mild washing-up liquid and then rinse them
thoroughly. You can also clean the parts in the dishwasher (on the top rack only).
To clean the valve, rub it gently between your ngers in warm water with some washing-up
liquid. Do not insert objects into the valve, as this may cause damage.
3 Sterilise all parts in a Philips AVENT steam steriliser or by boiling them for 5 minutes.
Storage
Keep the breast pump out of direct sunlight as prolonged exposure may cause discolouration.
1 Store the breast pump and its accessories in a safe and dry place.
The Philips AVENT manual breast pump is compatible with Philips AVENT bottles in our range.
When you use bottles that feature our two-piece anti-colic system, always insert the ring in the top
of the bottle before you attach it to the breast pump. When you use other Philips AVENT bottles,
use the same type of teat that was supplied with that bottle. For details on how to assemble the
teat and general cleaning instructions, refer to the user manual that came with your bottle. These
details can also be found on our website, www.philips.com/support.
