Operating the breast pump
1 Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean.

time. However, you can also use the appliance to express from one breast in just the same way.

button (Fig. 10).
, This button lights up instead of the stimulation button.
Note: Do not worry if your milk does not ow immediately. Relax and continue pumping. The rst few
times you use the breast pump, you may need to use a higher suction mode to get your milk owing.

provides deeper suction. You can return to a lower suction mode, or switch off the breast
pump whenever you like by pressing the appropriate button (Fig. 11).
Note: You do not need to use all suction modes, only use the modes that are comfortable for you.
Always switch off the breast pump before you remove the pump body from your breast.
