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.
6 Depending on your own personal comfort, you may wish to use a higher suction mode that
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.

After use
Storing breast milk
Only store breast milk collected with a sterile pump.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge (not in the door) for up to 48 hours. Expressed milk should
be refrigerated immediately. If you store milk in the fridge to add to during the day, only add milk
that has been expressed into a sterilised bottle or breast milk container.
Breast milk can be stored in the freezer for up to three months as long as it is kept in either
sterilised bottles tted with a sterilised screw ring and sealing disc. Clearly label the bottle with the
date and time of expression and use older breast milk rst.
If you intend to feed your baby with the expressed breast milk within 48 hours, you can store the
breast milk in the fridge in an assembled Philips AVENT bottle:
1 Unscrew the bottle and remove it from the pump body.
2 Assemble a sterilised teat and screw ring onto the bottle according to the separate
instructions provided with the bottle. Seal the teat with the dome cap.
3 Alternatively, insert a sterilised sealing disc into a sterilised screw ring and screw this onto
the bottle.
