This breast pump has been designed specifically with the needs of breastfeeding mothers in mind.
This breast pump: (1) fits perfectly on the breast, (2) gently stimulates, and (3) gives you complete control over the suction and speed.
This breast pump has two modes, “Stimulation mode” and “Expression mode.” You can easily switch between the two modes by adjusting the stem and handle position.

Stimulation mode

This mode gently stimulates the breast to enable smooth expressing. You can create gentle suction pressure by setting the handle in the first (top) notch in the stem.

Expression mode

Pump at the appropriate suction pressure and speed by adjusting your grip on the handle. You can create stronger suction pressure by setting the handle in the second (bottom) notch in the stem.

How to take care of the pump

Caution

Always disassemble the parts before washing and sterilizing.
• Wash and sterilize the pump before using it for the first time.
• Soak the pump in lukewarm water and wash them by using a detergent such as “Pigeon Liquid Cleanser” after use. Please make sure to rinse thoroughly after washing.
• Sterilize the parts after washing. • Be careful not to lose small parts when washing the pump parts.
• Use a soft sponge brush for washing.
• Do not handle silicone rubber parts roughly. Doing so will cause tears or scratches.
• Do not clean with a scourer, polishing powder, or hard brush. Doing so will scratch the surface.

Caring for the included nipple

• To protect the ventilation valve, a white powdered food additive has been applied. Before using for the first time, wash thoroughly.
• Use both hands to clean the ventilation valve, vent, and nipple hole by rubbing gently. If you scrub or pull on it too hard, the valve may split, and it causes leaks.
• The tip of the nipple is extremely delicate. Push the tip of the nipple with your finger when washing with a cleaning brush.

[Boiling sterilization]

• Place thoroughly washed parts in a large pot filled with water. Bring to a boil. Sterilization time is 5 minutes after the water comes to a boil.
• If there is not enough water, parts may stick to the side of the pot and become deformed.
• Do not boil excessively. Doing so can quickly damage the product.

[Steam sterilization]

• Use a sterilizer designed specifically for nursing bottles and nipples. Please read and follow the instructions that come with the product.

[Chemical sterilization]

• Use a disinfectant designed specifically for nursing bottles and nipples. Please read and follow the instructions that come with the disinfectant.
• The color of printing on the bottle may fade in case of chemical sterilization.

How to store expressed breast milk

Your breast milk is full of nutrition. To keep it fresh for future use, insert a sealing disk into the cap, screw the cap tightly onto the nursing bottle, and store the bottle in the refrigerator.
• Do not microwave breast milk as much of the nutritive value will be lost.
• Do not leave breast milk sitting at room temperature.
• Do not refreeze breast milk that has been thawed.
• Do not combine fresh expressed breast milk with stored one.
