[. . . ] The AVENT Electronic, Electric and Microwave Steam Sterilisers are specially designed to hold the ISISTM breast pump parts and will remain sterile inside the steriliser for 3 hours, provided the lid is not removed. Cleaning the pump body and breast milk storage components Before you use your breast pump for the first time and every time before use, you must disassemble, wash and sterilise all the breast pump parts that come into contact with your breast milk. You can use the dishwasher (top rack only) or hand wash in warm, soapy water and then rinse thoroughly. Do not use antibacterial cleaners or detergents as they may cause the plastic to crack. b c k Keeping your pump sterile and compact for travel After sterilising all parts, insert the white valve (c) and diaphragm with stem (b) into the pump body (d) and clip the funnel cover (h) over the funnel and Let-down Massage CushionTM (g).

Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean. Relax in a comfortable chair, leaning slightly forward (use cushions to support your back). Make sure you have a glass of water nearby as expressing can be thirsty work. A photograph of your baby will help too. Begin by gently squeezing the handle 5 or 6 times quite quickly, simulating the rapid suckling you usually feel when your baby is first put to the breast. Your milk will soon begin to flow and you can establish a slower, comfortable pumping pattern. Many mothers find that holding down the handle for 2 to 3 seconds at a time imitates the feeling of their baby breastfeeding. To begin pumping Switch on at the wall socket if using mains power. To turn the pump on, press and hold the control button for 2 seconds. The light on the top of the control handle will flash ORANGE and then turn to a solid GREEN to indicate that the pump is ready to use. If at any time the light is flashing red, stop and consult the `Troubleshooting guide' on pages 19-20. 3 When you have established a comfortable pumping rhythm with at least 2 squeezes, simply press the control button on the handle, and the ISIS iQ UNOTM will automatically continue in the same way. 1 Press the assembled pump firmly against your breast to create a seal. Using the control handle you can find your exact comfort level. As you press down on the handle you will feel greater suction against your breast. You don't need to squeeze the handle fully, only as far as feels comfortable for you. The light on the control handle will turn from solid GREEN to a flashing GREEN. Your pattern will now be stored in the pump's memory ­ even after the pump has been switched off! 4 2 9 10 To change your pumping rhythm If at any time you want to change your pumping rhythm, press the control button again and the pump will revert to manual fingertip control. The light will turn back to solid GREEN. [. . . ] · Ensure that the silicone diaphragm and Let-down Massage CushionTM are fitted securely to the pump body and a perfect seal is created. · Make certain that the control handle is firmly in place. · Ensure the pump is correctly assembled and that suction is being created. · Relax and try again, as expression may improve after practice.
