User manual for mother

Introduction

Thank you for choosing to rent this Philips Avent breast pump. The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Plus is inspired by babies and their natural suction movement. The soft silicone cushion stimulates the nipple with gentle massaging movements, helping you to express milk comfortably and effectively. The combination of suction and nipple stimulation triggers fast milk flow. The no-lean-forward design enables you to sit in a relaxed, upright position while expressing.

Healthcare professionals and the World Health Organization recommend to exclusively feed children with breast milk during the first six months of life and to continue giving them breast milk for two years next to offering additional nutritious foods. This is because your breast milk is specially adapted to your baby's needs and helps to protect your baby against infection and allergies. To breastfeed longer, you can express and store your milk so that your baby can still enjoy the benefits of it, even if you cannot be there to provide it yourself. As the pump is compact, quiet and discrete to use, you can take it with you anywhere, allowing you to express milk at your own convenience and to maintain your milk supply.

If breastfeeding goes well, it is advisable (unless recommended otherwise by your healthcare professional) to wait until your milk supply and breastfeeding schedule are established (normally at least 2 to 4 weeks after giving birth) before you start expressing.

Tip: For optimal expression, choose the highest setting that still feels comfortable. This setting may differ across different sessions.
Tip: You can use the double breast pump as a single breast pump by connecting only the tube of one pump kit to the motor unit.

Using the breast pump when you have symptoms of engorgement

Breast engorgement means your breasts are overfilled with milk. This is a painful and unpleasant condition. Frequent extraction of milk and completely emptying the breasts of milk can reduce engorgement. When you have symptoms of engorgement, make sure you use a lower vacuum level to minimize stretching of breast tissue.

Note: When symptoms of engorgement are present, make sure you empty your breasts completely during each expression session.

After use

1. Unscrew the bottle. 2A.

To store the breast milk: close the bottle with the sealing disc and screw ring.

2B. To prepare the bottle for feeding your baby: place a teat in a screw ring and screw the assembled screw ring onto the bottle. Seal the teat with the bottle cap (see 'Assembling the bottle'). The Philips Avent teat and bottle cap are not parts of the rental package but they can be purchased separately.

3. Remove the silicone tube and cap from the breast pump kit.

4. Disassemble and clean all parts that have been in contact with breast milk (see 'Cleaning and disinfecting').

5. For easy storage, wrap the silicone tube around the motor unit and clip the cap onto the tube.

Warning: Refrigerate or freeze expressed milk immediately or keep it at a temperature of 16 - 29 ^ C (60-85 ^ F ) for a maximum of 4 hours before you feed your baby.

For more information about the breast pump and tips for expressing milk, visit www.philips.com/avent.

Storing breast milk

Below you find guidelines for storing breast milk:

Storage location Temperature Max. storage duration

Room 16-29 °C (60-85 °F) 4 hours

Refrigerator 4^ C (39 °F) 4 days

Freezer < -4^ C (25°F) 6 months

Warning: Never refreeze thawed breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality.
Warning: Never add fresh breast milk to frozen breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality and unintended thawing of the frozen milk.

Choosing the right teat for your baby

Philips Avent Natural teats are available with different flow rates. You can choose a teat number 1. It is a 0m+ teat, ideal for newborn and breastfed babies of all ages.

Use a lower flow rate if your baby chokes often, if milk drips out of its mouth during feeding or if it has trouble adjusting to the drinking speed. Use a higher flow rate if your baby falls asleep during feeding, gets frustrated or if feeding takes very long.

Philips Avent Natural teats are clearly numbered on the side, to indicate flow rate. For more information, see www.philips.com/avent.

Feeding breast milk with the bottle

For your child's safety and health

WARNING!

• Continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay.
  Always check food temperature before feeding.
• Throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness.
• Keep components not in use out of the reach of children.
• Never attach to cords, ribbons, laces or loose parts of clothing. The child can be strangled.
• Never use feeding teats as a soother.
• Always use this product with adult supervision.
• Keep the bottle cap away from children to avoid suffocation.
• Do not allow children to play with small parts or walk/run while using bottles.
• Inspect all parts before use and pull the feeding teat in all directions. Throw away any part at the first signs of damage or weakness.
  Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.

Caution: To avoid damage to the bottle

• Do not place in a heated oven, plastic can melt.
• Plastic material properties may be affected by disinfection and high temperatures. This can affect the fit of the bottle cap.
• Do not leave a feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in disinfectant for longer than recommended because this may damage the product.

Before using the bottle

• Inspect the bottle and feeding teat before each use and pull the feeding teat in all directions to prevent a choking hazard. Throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness.
• Clean and disinfect the bottle before first use and after every use (see 'Cleaning and disinfecting').

Assembling the bottle

1. The teat is easier to assemble if you move it back-and-forth while pulling it upwards instead of pulling it up in a straight line.

1. Make sure you pull the teat through until its lower part is aligned with the screw ring.

1. Make sure you place the cap vertically onto the bottle so that the teat sits upright.

1. Screw the screw ring with teat and cap on the bottle.

1. To remove the cap, place your hand over the cap and your thumb in the dent of the cap.

Heating breast milk

If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.

Note: If you need to feed your baby quickly, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.

Heat the bottle with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water or in a bottle warmer. Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle.

Always stir heated breast milk to ensure even heat distribution and test the temperature before serving.

Warning: It is not recommended to use a microwave to warm up breast milk. Microwaves might alter the quality of breast milk and destroy some valuable nutrients and may produce localized high temperatures. If you heat up breast milk in the microwave, only place the container without screw ring, teat and cap in microwave. Always stir heated breast milk to ensure even heat distribution and check the temperature before serving.

Storing the bottles

• Store all parts in a dry, clean and covered container.
• Do not leave a feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in disinfectant for longer than recommended because this may damage the product.
• For hygiene reasons, we recommend replacing the teats after 3 months.

Troubleshooting

This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the breast pump. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.

Problem Solution
I experience pain when I use the breast pump.	- Choose a suction level that is comfortable for you. - Check if the silicone diaphragm is not damaged (does not have small cracks, holes etc.). - Make sure that your nipple is placed in the center of the cushion. - If the pain persists, stop using the breast pump and consult your healthcare professional.
The breast pump does not switch on (indicator lights do not go on).	- Check if you are using the adapter that was supplied with the device and that the adapter is connected correctly to the motor unit and wall socket. - Connect the adapter to another wall socket. Then press and hold the on/off button to check if the breast pump can be switched on. - If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center via www.philips.com/support.
All indicator lights on the motor unit are flashing and device shuts off automatically.	- Try to switch on the motor unit again. - Check if you are using the adapter that was supplied with the device. - If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center via www.philips.com/support.
I do not feel any suction/the suction level is too low.	If possible, try a higher suction level. Check if the silicone diaphragm is assembled correctly (see 'Assembling the breast pump'). Check if the white valve is not damaged and assembled correctly (see 'Assembling the breast pump'). Check if the other parts of breast pump are intact and assembled correctly (see 'Assembling the breast pump'). Make sure that the pump is positioned correctly on the breast to allow a seal between breast pump and breast. If you still do not feel any suction, please contact the Consumer Care Center via www.philips.com/support.
The suction of the breast pump is too strong.	If possible, try a lower suction level. When you express for the first time, start with the default suction level (level 5 in stimulation mode, level 11 in expression mode) and increase/decrease the level when needed. During different expression sessions, different levels may feel most comfortable for you. Make sure that you only use the breast pump parts provided with this breast pump. Check if the silicone diaphragm is not damaged (does not have small cracks, holes etc). If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center via www.philips.com/support.
I express little/no milk when I use my breast pump.	If you do not feel enough suction, please check Troubleshooting item 'I do not feel any suction/the suction level is too low'. If you are using the Philips Avent breast pump for the first time, you may need some practice before you are able to express any milk. More expressing tips can be found on the Philips Avent website www.philips.com/avent.
When I switch on the breast pump after storage, it does not start working immediately.	Perhaps you stored the breast pump at a temperature below the minimum storage temperature or above the maximum storage temperature. Let the breast pump acclimate in a room of 20 °C/68 °F for 30 minutes to adjust its temperature to the operating range (5 °C/41 °F to 40 °C/104 °F).
