To fully benefit from the support that Philips Avent offers, register your breast pump at www.philips.com/mybreastpump. The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Advanced is inspired by babies and their natural suction movement. The soft silicone flange 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. 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.6 English General description Note: The numbers mentioned below refer to the numbers in the figure on the front foldout page of this user manual. Note: The single breast pump (SCF392/62) includes one set and the double breast pump (SCF394/62) includes two sets of the breast pump kit and Philips Avent Natural bottle shown in Figures B andC.

Warning: Before you remove the pump body from your breast, always switch off the

breast pump to release the vacuum.

Warning: Do not continue pumping for more than 5 minutes at a time if you do not

succeed in expressing any milk. Try to express at another time during the day.

Warning: If the process becomes very uncomfortable or painful, stop using the pump

and consult your healthcare professional. Caution: If discomfort is felt, then suction can be broken by inserting a finger between the breast and the flange. Note: If you regularly express more than 125ml/4floz per session, you can purchase and use a 260ml/9floz Philips Avent Natural bottle to prevent overfilling and spillage.

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.22 English 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 nipple in a screw ring and screw the assembled screw ring onto the bottle. Seal the nipple with the bottle cap (see 'Assembling the bottle').

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 as soon as possible after pumping (see 'Cleaning and disinfecting').

5. Clean all parts that do

not come into contact with the breast and breast milk (see 'Cleaning and disinfecting'). For easy storage, wrap the silicone tube around the motor unit and clip the cap onto the tube.

Warning: Refrigerate or freeze expressed breast milk immediately, label with date and

time, or keep it at a room temperature of up to 77°F (25°C) for a maximum of 4hours before you feed your baby. Note: For more information about the breast pump and tips for expressing milk, visit www.philips.com/avent.23 English English

Instructions for storing breast milk

Write the date on the storage container. Include your child's name if you are giving the milk to a child care provider.

Gently swirl the container to mix the cream part of the breast milk that may rise to the top back into the rest of the milk. Do not shake the milk. This can make some of the milk’s valuable parts break down.

Refrigerate or chill milk right after it is pumped, if possible. You can put it in the refrigerator, place it in a cooler or insulated cooler pack, or freeze it in small (2 to 4ounce) batches for later feedings. Pumped milk at room temperature is fine without being refrigerated for up to 4hours after pumping. Below you find guidelines for storing breast milk: Storage location and temperaturesType of breast milk Countertop 77°F (25°C) or colder (room temperature) Refrigerator 40°F (4°C) Freezer 0°F (-18°C) or colder Freshly expressed or pumped Up to 4hours Up to 4 days Within 6 months is best Up to 12 months is acceptable Thawed, previously frozen 1–2hours Up to 1 day (24 hours) NEVER refreeze human milk after it has been thawed Leftover from a feeding (baby did not finish the bottle) Use within 2hours after the baby is finished feeding Source: https://www.cdc.gov/breastfeeding/recommendations/handling_breastmilk.htm

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. Feeding breast milk with the bottle

Warning: For your child's safety and health

Always use this bottle with adult supervision.

Never use feeding nipples as a pacifier, to prevent choking hazard.

Continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay.

Always check the food temperature before you feed your baby.

Keep all components not in use out of the reach of children.

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.24 English

Inspect all parts before use and pull the feeding nipple 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 nipple 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 nipple before each use and pull the feeding nipple 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 nipple is easier to

assemble if you move it back-and-forth while pulling it upwards instead of pulling it up in a straight line.

2. Make sure you pull the

nipple through until its lower part is aligned with the screw ring.

3. Make sure you place

the cap vertically onto the bottle so that the nipple sits upright.

4. Screw the screw ring

with nipple and cap on the bottle.

5. To remove the cap,

place your hand over the cap and your thumb in the dent of the cap.25 English English Instructions for safe thawing and heating of breast milk

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

Always thaw the oldest breast milk first. Remember first in, first out. Over time, the quality of breast milk can decrease.

There are several ways to thaw your breast milk:

In the refrigerator overnight.

Set in a container of warm or lukewarm water.

Under lukewarm running water.

Never thaw or heat breast milk in a microwave. Microwaving can destroy nutrients in breast milk and create hot spots, which can burn a baby’s mouth.

Use breast milk within 24hours of thawing in the refrigerator (this means from the time it is no longer frozen or completely thawed, not from the time when you took it out of the freezer).

Once breast milk is brought to room temperature or warmed after storing in the refrigerator or freezer, it should be used within 2hours.

Never refreeze breast milk once it has been thawed.

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. Choosing the right nipple for your baby Philips Avent Natural feeding nipples are available with different flow rates. The breast pump comes with nipple number 1. This is a 0m+ nipple, 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 feeding nipples are clearly numbered on the side, to indicate flow rate. For more information, see www.philips.com/avent. Storing the bottles

Store all parts in a dry, clean and covered container.

Do not leave a feeding nipple 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 feeding nipples after 3 months. Compatibility The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Advanced is compatible with all baby bottles in the Philips Avent Natural range and Philips Avent Storage cups with adapter. We do not recommend using the Philips Avent Natural Glass bottles with the breast pump. Ordering accessories To buy accessories or spare parts, visit www.philips.com/support or go to your Philips dealer. You can also contact the Philips Consumer Care Center in your country.26 English When you order spare feeding nipples, make sure that you use a nipple with the correct flow rate for your baby (see 'Choosing the right nipple for your baby') and do not mix Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle parts and nipples with parts of the Philips Avent Natural bottles. They do not fit and could cause leakage or other issues. Disposal
