1. Getting Started

Please take time to read the

Instruction Booklet to familiarise

yourself with your pump. It is

important that you know exactly how

your Philips AVENT Single Electronic

Breast Pump works. You should use

the pump at home until you feel

completely at ease, before beginning

to use it outside the home.
The Single Electronic Breast Pump

bag has been specially designed for

you to discreetly express and store

your breast milk while away from

your baby, then bring it home safely.

You can maintain your milk supply

by expressing at a time you would

normally breastfeed and continue to

breastfeed when you and your baby

are together.
Before using your Single Electronic

Breast Pump, please consult your

health professional or breastfeeding

advisor regarding your breastfeeding

and breast milk expression schedule.

2. How to Pack

Before you go out, make sure

your breast pump body, breast

milk containers and sealing discs

are washed and sterilised. The

pump body and breast milk storage

components are steriliser and

dishwasher safe*. Always ensure your

hands are clean before packing your

breast pump into the bag, using the

funnel cover and sealing base to keep

the pump sterile and compact for

travel, as shown.

into the refrigerator immediately.

You can use the drawstring bag

provided for discreet

storage.
Wash the pump

body, replace the

funnel cover and sealing base

and place in the insulated bag. If you

wish to use the pump again, you must

re-sterilise.
When you are ready to leave, take

the container of breast milk from the

refrigerator. Take the cool packs from

the freezer and place them inside

the bag on top of the container. This

will keep the milk cool during your

journey home. Ensure containers are

transported upright within the bag

to prevent leaking.
In hot climates, avoid storing the bag

containing expressed breast milk in a

car, office, cabinet etc. Milk must be

sufficiently chilled to avoid spoilage.

4. When You Return Home

As soon as you reach home, put

the cool packs into the freezer and

the expressed breast milk into the

refrigerator or freezer. Milk can be

stored for up to 48 hours (from first

expression) in the refrigerator and

up to 3 months in the freezer. Always

store breast milk in the back of the

refrigerator, not in the door. You

must sterilise your Single Electronic

Breast Pump body and breast milk

containers before each use*. Clean

the insulated bag and other pump

parts with a soft damp cloth after

each use.

* See the Instruction Booklet for full details.
