i Information

WARNING

To avoid health risks and reduce the risk of severe injury:

•Pumping can induce labour. Do not pump until after giving birth. If you become pregnant

while breastfeeding or breast pumping, consult with a licensed healthcare professional

before continuing.

•If infected with Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), pumping

breast milk will not reduce or remove the risk of transmitting the virus to your baby through

your breast milk.

•Wash all parts that come into contact with your breast and breast milk after every use.

•Small parts may be swallowed by toddlers. Close supervision is necessary when the breast

pump or accessories are used in the vicinity of children.

CAUTION

To avoid health risks and reduce the risk of injury:

•This is a single-user product. Use by more than one person may present a health risk.

•The device and its accessories are not heat-resistant. Keep away from heated surfaces or

open flames.

•Do not expose the device to direct sunlight.

•Before each use visually inspect the individual components for damage or wear. Never use

a defective device. Throw away parts at first signs of damage or weakness.

•Do not repair the device by yourself. Do not modify the device.

•Use the device only for its intended purpose as described in these instruction for use.

•Do not microwave or boil breast milk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to baby’s

mouth from hot spots that develop in the milk during microwaving (Microwaving can also

change the composition of breast milk).

•Clean and sanitise all parts that come into contact with your breast and breast milk prior to

first use.

•Only use Medela recommended parts with the device.

•While some discomfort may be felt when first using a breast pump, it should not cause

pain. If you are unsure about correct breast shield sizing please visit www.medela.com or

see a lactation consultant/breastfeeding specialist who can help you get a proper fit.

NOTICE

•Take appropriate care in handling bottles and components:

•Plastic bottles and parts become brittle when frozen and may break when dropped.

•Bottles and parts may become damaged if mishandled (e.g., dropped, over-tightened, or

knocked over).

•Do not use the breast milk from bottles or components that show signs of damage.

4. Getting started

To be ready for expressing milk for the first time, separate the parts of the breast pump, then

wash and sanitise them – see section 5.1.

5. Cleaning

5.1 Washing and sanitising the pump

Washing and sanitising are two different activities. They must be done separately to protect

you and your baby, and to maintain the performance of the device.

Wash – To clean the surfaces of the parts by physically removing contamination.

Sanitise – To kill microorganisms, such as fungi, bacteria or viruses, that may be present on

the surfaces of the parts.

CAUTION

•Separate and wash all parts that are exposed to breast milk immediately after use. This will

help to remove breast milk residue and prevent growth of bacteria.

•Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.

•Only use drinking-quality tap water or bottled water for cleaning.

•Do not place pump parts directly in the sink to rinse or wash. Use a clean wash basin used

only for infant feeding items.

•Do not use a dish towel to rub or pat items dry.

•Do not use disinfectants for cleaning.

NOTICE

Pay attention to the following:

•Take care not to damage parts of the pump during cleaning. Do not use a sharp object

(such as a toothpick) for cleaning.

•Some parts of the Harmony breast pump are very small (e.g. the O-ring or the valve

membrane). Make sure that no parts are missing when you reassemble the pump after

cleaning.

•Store the dried pump parts in a clean bag/container until next use.

•Do not store wet or damp parts as mould may develop.

•If you notice a white residue on the parts after boiling, your water may have a high mineral

content. Remove residue by wiping parts with a clean towel and allow to air dry.

•Distilled water is recommended when boiling parts to prevent substantial mineral build-up

over time, which may compromise your parts.

i Information

If using the dishwasher, parts may become discoloured. This will not impact the part function.

What to do when: See detailed instructions on the next page.

Before first use, remove and dispose of the protective cover ( ¢6-01) from the breast shield.

•Check pump components for wear or damage before use. Replace if necessary.

•Always inspect all parts prior to use for cleanliness. If dirty, clean according to chapter 5.

NOTICE

O-ring

Stem

The O-ring ensures a sealed connection between the handle and the

connector. This is necessary to build up a vacuum.

Make sure that the white O-ring is present in its groove of the stem.

If it is missing or defective, contact the Medela Customer Service.

6.1 Selecting the correct breast shield size

Refer to figure ¢7 on the foldout pages.

1. For proper sizing, measure the diameter of your nipple ( ¢7-01).

2. Select the breast shield that is slightly larger than your nipple ( ¢7-02).

For more information on breast shield sizing, visit www.medela.com.

6.2 Assembling the connector and breast shield

Refer to figure ¢2 on the foldout pages.

1. ¢2-01 Carefully push the breast shield into the top opening of the connector.

ÆChoose a breast shield size that suits your needs.

2. ¢2-02 Place the valve membrane in a horizontal position on the valve head. Carefully

push the knob on the membrane‘s back into the smallest hole of the head until it engages.

ÆThe membrane must lie flat on the head.

3. ¢2-03 Push the valve head onto the inner sleeve of the connector.

ÆThe valve head must be positioned sideways as shown in the picture.

4. ¢2-04 Screw the bottle into the connector.

6.3 Assembling the handle

1. ¢3-01 Insert the stem (with the O-ring) into the hole on the upper side of the diaphragm.

2. ¢3-02 Make sure that the oval shaped base of the stem is aligned correctly to the

diaphragm.

3. ¢3-03 Place the diaphragm into the pump handle. Mind the orientation (the recess in the

diaphragm engages on the tongue in the handle) and press down firmly around the entire

edge to ensure a proper seal.

4. ¢3-04 Insert the stem of the handle assembly in the opening on top of the connector.

Push until the stem locks into place.

6.4 Placing the breast shield

Refer to figure ¢4 on the foldout pages.

1. The oval breast shields can be rotated (360°) and placed in the desired position to have

the most comfortable fit for you.

2. ¢4-01 Place the breast shield on the breast so that the nipple is properly centred in the

tunnel.

3. ¢4-02 Hold the breast shield onto your breast with your thumb and index finger. Support

your breast with the palm of your hand.

4. Start pumping as described in section 7.2.

7. Operating your breast pump

7.1 Mimicking the baby’s rhythm (2-Phase expression)

Babies use a “two-speed” sucking action. At first, they suck quickly, and then they switch to a

slower, deeper sucking rhythm once milk starts to flow. The quicker sucking action stimulates

the milk ejection reflex and triggers the milk flow; the slower sucking draws the milk out for the

feeding phase.

2-Phase expression is a “two-speed” pumping action that mimics the baby’s natural sucking

rhythms. The pump’s handle design allows you to begin with fast sucking action called the

stimulation phase. For this, you actuate the short side of the handle with your thumb in a fast

manner. When you see milk flow or feel milk ejection, you can then switch to the expression

phase by actuating the longer side of the handle with your fingers in a slower, full stroke

manner.
