Sterilising the pump bodies
and breast milk storage
components
Sterilise these parts in a steam steriliser
(electric or microwave), or by boiling in
water for 10 minutes.
The AVENT electric and microwave steam
sterilisers are specially designed to hold the
ISIS breast pumps and the parts will remain
sterile inside the steriliser for 3 hours,
provided the lid is not removed.
™
Keeping your pump sterile
and compact for travel
After sterilising all parts, clip the funnel
cover (h) over the funnel and let-down
massage cushion (g) and screw the
travel cover (s) onto the pump body (d)
in place of the milk container.

How to use your ISIS iQ DUO
Before you use your ISIS iQ DUO, make sure you have washed, sterilised
and carefully assembled your pump exactly as described on pages 5-10.
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.
To begin pumping
Switch on your ISIS iQ DUO and the light
on the top of the pump motor will flash
GREEN rapidly (this is normal, it is your
iQ breast pump conducting a ‘self test’).
The light will then change to a continuous
GREEN to indicate that the pump is ready
to use. If at any time this light is flashing
RED, stop and consult the ‘Troubleshooting
guide’ on pages 19-20.
1
™
Press the assembled control 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.
11
2
Page 12
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.
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 DUO will
automatically continue in the same way.
The light on the pump motor will turn from
GREEN to ORANGE. Your pattern will now
be stored in the pump’s memory – even
after the pump has been switched off!
3
4
To double pump
Check that the pump is assembled exactly
as described on page 10. When you’re
ready to double pump the second pump
will already have learned your pumping
pattern, all you have to do is hold it
against your other breast and create a seal,
just as you did with the controller pump.
Or if you prefer you can start with both
pumps against your breasts.
5
12
Page 13
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 GREEN. You can now pump manually until you are
comfortable again. Then press the control button again and ISIS IQ will
continue your chosen rhythm.
To stop pumping
If at any time the suction becomes uncomfortable or if you want to stop
pumping, press the control button and break the seal between the breast
and the pump body with your finger. You can then turn the pump motor off.
To collect your milk
After you have expressed your milk, unscrew
the pump body from the milk container. If
you’re using AVENT milk containers, insert a
sealing disc into the locking ring (r) and twist
it onto the milk container. If you’re using VIA,
unscrew the adaptor and screw a lid onto
the cup.
On average you will need to pump for
10 minutes to express 60-120ml/2-4ozs
from each breast. However, this is just
a guide and varies from woman to woman.
If you find that you regularly express more
than 120ml/4oz per session, please use
a 260ml/9oz AVENT milk container.
Do not overfill the milk container and be sure
to keep it upright, otherwise it may leak from
below the pump body.

Hints to help you succeed
Using a breast pump takes practice. You may need to make several
attempts before you succeed, but because the ISIS iQ DUO™ is so simple
and comfortable to use, you will soon get used to expressing milk.
1. Choose a quiet time when you’re not rushed and unlikely
to be disturbed.
2. Having your baby or a photograph of your baby nearby can help
encourage your milk to flow.
3. Warmth and relaxation can help so you might like to try expressing
after a warm bath or shower.
4. Placing a warm cloth on your breasts for a few minutes before
you start pumping can also encourage your milk flow and soothe
painful breasts.
5. Try expressing from one breast while your baby is feeding on the
other, or continue expressing just after a feed.
6. Repositioning the pump on your breasts from time to time can
help stimulate your milk ducts.
7. Some women may prefer to use the pump without the let-down
massage cushion. However, it has been shown that, in most cases,
the massaging effect of the petals flexing in and out around the
areola stimulates the let-down reflex and allows you to express
more milk, more quickly.
8. To relieve engorgement, we recommend gentle and slow single
pumping to relieve the pressure.
Practice with your pump to find the best pumping techniques for you.
Don’t worry if your milk doesn’t flow immediately, relax and continue
pumping. BUT if after five minutes no result is achieved try again at
another time. If expressing becomes painful, stop and consult your
breastfeeding advisor.

How to use your ISIS
manual breast pump
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.
1
Press the let-down massage
cushion firmly against your
breast to create a perfect seal.
2
Gently squeeze the handle
5 or 6 times fairly quickly to
initiate let-down.
When you see your milk
beginning to flow, establish
a rhythm of pumping to meet
your own comfort level.

Storing your expressed
breast milk
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge or
freezer in either sterile Breast Milk Storage
Containers (125ml/4oz or 260ml/9oz fitted
with sealing discs) or in pre-sterilised
disposable VIA cups.
Expressed milk should be refrigerated
immediately.
Only milk collected with a sterile pump
should be stored to be fed to your baby.
Expressed breast milk can be stored in the
refrigerator for up to 48 hours (not in the
door) or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
If you are storing freshly expressed milk in
the fridge to add to during the day, only add
milk which has been expressed into a sterile
container. Milk can only be kept like this for a
maximum of 48 hours from first expression,
after which it must be used immediately or
frozen for future use.
Frozen breast milk can be defrosted overnight in the refrigerator,
heated gradually in warm water or heated on the lowest setting
of the AVENT Bottle and Babyfood Warmer.
Note:
• NEVER refreeze breast milk.
• DO NOT add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk.
17
Caution: Never immerse a frozen milk container or VIA cup
in boiling water as this may cause it to crack/split.

Cracking or
discolouration
of pump parts
• Avoid contact with antibacterial detergents/
cleaners as they can damage the plastic.
Combinations of detergents, cleaning products,
sterilising solution, softened water and
temperature fluctuations may, under certain
circumstances, cause the plastic to crack. If this
occurs, do not use. The pump bodies and breast
milk containers are dishwasher safe but food
colourings may discolour them. Follow guidelines
in ‘How to clean and sterilise your ISIS iQ DUO™’
on pages 5-6 of the instruction booklet.
