Operating instructions for Minikit Solo

Intended Use

Product description

a. Indications

When breastfeeding is not possible or insufficient, the breast pump assists mothers in breastfeeding so that the baby can still benefit from their breast milk. The breast pump operates at different stages of lactation: upon the first use, it helps to stimulate lactation and, afterwards, helps to sustain it in the long run.

There are many reasons why women express their milk:

- medical reasons: engorgement, mastitis, prematurity or neonatal pathologies,

- when breastfeeding is impossible or difficult: cracks, inverted nipples, painful breastfeeding,

- initiation and maintenance of lactation,

- the temporary cessation of breastfeeding for treatment incompatible with breastfeeding,

- building up milk reserves in the event of the mother’s temporary absence,

- resumption of work for mothers who wish to continue feeding their babies.

b. Contraindications and adverse effects

There are no known contraindications to the use of the MINIKIT SOLO electric breast pump.

The MINIKIT SOLO breast pump is a personal electric pump. It can be used in case of temporary separation or any other reason making breastfeeding impossible or not sufficient.

Easy to carry and simple to use, it is ideal for active mothers.

The MINIKIT SOLO pump operates in simple mains or battery operated pump operation. Thanks to its 5 setting levels, it tends to reproduce the feeding physiology: the mother experiences the stimulation and expression phases.

All KOLOR

breast shield sizes connect to the breast pump. The mother can thus have a suitable sized breast shield for her breast morphology to provide optimal comfort for an effective, long-lasting breastfeeding experience.

The MINIKIT SOLO breast pump is equipped with the «Clean Valve» technology which limits the risk of bacterial contamination through the fingers on parts in contact with breast milk.

b. Selecting the breast shield size

The MINIKIT SOLO breast pump is used with the KIT EXPRESSION KOLOR®. A breast shield is included in the MINIKIT SOLO standard Breast Pump package. The KOLOR

breast shield is available in 4 inner diameters and 2 «comfort» sizes

that adapt perfectly to the breast morphology and guarantee a high level of comfort.

• 4 inner diameters: 4 colour codes • 2 comfort sizes:

S = 76 mm et L = 90 mm

Kitett helps you choose the breast shield using:

- The Kolorama size ruler.

Cleaning

and disinfecting accessories

• Before using for the first time and after each use:

a. Cleaning

- Rinse all the parts in contact with the milk in cold water, then clean with hot and soapy water.

- Rinse all parts. Assemble the two parts of the valve: the diaphragm on the intermediate ring (making sure that the valve is nested in the ring). Assemble the three parts making up the protective membrane. Check that the white diaphragm is correctly positioned in its housing (press down on the edges to ensure a good seal around the membrane)

- Allow to air dry on a paper towel.

Note: It is best to clean all parts in contact with breast milk

immediately after using the breast pump. This facilitates cleaning and avoids the development of bacteria.

• Before first use and regularly during use:

b. Disinfecting at home

Disinfect all parts in boiling water (10 minutes minimum), in a dishwasher or in a microwave steriliser. *

*Refer to the manufacturer’s data for the microwave sterilizer and do not exceed 1000 Watt.

Note: If disinfection takes place in boiling water and your water is hard, you

can add a few drops of white vinegar (2 or 3 drops) to avoid deposits on the walls of the parts.

• Special case: If condensation appears in the pipe or when milk enters inside, rinse

the tubing to remove liquid residue.

KOLOR® breast shields are guaranteed BPA and Phthalate free. They are reusable for as long as the breast pump is used. The breast shield is a one-piece which favors an optimized hygiene, and makes it possible not to touch the thread nor the internal parts of the feeding collection container and the breast shield.

Measurements:

Measurement should be taken after breastfeeding or expressing your milk. Alternatively, “when at rest”, add an extra 2mm to your nipple measurement to select the correct inner diameter size.

The nipple should not feel too constricted neither too free. You should see space around your nipple in order to let it move easily in the funnel during pumping.

- If the breast shield is too tight: lesions, compressed ducts

- if the breast shield is too wide: less milk will be expressed A correct comfort size (external S or L comfort shape) will improve breast pump

(optimal airtightness).
