Uses
• To initiate and maintain a milk supply as well as
collect breastmilk at work or during other absences
from the baby.
• To initiate and maintain a milk supply if direct
breastfeeding is not possible.
• To relieve engorgement. Single pumping with
simultaneous massage is helpful to relieve
engorgement.
Cleaning and Sterilization
Unless instructed otherwise by your health care provider.
IMPORTANT
This product’s kit is a single-user item unless properly
sterilized between users. Use by more than one user
without adequate sterilization may pose a health risk
and voids the warranty
Hygiene
Wash hands before touching breasts
or containers, and avoid touching the
inside of containers or lids.
Preparation
Follow these cleaning instructions unless you are told
otherwise by your healthcare professional. Prior to cleaning, take apart all parts of your breastpump accessory kit.
Be especially sure to remove the yellow valve from the
breastshield and separate the white membrane from the
valve prior to cleaning.
.
Prior To First Use
The Symphony sanitized version does not require wash-
ing before first use.
To Sterilize in the Hospital:
All disassembled parts can be autoclaved to a maximum
of 272° F for 3 minutes at 29 PSIG or 250° F for 15-20
minutes at 15 PSIG. If autoclaved membrane caps may
require more force to attach to pump.
To avoid damage during and immediately after sterilization:
•
Sterilize parts without applying external pressure to them.
• Allow parts to cool before applying external pressure.
If gas sterilization is used, residual testing is recommended to determine the proper length of aeration.
To Sanitize at Home:
Disassemble, refer to diagram on page 6. Sanitize by
boiling for 10 minutes.
After each use:
• Disassemble and wash all parts that come in contact
with the breast and milk in warm soapy water.
• Rinse in clear water.
Air-dry on clean towel and cover parts when not in use.
•
All parts may also be washed in top rack of dishwasher.
For Quicker Cleaning:
Medela offers Quick Clean™Micro-Steam™Bags for daily

Symphony 2-Phase Pumping Protocol
Maximum Comfort Vacuum
Research has shown that you will pump more efficiently—
meaning get more milk in less time—when pumping at
Maximum Comfort Vacuum in the Expression Phase.
Begin in Stimulation Phase
11
First, start the pump by pressing
the on/off button. The pump will
immediately begin pumping in
Stimulation Phase of the 2-Phase
Expression.
Switch to Expression Phase
22
Once your milk starts to flow,
or you sense milk ejection, press
the let-down button to switch to
the Expression Phase for the most
effective pumping and removal
of milk. If you do not press the
let-down button, the pump will
automatically switch to the Expression Phase after
two minutes.
Setting your Maximum
33
Comfort Vacuum
Maximum Comfort Vacuum is the
highest vacuum you can use and
still feel comfortable; it is different
for every mom. To find your
maximum comfort vacuum,
increase the vacuum by turning the Vacuum
Regulator Knob clockwise until pumping feels slightly
uncomfortable—never painful. Then, decrease the
vacuum one bar by turning the knob counterclockwise.

Symphony 2.0 Program Card –
Addressing Special Needs
The Symphony 2.0 Program Card includes a feature that
allows moms to switch back to the Stimulation Phase by
pressing the let-down button. Some moms find this feature beneficial in addressing the following special needs.
Please note that the Stimulation Phase is always limited to
two minutes.
11
No milk ejection occurs in the first two minutes
of the Stimulation Phase
If your milk ejection has not occurred in the first two
minutes of the Stimulation Phase and the pump
automatically switches to the Expression Phase, press
the let-down button once to return to the Stimulation
Phase. If you have not achieved a milk ejection after two
consecutive Stimulation Phases, take a break, relax and
try again in 15-30 minutes.
Engorgement
22
If, due to engorgement, you are experiencing difficulties
breastfeeding or expressing milk, careful use of the
Stimulation Phase may help to provide some relief. If your
milk ejection does not occur in the first two minutes of the
Stimulation Phase and the pump automatically switches
to the Expression Phase, pr
return to the Stimulation Phase. Repeat this process until
your milk ejection occurs. After milk ejection you may find
it beneficial to remain in the Stimulation Phase until
enough milk has been expressed so that the nipple and
areola area are not as hard and engorged. After initially
draining the breast to relieve the discomfort, follow up
with breastfeeding or pumping and expressing in the
Expression Phase to adequately drain the breast.

Defrosting
• Thaw milk overnight in the refrigerator, or hold the bottle
under warm running water to quickly thaw. You can also
place the sealed container in a bowl of warm water for 20
minutes to bring it to body temperature.
• Thawed milk is safe in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Do not refreeze.
Caution:
• Do not thaw frozen breastmilk in a microwave or in a
pan of boiling water.
• Never microwave breastmilk. 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 breastmilk.
• If adding expressed breastmilk to container of already
frozen breastmilk, make sure to add a lesser amount
than the already frozen amount.
Troubleshooting
If There Is Low or No Suction
• Make sure all connections of kit and breastpump are
secure.
• If using a unit with a battery, make sure the battery
is charged.
• Make sure membrane is lying flat against valve head.
Refer to the assembly instructions.
• Make sure the hard yellow ends of the tubing fit securely
into breastshield connectors and the other ends into the
ports on the pump connector or membrane caps.
