Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips Avent! To fully benefit from the support that Philips Avent offers, register your breast pump at www.philips.com/welcome.

The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Premium is inspired by babies and their natural suction movement. The soft silicone cushion stimulates the nipple with gentle massaging movements, helping you to express milk comfortably and effectively. The combination of suction and nipple stimulation triggers fast milk flow. The no-lean-forward design enables you to sit in a relaxed, upright position while expressing.

Healthcare professionals and the World Health Organization recommend breast milk as the primary source of nutrition during the first year of life, combined with solid food after the first 6 months. This is because your breast milk is specially adapted to your baby’s needs and helps to protect your baby against infection and allergies. To breastfeed longer, you can express and store your milk so that your baby can still enjoy the benefits of it, even if you cannot be there to provide it yourself. As the pump is compact, quiet and discrete to use, you can take it with you anywhere, allowing you to express milk at your own convenience and to maintain your milk supply.

If breastfeeding goes well, it is advisable (unless recommended otherwise by your healthcare professional) to wait until your milk supply and breastfeeding schedule are established (normally at least 2 to 4 weeks after giving birth) before you start expressing.

Storing breast milk

Below you find guidelines for storing breast milk:

Storage location	Temperature	Max. storage duration
Room	16-29 C (60-85 F)	4 hours
Refrigerator	4 C (39 F)	4 days
Freezer	< -4 C (25 F)	6-12 months

Warning: Never refreeze thawed breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality.

20 English

Warning: Never add fresh breast milk to frozen breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality and unintended thawing of the frozen milk.

Feeding breast milk with the bottle

Warning: For your child's safety and health

-Always use this bottle with adult supervision.

-Never use feeding teats as a soother, to prevent a choking hazard.

-Continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay.

-Always check the food temperature before you feed your baby.

-Keep all components not in use out of the reach of children.

-Keep the bottle cap away from children to avoid suffocation.

-Do not allow children to play with small parts or walk/run while using bottles.

-Inspect all parts before use and pull the feeding teat in all directions. Throw away any part at the first signs of damage or weakness.

-Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.

Caution: To avoid damage to the bottle

-Do not place in a heated oven, plastic can melt.

-Plastic material properties may be affected by disinfection and high temperatures. This can affect the fit of the bottle cap.

-Do not leave a feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in disinfectant for longer than recommended because this may damage the product.

Before using the bottle

-Inspect the bottle and feeding teat before each use and pull the feeding teat in all directions to prevent a choking hazard. Throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness.

-Clean and disinfect the bottle before first use and after every use.

English 21

Assembling the bottle

2. Make sure you pull the 3. Make sure you place teat through until its the cap vertically onto lower part is aligned with the bottle so that the the screw ring. teat sits upright.

Heating breast milk

If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.

4. Screw the screw ring with teat and cap on the bottle.

Note: If you need to feed your baby quickly, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.

Heat the bottle with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water or in a bottle warmer. Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle.

Always stir or shake heated breast milk to ensure even heat distribution and test the temperature before serving.

Warning: It is not recommended to use a microwave to warm up breast milk. Microwaves might alter the quality of breast milk and destroy some valuable nutrients and may produce localized high temperatures. If you heat up breast milk in the microwave, only place the container without screw ring, teat and cap in microwave. Always stir heated breast milk to ensure even heat distribution and check the temperature before serving.

22 English

Choosing the right teat for your baby

Philips Avent Natural teats are available with different flow rates. The breast pump comes with teat number 1. This is a 0m+ teat, ideal for newborn and

breastfed babies of all ages.

Use a lower flow rate if your baby chokes often, if milk dribbles out of its mouth during feeding or if it has trouble adjusting to the drinking speed. Use a higher flow rate if your baby falls asleep during feeding, gets frustrated or if feeding takes very long.

Philips Avent Natural teats are clearly numbered on the side, to indicate flow rate. For more information, see www.philips.com/avent.

Storing the bottles

-Store all parts in a dry, clean and covered container.

-Do not leave a feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in disinfectant (‘sterilizing solution’) for longer than recommended, as this may weaken the parts.

-For hygiene reasons, we recommend to replace the teats after 3 months.

Compatibility

The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Premium is compatible with all baby bottles in the Philips Avent Natural range and Philips Avent Storage cups with adapter. We do not recommend to use the Philips Avent Natural Glass bottles with the breast pump.

Ordering accessories

To buy accessories or spare parts, visit www.philips.com/parts-and-accessories or go to your Philips dealer. You can also contact the Philips Consumer Care Center in your country.

When you order spare teats, make sure that you use a teat with the correct flow rate for your baby (see 'Choosing the right teat for your baby') and do not mix Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle parts and teats with parts of the Philips Avent Natural bottles. They do not fit and could cause leakage or other issues.

Einführung

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu Ihrem Kauf und willkommen bei Philips Avent! Um den Support von Philips optimal zu nutzen, registrieren Sie Ihre Milchpumpe bitte unter www.philips.com/welcome.

Die Philips Avent elektrische Einzel-/Doppelmilchpumpe Premium ahmt die natürliche Saugbewegung Ihres Babys nach. Das weiche Silikonkissen regt die Brustwarze mit sanften Massagebewegungen an und hilft Ihnen dabei, Milch bequem und effektiv abzupumpen. Die Kombination aus Saugen und Stimulation der Brustwarten regt den Milchfluss schnell an. Das Design ist so konzipiert, dass Sie sich beim Abpumpen nicht nach vorne beugen müssen, sondern eine entspannte, aufrechte Position einnehmen können.

Gesundheitsexperten und die Weltgesundheitsorganisation empfehlen Muttermilch im ersten Lebensjahr als Hauptnahrung – nach den ersten 6 Monaten in Kombination mit fester Nahrung. Ihre Muttermilch ist speziell auf die Bedürfnisse Ihres Babys abgestimmt und trägt zum Schutz Ihres Baby vor Infektionen und Allergien bei. Die Milchpumpe kann Ihnen dabei helfen, länger zu stillen. Sie können Ihre Milch abpumpen und aufbewahren, sodass Ihr Baby selbst dann davon profitieren kann, wenn sie nicht selbst vor Ort sein können. Da die Pumpe kompakt, leise und diskret in der Verwendung ist, können Sie sie überallhin mitnehmen. So können Sie Ihre Milch abpumpen, wann immer Sie möchten, und Ihren Milchfluss aufrecht erhalten.

Damit sich das Stillen gut einspielt, ist es ratsam, (sofern Ihnen in Rücksprache mit medizinischem Fachpersonal nichts anderweitiges empfohlen wurde) mit dem Abpumpen der Milch so lange zu warten, bis sich Ihr Milchfluss an einen festen Zeitplan zum Stillen angepasst hat (sofern Ihnen Ihr medizinisches Fachpersonal nichts anderweitiges empfohlen wurde). Normalerweise dauert dies nach der Entbindung mindestens 2 bis 4 Wochen.
