TIPS FOR FREEZING MILK
• Freeze milk in quantities of 2 to 4 ounce portions. This allows milk to thaw quicker and creates
less waste if your baby does not drink it all.
• ALWAYS use thawed milk within 24 hours of thawing.
• NEVER refreeze milk once it has been defrosted.
• DO NOT use a microwave oven to thaw frozen breast milk.
• Thaw frozen breast milk in the refrigerator for several hours or with warm water. If thawing
with warm water, you may need to gently shake the container to blend any fat that has
separated.
WARNING
DO NOT warm milk in a microwave oven as it destroys nutrients and antibodies and can create
hot spots harmful for your baby.
DO NOT use a bottle warmer to warm breast milk, unless the bottle warmer is specially designed
to work with breast milk.
NEVER immerse a frozen bottle into boiling water as this may cause the bottle to crack.
Product Return Policy
For reasons of hygiene, this breast pump cannot be returned to the store once it has been
manufacturer's warranty.
INSTALL/CHANGE BATTERIES
It's a good idea to keep fresh batteries with you so you can replace them immediately, if
necessary, during pumping (especially if an outlet is not available). You'll know batteries are
getting weak if the pump slows down and begins to make straining noises. If the batteries die
completely, the pump will stop.
