Symphony® Pumping Kit Assembly

Wash hands with soap and water

prior to handling your kit.

10 Close lid before

pumping.

(If lid does not

down the oval

button on the top of

the Symphony

breastpump and

lift up on the

handle.

9 Push membrane

caps into place on

the pump. A “click”

will be heard once

properly seated.

(Note: if single

one membrane cap.)

12 To turn the pump

on, press the power

button. You will be

starting in the

Stimulation Phase.

11 Center

breastshields over

your nipples and

start pumping.

(Caution: pushing

shields too firmly

onto breasts may

reduce milk flow.)

13 If let-down

occurs before the

Expression Phase

begins, press the

let-down button

to begin the

Expression Phase.

14 When your pumping session is over, store your

breastmilk and clean your kit. See the Breastpump Kit Care

section for cleaning instructions.

For breastmilk storage guidelines go to

www.BreastmilkGuidelines.com

Good hygiene will help protect the

breastmilk that you give to your baby. For

the best protection when handling your

breastmilk, wash your hands with soap

and water, and follow the guidelines for

cleaning, drying, and storing your kit.

How do I disassemble my kit?

1 Finish pumping.

While the pump

is still running,

disconnect tubing from

breastshields.

(Note: It is important to let

pump run for 2minutes with

tubing attached. This will

eliminate condensation that

naturally results from humidity.)

2 Remove collection container and

store breastmilk. For breastmilk

storage guidelines go to www.

BreastmilkGuidelines.com.

c Remove the white

b Twist and pull the

a Separate breastshields.

3 Disassemble.

All parts that come in contact with your breast and breastmilk must be

disassembled and washed for the kit and pump to function efficiently.

1 Wash kit.

Rinse all separated parts in cool

water to remove breastmilk.

2 Wash and Rinse -or- Dishwasher

• Wash all separated

parts in warm,

soapy water.

• Rinse all separated

parts with clear

water.

• Wash all separated

parts on top rack

of dishwasher.

Cleaning

Drying & Storing

Allow all breastpump kit parts to air dry in a clean area and store dry

parts when not in use. Do NOT store wet or damp parts.

Sanitizing

In addition to washing, you may sanitize your kit parts once per day by

following the instructions on Medela’s Quick Clean™ Micro-Steam™ bag

or boiling.

If boiling your kit:

1 Separate all parts that come in contact with your breast and

breastmilk.

2 Choose a pot that is large enough so the kit parts DO NOT

rest on the sides or bottom while boiling.

3 Fill the pot with water and bring to a boil.

4 Carefully drop parts into boiling water, and boil for 10 minutes.

5 Gently remove parts from water with tongs and place on a clean

surface.

6 See Drying & Storing section (above) for further instructions.

Quicker Cleaning

You can use Medela’s QuickClean

wipes in between pumping sessions

and then clean your kit once you get

home. Follow instructions on Quick

Clean package.

To Sterilize Kits 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.

To avoid damage during and immediately after sterilization:

• Sterilize parts without applying external pressure.

• Allow parts to cool before applying external pressure.

Note: if gas sterilization is used, residual testing is recommended to

determine the proper length of aeration.

Tubing Care

It is not necessary to clean tubing after each use. If your tubing comes

in contact with breastmilk clean it by following these directions.

• Rinse and run cold water through tubing to remove breastmilk.

• Dry tubing by attaching it to pump and running for 2minutes or

until dry. This will eliminate condensation that naturally results from

humidity.

• In addition to washing, you may sanitize by following the

instructions on page 8.

• Tubing may appear cloudy after boiling or microsteaming.

Breastpump Kit Care

Troubleshooting

If you feel the pump is not giving sufficient suction, you can check

several things:

• Make sure white membrane is clean and lies completely flat on the

yellow valve.

• Make sure breastpump is plugged in.

• Check and secure all connections of kit and breastpump.

• Verify that yellow valve on breastpump kit is fitted correctly into the

breastshield connector.

• Ensure that the pale yellow ends of the tubing fit securely into

connectors and the triangular two-tone yellow ends into the

membrane caps. (Refer to Symphony kit assembly instructions.)

• Inspect Symphony membranes. If membranes appear to be worn or

have a tear they need to be replaced (Article#8200094).

Tips for Success

• Prior to pumping, relax, take a few deep breaths and think of

your baby.

• Using a breastpump should be easy and comfortable. The first few

times may seem a bit awkward, but you will quickly find your best

position and pumping speed.

• Many new mothers find that in the first week or two of breastfeeding,

they may experience nipple tenderness and soreness. This is

normal and will improve as both mom and baby learn this new skill.

If soreness persists, contact a lactation consultant or healthcare

provider to assist in proper breastshield sizing or comfortable

breastfeeding techniques.

• To soothe sore nipples, you may purchase Tender Care™ products

by visiting your Medela retailer. To locate a retailer, visit

www.medela.com or call 1-800-TELL YOU.
