Preparing to Pump
When using the pump for the first time, your ISIS iQ will have retained factory settings
stored in the memory as a result of quality control testing. If the blue One-Touch
Memory Control is pressed prior to squeezing the control handle upon first use the
pump will operate at these settings, which may or may not be comfortable for you.
We recommend that prior to engaging the automatic mode, you
establish a comfortable rhythm manually, then press the blue
One-Touch Memory Control to continue your preferred rhythm.
If you find that you are not expressing a lot of milk the
first few times you pump, don't be discouraged. Learning
to express milk, like breastfeeding, takes practice.
Here are some tips that might make pumping easier:
1. Choose a time when you're not rushed and won't
be interrupted.
2. Choose a comfortable chair with a table nearby,
so you can set the ISIS iQ motor within reach.
3. Look at a photograph of your baby to help
encourage let-down.
4. Place a warm cloth on your breasts for a few minutes before you start
pumping. This encourages milk flow and can soothe painful breasts.
5. Warmth and relaxation can encourage milk flow. Try expressing after
a bath or shower.
6. Try expressing from one breast while your baby is feeding on the
other, or continue expressing just after a feed.
7. Reposition the pump on your breasts from time to time. This can
stimulate your milk ducts.

another time of day. If the process becomes painful, stop and consult your
lactation consultant or breastfeeding advisor.
How much milk can you expect?
It has been shown that double pumping boosts prolactin levels and stimulates
milk production so, if you can, use your ISIS iQ DUO regularly as a double pump.
On average you will need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60-120 mls or
2-4 ounces of milk. However, this is just a guide and varies from woman
to woman. If you find that you regularly express more than 4 ounces of milk
per session, attach a 9 oz/260 ml AVENT reusable base to the pump body.
