2. Getting to know your device
The Beurer BY 60 breast pump set allows nursing mothers to express their breast milk easily and in the
comfort of their own homes. If not enough breast milk is taken from mothers who have recently given
birth, this can lead to the painful build-up of milk, which in the worst-case scenario could cause inflam-
mation of the nipples (mastitis). This build-up of milk can be prevented through targeted expressing of
breast milk using the breast pump.
In addition, breast pumps help to alleviate cracked or sore nipples. You can use the integrated stimulation
function to draw out flat or inverted nipples, making it easier to then pump the breast milk. The breast
pump also allows you to store breast milk in the bottle, for example if you will be travelling or away from
your baby for an extended period of time.
Babies who cannot be breast-fed directly for health reasons (due to a premature birth or cleft palate) can
still be given breast milk by using the breast pump.
3. Intended use
The breast pump must be used exclusively for pumping breast milk from nursing mothers. Do not use
the breast pump on animals. The breast pump is only intended for domestic/private use, not for com-
mercial use.
This device may only be used for the purpose for which it is designed and in the manner specified in the
instructions for use. Improper use can be dangerous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting
from improper or careless use.
