Storing Breastmilk in the Pump In Style Original Bag:
•
Pump In Style Original requires one contoured
cooling element
(#8117010—included)
to four containers of breastmilk in the included
DayCarrier
™
bag.
As soon as breast pumping is finished, place the milk container or bag
in the compartment with the cooling elements. If the cooling element(s)
are frozen solid, they will safely cool your breastmilk for up to 12 hours.
When you return home transfer the containers to the refrigerator or
freezer.
Defrosting
•
Thaw milk overnight in the refrigerator, or hold the bottle under warm
running water to quickly thaw. You can also place the sealed container
in a bowl of warm water for 20 minutes to bring it to body temperature.
•
Thawed milk is safe in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Do not refreeze.
Caution:
•
Do not thaw frozen breastmilk in a microwave or in a pan of boiling
water.
•
Never microwave breastmilk. Microwaving can cause severe burns to
baby's mouth from hot spots that develop in the milk during microwav-
ing. Microwaving can also change the composition of breastmilk.
•
If adding expressed breastmilk to container of already frozen breast-
milk, make sure to add a lesser amount than the already frozen
amount.

Troubleshooting
If There Is Low or No Suction
1. Make sure all connections of the kit and breastpump are secure.
2. Make sure the port plug is placed into the unused single pumping
port or onto the post.
3. Make sure white membrane is laying flat against the yellow valve
head. Check that the yellow valve head is clean and not damaged.
Refer to the assembly instructions.
4. Make sure the diaphragm cap or faceplate on the front of the
breastpump fits evenly and securely.
5. Make sure the ends of the tubings are fitted securely into the backs
of the breastshields and into the ports on the diaphragm cap or
faceplate.
Other concerns
6. Take care not to kink tubing(s). If milk is seen backing up into tubing,
check that tubing is not kinked or pinched.
7. If you experience discomfort while pumping contact a breastfeed-
ing specialist. You may be more comfortable with a different size
PersonalFit
™
or a SoftFit
™
Breastshield. Call 1-800-TELL-YOU to
