4. Start-up Procedure and Operation
Tubing Cleaning Instructions:
• Rumble Tuff breast pump tubing is designed to not touch the pumped
milk and does not need to be cleaned routinely.
• Keep a spare set of tubing on hand in case the set you are using gets soiled
or damaged.
• At the end of a pumping session, if your tubing has water droplets in
it, disconnect the tubing from the Collection Kits, check to see if the
Diaphragm needs to be replaced.
• If your tubing has mold in it, throw it away immediately because it is
difficult to clean properly. Replace it with a new set of tubing, and check to
see if the Diaphragm needs to be replaced.
• If the outside of your tubing is soiled, wipe it with a low-level disinfectant
such as Ethyl or Isopropyl Alcohol (70 – 90 %) is recommended.
• Do not insert any object into the Tubing.
