Instructions: Lactina Select™ Breastpump

Important: Breastpump kits are personal care items and should not be used by others unless sterilized between uses.

Assembly Instructions
Some pre-assembly may already be completed.

1. Slip rubber seal onto piston until it snaps into place. The larger side faces the handle. To ensure proper seal, hold rubber seal firmly and twist piston.

2. Slide vacuum regulator ring onto cylinder, if not already done. Push handle end of piston into cylinder.

3. Screw cylinder tightly into pump connector until snug.

4. Attach pump connector to Lactina, and rotate until tab is secure.

5. Push piston into pumping arm, and rotate until it fits snug in clamp.

6. If using the 1-piece breastshield, go to step #8. Insert the small end of the PersonalFit breastshield into the small end of the Connector. (Prior to cleaning, separate these two pieces.)

7. Snap white membranes onto yellow valves until membranes lie completely flat.

8. Push assembled valves & membranes onto connectors/breastshields.

9. Screw containers onto connectors/breastshields.

10. Insert clear ends of tubing into openings in connectors/breastshields.

11. Insert other ends of tubing into ports on pump connector.

12. To single pump:
If single pumping: insert plug into unused port.

13. Set vacuum regulator ring to “MIN.” Adjust for comfort once pumping begins.

14. Center breastshields over your nipples and start pumping.

In Case of Overflow: If either of the milk collection containers overflow and breast milk enters the tubings or cylinder assembly: 1) Turn off the Lactina Breastpump; 2) Disassemble the entire assembly; 3) Wash all parts, including tubings and cylinder/piston assembly, with warm soapy water; 4) Rinse and dry.

(Note: If parts are not washed immediately, boil before using them again.)

Power Supply

 

 

The Lactina can be plugged into a standard electric 110V outlet.

The Lactina can be operated from the cigarette lighter of a motor vehicle by using the Vehicle Lighter Adapter, a separate accessory. With an optional PowerPak(#67032) the Lactina will run on battery power, when plugged into your vehicle lighter socket, or with a standard 110V outlet. The PowerPak provides one hour of pumping time and needs to be fully recharged overnight after every one hour of use. Refer to the card provided with the PowerPak for charging instructions.

If you experience any problems with the Lactina Breastpump or lose electric power, you have all the parts necessary to continue pumping manually. Simply remove the cylinder/piston assembly from the Lactina and the pump connector. Remove the tubing from the back of the breastshield and tightly screw the cylinder/piston assembly into the back of the breastshield. The kit now works as a manual breastpump.
