Precious Breastmilk Storage Bottles when you buy a Spectra 3 pump!
Product
Explanation
Spectra 3 is almost one third the size of the Spectra 2 (no more bulky pumps to
lug around) which makes it ideal for home AND office use. The advantages are:
very quiet, long life span, rhythmic suction (mimics baby's sucking rhythm -
very comfortable to use), adjustable suction, simple to use, dual pumping
option. Accessories (breast shield, tubing) are separable so it's easy to wash
and sterilize. Its light weight and compact design make it extremely portable
and good to use in a small space. It can easily be converted into a double
pump (you only need to get an extra breast shield and tubing which
cost RM70.00-please click
here for Spectra Breast shield product page ).
This set contains:
- Pump motor/body
- 1 standard size bottle with teat and bottle cap
- 1 conversion kit for wide neck bottles
- 1 Breast shield set and tubing only.
If you've tried the spectra 2, you will
love this pump. I trust I don't need to say any further! (Trying is believing).
As a value add, we have included
6 breast milk storage
bottles together with the pump.

â–£ How it
works

Turn the kit off after using
For double
pumping, remove the small grey cap and connect an extra
tubing and breast shield to the pump motor. For Medela pump users, you
may use your existing Medela breast shield and only need to get an extra
Spectra tubing which costs RM15 only.
(Important:
When pumping, make sure that there is no backflow (milk getting into
tubing). To avoid this, please make sure that the breast shield is not
tilted, the tubing must be dry AND the blue valve head is fixed on
properly.)
â–£ How to
clean
Take all the parts of breast shield apart and boil them for 2~3 minutes
except the air tube. Do not use a microwave oven.
Caution: Do not use a microwave
oven.

â–£ How to feed
the frozen milk
- Put it in the refrigerator for one
night before you feed it. It normally takes 12 hours to defrost it
in the refrigerator.
- Thaw and/or heat under warm, running
water.
- Shake it well when it is separated
into cream and milk layer.
- Let your baby finish the bottle at a
feeding if possible, and do not store it again for another feeding.
- IMPORTANT: Don't store it again if
you thaw it.
â–£ Trouble
shooting
1. Check if the plug is in.
2. Check if every pump part is assembled correctly.
3. Check if the tubing is not twisted.
4. Check if the vacuum regulator valve of the motor part, membrane and
the tubing is connected properly.
5. Check if there is space between the valve head and membrane. (Remove
foreign substances, if any, between them)
â–£ PERSONAL
NOTE BY MLO:
Pros:
This pump is value for money. The best part is it has double pumping
option. It is very quiet (you can pump without the person in the next
cubicle hearing it!-yes, this has been tested!). It is convenient to
bring along since it is not bulky. If you are a Medela user, you can use
your existing pump parts as it is compatible. It also comes with a
conversion kit which allows you to use wide neck bottles (ie. Avent).
Technical support will be provided should there be any problems (6
months warranty). It now has a special cooler carrier bag which is
designed to fit the Spectra 3 pump, complete with bottles and ice packs
