Preparing Freemie for First Use Continued Disassemble and clean Freemie Cups prior to first use Follow the instructions below to sanitize these parts Remove cup from funnel Remove barrer and valve base from funnel Remove barrier and valve from valve base Sanitize Parts Do not steam sterilize or dishwash any Freemie components Doing so may cause the parts to warp or not fit securely and will void your warranty Parts must be thoroughly dry before use Boil These Parts Breast Funnel Boil only these parts for 10 minutes to sanitize and ensure parts fit securely in an uncovered pot Covered pots or other systems that trap steam can generate super heated steam which may damage parts Do not let parts sit on the bottom of the boiling pot Parts should float freely Carefully remove from water and be sure to wash and dry parts after boiling Valve Base Natural Shape Cup DO NOT Boil These Parts Duckbill Valve Tubing Barrier Y Connector DO NOT boil or steam these parts Hand wash only Hand wash valve and barrier using plenty of hot water and liquid dishwashing soap then rinse clean with hot water for 10 15 seconds Allow parts to cool and dry completely before use 11

Regular Cleaning After Each Use Do not steam or boil tubing barriers or valves as it will cause damage Do not put any Freemie components in dishwasher or steam sterilizer as it can cause parts to warp and leak Before each use visually inspect the individual components for cracks chips tears discoloration or deterioration In the event that damage to the device is observed please discontinue use until the parts have been replaced Dry parts completely and leave parts disassembled 1 Disassemble and wash all components that come into contact with breast milk Cup Breast Funnel Valve Valve Base Barrier 2 Hand wash parts using plenty of warm water and liquid dishwashing soap then rinse clean with hot water for 10 to 15 seconds Allow part to cool and dry completely before use 3 Treat all parts with special care Avoid abrasives and excessive heat Inspect the Closed System Barrier for rips or tears prior to each use Rips or tears will cause the Closed System Barrier to not function properly possibly causing damage to your pump If the barrier has been compromised replace prior to pumping 4 Clean and dry as soon as possible after each use 5 When not in use store parts un assembled and out of reach from infants and children 6 Do not store assembled Freemie parts in refrigerator parts may become loose or leak 12

Assembling Freemie Cups Always wash hands prior to assembling Freemie cups All parts must be completely dry correctly positioned and pressed securely together Inspect the device before each use for signs of wear or damage and replace parts if signs of wear are noted Step 1 Step 2 Place Barrier onto funnel mounting ridge and against cone surface Align Valve Base with Barrier and Funnel and push together Step 3 Step 4 Press Breast Funnel and Valve Base firmly together Place Valve onto Valve Base Step 5 Cup arrow Note Arrow on cup is difficult to see but can be felt above Freemie logo Locate arrow with your finger and align it to tubing port to assemble Align Cup arrow with Funnel tubing port seat cup rim into outer ring of funnel and snap together You should feel a crisp snap and then assembly is secure Align cup arrow with Funnel tubing port circular Note Do not align arrow with pour spout egg shaped 13

Connecting to Your Freemie Liberty Independence Pump Single Pumping Note For all tubing connections press in firmly until you get a secure connection Close unused tubing port with attached plug press all the way in Double Pumping AVOID SETUP FRUSTRATION BEFORE PLACING THE FREEMIE CUPS IN YOUR BRA After the cups are assembled and connected to the pump turn on pump and observe the tongue shaped barrier inside each cup If all parts are assembled securely and correctly you will be able to observe movement or compression in the tongue shaped barrier when the pump is running At the highest suction settings the barrier will collapse and curl with each cycle similar to the movement of your baby s tongue while sucking If there is no movement in one or both cups re check the assembly and all tubing connections 14

Attaching and Removing Your Clothing Clip To Attach Slide clip into slot in bottom of pump and snap into place Clip will click into place when secure and is designed to wiggle a little Use clothing clip to attach pump to clothing pocket belt purse etc NOTE Clip is only intended for relatively stable use THIS IS NOT A SPORTS CLIP Be careful you don t drop your pump To Remove 1 With gentle pressure just below ribs slide clip down towards pump to disengage latch 2 Press clip slowly towards the base of the pump and carefully begin to slide upward to disengage from catch 3 Slide clip away from pump out of slot 15

Positioning Within Your Bra Finding The Ideal Bra Fit For You When getting started with your new Freemie hands free pump be aware that bra fit is critical to the proper use of this device because your bra must now do the job that your hands would be required to do with a traditional pump 1 Before choosing a bra pump with your new Freemie Mobile pump system using your hands to hold the Cups in place Consider how much pressure you normally apply against your breasts to pump and observe the optimal position and orientation of the cups on each of your breasts Note most women are not perfectly symmetrical and improper positioning or pressure on one or both breasts may result in low output This may happen with traditional or hands free pumping systems if you do not spend the necessary time to figure out how to make the pump work well and effectively for you on each of your breasts This needed pressure may be different when your breasts are engorged versus when they are empty To achieve the same pressure and sensation with the Freemie Cups in your bra it may be necessary to adjust your bra or try different bras to get the best fit for you A sports bra works well for many women 2 Be sure your bra keeps the Freemie cups in an upright position and does not allow the device to slip around sag downward or tilt off to the side during use as a loss of suction may occur 3 Place Freemie inside your bra with the Breast Funnel opening centered over the nipple 4 Make sure you achieve a good seal between Freemie s funnels and your skin Correct Nipple Position Funnel Sizing Ensure nipple is centered in the Breast Funnel and not bent or pinched off If the tip of the nipple hurts while expressing check that the nipple is in the center of the funnel Correct Position 16 Incorrect Position

Positioning Within Your Bra Continued Check Breast Funnel Fit Turn on the pump and check the following points Is the nipple rubbing or sticking against the side Does the base of the nipple blanche during the expression session Does it feel painful If the answer is yes to any of the above a different size funnel may be needed With properly fitted breast funnels the nipple moves in and out of the funnel freely The areolar tissue should move only a little and there should be no pain See our sizing guides at www freemie com Note you may need a different size funnel for each breast for an optimal pumping experience You need a different size if the provided funnels are too big or too small Too Small Too Large Correct Size Funnel is too small for the nipple to move freely in and out of funnel causing rubbing or chafing Funnel is too big allowing too much breast and areolar tissue to be drawn into funnel Funnel is correct size Additionally enough pressure needs to be applied to create a good seal without compressing or obstructing milk ducts Bra fit is critical to allow comfortable and effective pumping Internal Diameter is measured across the opening 25mm 28mm DAO Health cannot help you determine your correct funnel size by email or phone If you have questions about how to find the right breast funnel size for you please consult with your lactation professional 17

Positioning Within Your Bra Continued Tubing Port Should Be In The 12 O Clock Position When connected to a pump tubing port and pour spout must be in the 12 o clock position 12 Correct When filling with milk keep in the upright position Tubing in 12 o clock position Incorrect Placement at any other position can cause milk to flow out of cups while you are pumping Milk leaking from cups 18

Before Pumping With Freemie Breast Pump System Pump with Freemie Cups in an upright position such as sitting or standing You may pump in any of these positions The position of the cups relative to the horizon is important as your milk needs to flow downhill in the funnel Optimal Okay May cause milk to spill May cause milk to spill Incorrect Note Depending on the shape and orientation of your breasts you may be able to comfortably pump in a wide variety of positions 19

8 As with any new pump expect a period of adjustment to the hands free and fully concealed pumping experience After a few days using your new mobile Freemie pump review the instructions for bra and funnel fit to evaluate any needed adjustments Consider what items in your wardrobe work well and make you comfortable while pumping You may also find that other people are more comfortable in your presence while you are pumping with your clothes on when compared to alternatives Each Freemie Cup holds 8 ounces 240 mL of breast milk NOTE When the Freemie Cups are full turn off pump and pull tubing from Freemie Cups while still wearing Freemie Cups in your bra See below When You Are Done Pumping If you produce more than 8 ounces 240 mL per breast stop pumping when the Freemie Cups are full and empty each cup If you have a second Freemie Collection Set that is compatible with Freemie s mobile pump system switch out full Freemie Cups with empty Freemie Cups to minimize pumping interruptions Stop the pump To stop the pump shut it off or break the suction by inserting your fingers between the funnels and your breasts if necessary If you experience pain in your breast or nipple even if you think the pump is not the source of the pain consult your health care or lactation specialist Disconnecting and Transferring Milk When you are done pumping 1 Turn off pump 2 Leave Freemie in your bra and gently pull the tubing from the device 3 Carefully remove cups from your bra 4 Freemie cups may be set flat on a table until ready to transfer to a storage container 23

Pouring Milk into a Container Practice with water first to achieve successful transfers without spilling it s easy Handle a full Freemie cup with care Milk that has not passed through the valve and into the cup can spill out of the Breast Funnel Pour Spout Use pour spout for transferring milk into storage containers Fully disassemble and clean immediately after transferring milk to get ready for next use Refer to page 12 Proper Storage of Breast Milk How long can I store breast milk Location Temperature Duration Comments Countertop table Room temperature 6 8 hours up to 77 F or 25 C Insulated cooler bag 5 39 F or 15 4 C 24 hours Keep ice packs in contact with milk containers at all times limit opening cooler bag Refrigerator 39 F or 4 C 5 days Store milk in the back of the main body of the refrigerator Containers should be cover and kept as cool as possible covering the container with a cool towel may keep milk cooler Freezer Freezer compartment 5 F or 15 C of a refrigerator Freezer compartment 0 F or 18 C of a refrigerator with separate doors Chest or upright deep 4 F or 20 C freezer 2 weeks Store milk toward the back of the freezer where temperature is most 3 6 months constant Milk stored for longer durations in the ranges listed is safe but some of the lipids in the 6 12 months milk undergo degradation resulting in lower quality Source Proper Handling and Storage of Human Milk cdc gov 24

How do I thaw and use stored breast milk Always make sure to check the date on the milk s container before using Do not use undated milk or milk that has been stored too long Thaw frozen milk in the refrigerator or under cool running water Heat the milk under warm running water and gently swirl the container to mix the milk If warm water is not available heat a pan of water on the stove Once the water is warm not boiling remove the pan from the stove and place the milk container in the pan Never warm the milk container directly on the stove Never microwave breast milk because microwaves can cause dangerous hot spots that could burn you or a baby Always test the temperature of the milk on the inside of your wrist before feeding it to a baby The milk should feel warm not hot After thawing milk should be stored in the refrigerator for no more than 24 hours Never refreeze thawed milk Throw away previously frozen milk that is not used within 24 hours Troubleshooting Tips Breasts Not Emptying Review Positioning Within Your Bra Pages 16 18 Always center Breast Funnel over nipple If the Breast Funnel is off the center of the nipple you may impede milk release experience loss of suction or prevent the complete emptying of the breast Try adjusting the position of Freemie Comfortably position your body to help create the best seal between Freemie and your skin Experiment with your body position by sitting up straighter leaning forward a little or pulling your shoulders back The Breast Funnels come in the standard 25mm and 28mm Visit www Freemie com for the latest in sizing options and accessories Note If you require a funnel diameter or depth that we do not currently offer then unfortunately we do not recommend the Freemie system as your full time pump If problems emptying your breasts persist consult your lactation professional 25

Troubleshooting Tips Continued Loss of Suction Review Assembling Freemie Cups Pages 13 14 Make sure pump is turned on motor is running and suction level is turned up to your regular setting Make sure that parts are correctly assembled and fit together as snugly as possible and that connection to the pump is secure see pages 12 and 13 If the fit between the valve base and funnel is loose try replacing the valve base with a new valve base If suction is diminished try replacing the duckbill valve with a new duckbill valve Make sure tubing is not kinked or pinched Make sure tubing is pushed securely into its port on the breast funnel see page 14 Make sure Breast Funnel is securely pressed against breast creating a seal around nipple and is properly seated in bra Check that no bra material or tubing is between the device and your skin The device should not be tilting upward downward or to the side see pages 18 and 19 Make sure nipple is not bent or pinched inside the Breast Funnel see page 16 Try a tighter fitting bra to ensure that the bra is able to support and maintain an adequate seal and hold Freemie in an upright position Consider trying a sports bra see page 16 When single pumping be sure Y connector plug is on securely inserted into open port see page 14 Ensure barrier is properly assembled If pump lights are on but no vibration is detected from pump even at highest suction settings contact customer service Milk in Tubing Ensure that all parts are firmly assembled and that barrier is not damaged 26
