Cleaning
All parts of the Wearable (except the Breast Pump Device) can be washed using undiluted baby bottle detergent with a bottle brush after disassembly.
Sterilisation
All parts of the Wearable (except the Breast Pump Device) are also safe to sterilise by boiling, steaming, using a UV steriliser, or sterilisation tablets.
Kindly avoid washing or immersing the Breast Pump Device in water, and do not place it in the fridge. If Breast Pump Device gets in contact with milk, simply wipe it gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
Ensure all parts are fully dry before reassembling for your next session. This helps maintain hygiene and keeps your pump in optimal condition.
