How to Care for Your Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump

Sanitize Right out of the Packaging

• Place all the pieces of your pump kit that come into contact with your milk in a pot of warm water on your stove top
• Boil for 20 minutes before using the pump for the first time.   NOTE:  Unless your doctor has told you otherwise, you only need to sanitize prior to your 1^st use

Daily Maintenance Pump Kits – with the Purely Yours pump, it’s unnecessary to boil or wipe your pump pieces with disinfecting wipes regularly.  The following maintenance is recommended after each use:

• Promptly after pumping, rinse the pieces that come in contact with your milk with cool water
• Wash them in warm, soapy water (using mild dishwashing soap)
• Rinse each piece with clear, warm water for 10-15 seconds
• Air dry each piece completely on a clean towel or drying rack

Another option is to clean the pump parts in the dishwasher.   NOTE:  You may want to purchase additional pump kits and wash them all once at the end of the day to avoid washing your parts every time you pump Pump Motor/Tubing or Carry Bag – you can wipe these items down with a clean, damp cloth in the event of milk drips or everyday dust No Maintenance Tubing Moisture in tubing can contaminate expressed milk with bacteria, mold and viruses. Fortunately, the Ameda Purely Yours breast pump has Proven Airlock Protection™.  While pumping, Ameda’s diaphragm keeps the air from the pump from coming in contact with your milk.  There is no need to go through the difficult process to clean the narrow tubing and your milk stays “purely yours.”  Ameda has the world’s only breast pump with a proven protective barrier.
