Getting ready

To get the most from your pump, it’s really important to set it up properly. This guide will show you how to assemble your pump and how to customize it to fi t your body

Charging

Plug in the Hub for fi ve minutes to wake it up before fi rst use. The Hub will not turn on while it is charging. It takes approximately two hours to fully charge the Hub, although this can vary depending on your charging set up.
A full charge lasts approximately fi ve 30 minute sessions. Only use the Charging Cable provided in the box.

Charge immediately after fi nishing your pumping session if low battery is indicated.

Tip: Press the Mode button when the Hub is off ; the Intensity Lights will show how much battery is left.

Tip: Close the Charging Port before use to ensure the Hub is as discreet as possible.

Taking Elvie Stride apart

1. Remove the Cap. The Hub, Tubes and Cap must be placed on a dry surface and kept away from water
   

2. Using the Finger Grips, pull the Cup Front away from the Breast Shield

3. Pull the Valve out of the Breast Shield. Then remove the Diaphragm.
   

Cleaning

Before fi rst use
Elvie Stride is not provided sterile. It must be cleaned and sanitized before fi rst use. Always disassemble the components before cleaning or sanitizing. For additional cleaning guidelines see the Center for Disease Control website – https://www.cdc.gov/healthywater/hygiene/healthychildcare/infantfeeding/breastpump.html

1. Before fi rst use, remove the Cup Seal by peeling it out of the groove on the side. During normal cleaning this Cup Seal can stay in place
2. To replace, stretch the Cup Seal over the outer rim of the Cup Front. Make sure it goes on with the ridges facing outwards. Press along the groove, checking that it is snugly in place all the way around

Non-washable components

The Hub, Cap, Tubes, Tube Splitter, Cover and Clip are non-washable components and should be kept dry. They must not be microwaved. They can be wiped clean with a damp cloth, but should not be submerged in water. If the tubes are moldy, discard and replace immediately.

Washable components

Cleaning washable components that come into contact with milk, as soon as possible after pumping, prevents the buildup of dry milk residue. Residue can cause the growth of bacteria that may be harmful to you and your baby.

Cleaning (before fi rst use and after every use)

1. Rinse in cold, clear water. Do not place the parts directly in the kitchen sink for rinsing and washing.
   Use a dedicated wash basin and brush for infant feeding

2. Wash in warm water using mild dish washing soap

3. Rinse with cold, clear water for 10 to 15 seconds
   OR
   Place on the top shelf of the dishwasher

Sanitizing (before first use and subsequently once daily)

1. Sanitize parts in boiling water for fi ve minutes
   OR
   Suitable for microwave, steam or cold water sanitization.
   We do not recommend microwave or steam sanitizing for more than five minutes.*

*Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions

Drying
Place parts on a clean surface and air dry completely before assembly.

Breast Shield sizing

Elvie Stride comes with two (24 mm) Breast Shields.
If needed (21 mm ) or (28 mm) Breast Shields are available to purchase separately.
The Breast Shield creates a seal between your nipple and the pump, and it is therefore important it fi ts well.

To check your size:

1. Put the Breast Shield on with the sizing symbol facing upwards, and place your nipple in the center of the fi t lines
2. The fit lines should align with the outside of your nipple
3. To comfortably pump on both sides, repeat this process for both nipples to ensure you have the correct Breast Shield size for each nipple

Assembling Elvie Stride

Wash hands thoroughly before you begin. Once the parts have been cleaned and sanitized, make sure they are dry and not moldy before putting them together. Pay extra attention to the Diaphragm and ensure it is completely dry.

1. Attach the Cover and Clip. Slide the Hub into the Cover, ensuring the hole for the Hub Connector is aligned with the hole on the Cover. Push the short end of the Clip through the slot, and pull through
   

2. Push the Hub Connector fi rmly into the Hub, ensuring that it is fully inserted

3. Push the Valve and Diaphragm onto the Breast Shield

4. Use your fingers to work the Diaphragm rim over the Breast Shield lip. Take a moment to check the Diaphragm is sitting flush and is on securely
   

5. Push the Breast Shield and the Cup Front together using the markings as a guide. Ensure that there is a good seal all the way around. Check that there are no gaps and that the Cup Seal is fully covered by the frosted lip of the Breast Shield
   

6. Check that the Diaphragm is completely dry because moisture can be sucked into the Hub. This will aff ect performance. Push the Cap into the Cup Front
   Tip: Take the Cup Front off and check that the Diaphragm is on correctly if:

   • You can’t get the Cup to push together fully
   • You can see the Cup Seal above the frosted lip

7. Rotate the Cap when it’s in place for the most discreet fit
   

8. Check your nipple alignment through the open Pour Hole. Close the Pour Hole using the Stopper
   

9. Attach the Hub to your clothing using the clip
   

Single-side pumping

To pump on one side, you only need one Short Tube that connects to one Cup. Remove the unused Short Tube from the Tube Splitter.
Seal the opening with the Tube Splitter Stopper to ensure consistent suction on the one Cup in use.

Tip: Make sure the Tubes are not kinked or pinched fl at

Using Elvie Stride

To help you to get the best performance from your pump, this section will guide you through a pumping session.

Turning on Elvie Stride

Once fully assembled, press Power to turn the Hub on.
The Intensity Lights will begin to fl ash and will show the intensity setting that Stimulation mode will start on.
You can adjust the intensity setting before you start your session.

Aligning your nipple

We’re all different. No two nipples point in the same direction. Correct nipple alignment in the Breast Shield is the key to comfortable and efficient pumping. Align the Breast Shield with the direction of your nipples when you are putting it on.

To avoid discomfort, your nipple must be positioned correctly in the Nipple Tunnel before pumping.

1. Use the markings on the Breast Shield to help align your nipple when putting the Cup on
   

2. Bend forwards and hold your breast from underneath.
   Bring the Cup to your breast, paying attention to the direction of your nipple. You can use the markings on the Breast Shield to help align your nipple
   

3. Once the Cup is on, you can check your alignment by removing the Stopper and adjusting so that your nipple sits in the middle of the Nipple Tunnel. Replace the Stopper before use

Finding the right in-bra fit

Elvie Stride is designed to be worn with your standard nursing bra. You can use it in either a sitting or standing position. Elvie Stride needs to be firmly pressed against your breast. There should be no gaps between the Cups and your breasts.

Every bra has a different level of support, so make sure to get the pressure and fit right before each session. This is important because it can have an impact on milk volumes.

Starting your session

Once the Hub is turned on and the Cups are positioned in your bra, press Play/Pause to start pumping. If you need to pause pumping for any reason, press Play/Pause again.

Modes and intensity settings

Modes

Elvie Stride has two modes: Stimulation and Expression.
Elvie Stride will always start in Stimulation mode.
This is a faster pumping rhythm to stimulate milk let-down.
Elvie Stride will automatically switch to Expression mode after approximately two minutes. You can also change modes in the app or on the Hub using the Mode button.
When the Mode Light is illuminated, the pump is in Expression mode. This is a slower, stronger pumping rhythm for efficient milk expression.

Intensity settings

Elvie Stride has ten intensity settings in Stimulation mode and ten intensity settings in Expression mode. This means you can adjust the pump to fi nd a setting that feels comfortable and works effi ciently in both Stimulation and Expression modes. Once you can feel the suction on your nipples, use and to adjust the intensity to fi nd your preferred setting in both modes. The Intensity Lights will illuminate to show your chosen setting.

You can save the intensity settings that you would like your pump to start in for both Stimulation and Expression mode by using the Personalize feature in the Pump with Elvie app. The app is free to download in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Tip: A higher intensity setting does not always mean a higher volume of milk. Putting your nipple under excess stress or pumping if you are in pain can reduce milk production.

Tip: Make sure the Tubes are not kinked or pinched flat.

Automatic functions

• The Hub will automatically switch from Stimulation mode to Expression mode after two minutes
• When the Hub is pumping, it will automatically pause after 40 minutes. It is recommended that you leave Elvie Stride for 60 minutes before using it again
• When the Hub is paused, it will automatically turn off if a button has not been pressed for fi ve minutes
• The Hub will automatically turn off if the battery is empty
• The Hub will automatically turn off if a technical error occurs

Ending your session

1. While leaning forward, press Play/Pause to stop pumping. Turn off the pump by pressing and holding Power
2. Unclip your bra and use your fi nger to break the seal around your nipple to avoid nipple damage
3. Remove the entire Cup from your bra
4. Remove the Cap from the Cup
5. The Cup can be laid fl at on a dry surface with the Nipple Tunnel facing up before decanting if required
6. Unplug and rotate the Stopper to decant your milk
7. Pour milk out as shown below, through the side of the Pour Hole
8. Refer to the Cleaning section of this booklet for cleaning and sanitizing instructions
   
   Tip: Leaning forward when you pause or stop your session helps the milk drain from the Nipple Tunnel into the Cup.

Storing your milk

• Do not store your milk in the Cup. Pour your milk into a sealed container of your choice. Before storage, label with date and time, and immediately place in a fridge, freezer, or cooler bag with ice packs
• While you are preparing to pour your milk the Cup can be laid fl at on a dry surface with the Nipple Tunnel pointing up
• For information on storing your breast milk, refer to
  https://www.cdc.gov/breastfeeding/recommendations/handling_breastmilk.htm

How to store Elvie Stride

Short-term storage

• Recharge immediately after finishing your pumping session if the Battery Light is on
• Between sessions, please store your Elvie Stride out of direct sunlight and ensure the washable parts are clean and dry. Keep out of reach of children

Tip: It’s important that the components are kept dry in storage because mold may develop if moisture is present.

Long-term storage

• The washable parts will require cleaning and drying before long-term storage and should be stored away from direct sunlight to avoid discoloration

Electromagnetic environment guidance: Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the breast pump, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommend separation distance:
d = 1,2√P
d = 1,2√P 80 MHz – 800 MHz
d = 2,3√P 800 MHz – 2.7 GHz Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in metres (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range. Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol.

Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected

1. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the breast pump is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the breast pump should be observed to verify normal operation.
   If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the breast pump.

2. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 10 V/m.
