Carum, Ardo Bellis and Calypso
To safeguard the hygiene of the Ardo breastpumps Ardo Bellis, Carum and
Calypso, Ardo medical AG recommends that the surface of the breastpumps and
the Carum packaging box be reprocessed immediately after return. The pump
surface is reprocessed using a non-phenol disinfectant.
Abrasive agents should not be used. If pumpsets or other accessories have been
returned, they must be disposed of because they are intended for personal use.
Important notes
Every time the device is cleaned, it must be switched off, and the power cable
must be disconnected from the power supply. Failure to do so may result in an
electric shock!
If the pump is contaminated by overflow or another cause, the contaminated
parts must be disposed of by the user according to local guidelines.
Do not use cleaners or disinfectants based on phenol! Failure to follow this
instruction may destroy the plastic materials due to the formation of fine
cracks.
Reprocessing
The device must be cleaned and disinfected each time before it is supplied to
a customer. This also applies for the first use after delivery because none of
the Ardo breastpumps are supplied disinfected.
Please also comply with the legal provisions and hygiene regulations that
apply in your country.
Work station
Unpack and reprocess the Ardo breastpumps at a work station that can be disinfected by wiping down. Keep processed Ardo breastpumps in a separate location to prevent contact with pumps that have not been cleaned and disinfected.
Preparation
- Prepare a ready-to-use disinfectant that is compatible with the material (see below). Read the product information on the product and check the expiry date before use.
- For your own protection, we recommend that you wear gloves. Please note the safety data sheet for the disinfectant used.
- Open the packaging and take out the Ardo breastpump. Dispose of the accessories according to country-specific guidelines.
Operation

- Before disinfecting the breastpump, remove any visible soiling from the surface of the Ardo breastpump and its power cord using a damp cloth and a commercially available mild detergent.
- Do not allow cleaning fluid to penetrate the connection openings for the pumpset or the electrical connections.
- Do not clean the pump under running water or in a water bath.
- After cleaning, dry the surfaces with a clean, dry cloth.
- Reprocess the surface of the breastpump using a disinfectant that is compatible with the materials (see below). Allow the disinfectant to take effect as described in the manufacturer’s instructions.
