The Lillo Pumping Support Bra includes the following items in addition to the instruction manual:

How to Use

【Setting up the Cushions and Controller】

① Check the correct orientation of the cushions and controller.
Set the controller so that the buttons are facing up. Ensure that the ventilation holes of the controller and the snaps of the cushions are facing outwards, away from your body.
② Open the side zipper of the bra and unfasten the snaps of the bra pockets.
③ Insert the controller into the center pocket. (Insert it so that the "L" button is on the left side when wearing the bra.)
④ Insert one side of the cushion into the bra.
*If necessary, you can adjust the position through the side zipper after putting on the bra.
⑤ Close the zipper and insert the other cushion in the same way.
⑥ Close the two snaps at the top of the bra.

【Setting up the Breast Pump Flanges】
*The breast pump bottles can be attached at this stage or after wearing the bra.
*The photo shows an older model, so the color and other details may differ from the current product.

① Insert the breast pump flange through the hole in the front of the bra.
*Ensure that the flange is in direct contact with your skin, and the bra with the cushion is positioned over it.

【Wearing the Bra】

① Put your arms through the straps just like a regular bra.
② Fasten the back buckle until you hear a click.
③ Adjust the underbust strap. Tighten it firmly for more effective use. (e.g., to the extent that two fingers cannot easily fit between your ribs below your chest and the bra.)
④ Adjust the shoulder straps so that the bra fits snugly against your body.
⑤ Check the comfort of the bra and ensure that the flanges are in close contact with your skin.

・How to adjust the cup size of the cushion
If the cushion size doesn't fit, remove the cushion and adjust its size in three stages using the white snaps on the cushion.

【Operating the Cushions】
① Connect the breast pump bottle to the flange set in the bra.
② Press and hold the power button on the controller for 1 second to turn it on.
③ When turned on, it will operate in low mode. You can switch to low with the L button and high with the H button.
*If the breast pump is attached to the bra, it does not matter whether you operate the breast pump before or after turning on this product.
④ Turn off the power after pumping. It does not matter whether you turn off the breast pump before or after turning off the power to this product.

How to Charge

① If charging is needed, the power button in the center of the controller will flash red.

② You can charge by plugging the included USB charging cable into the controller.
③ The power button will glow orange while charging, and turn green when fully charged.

Care Instructions

【Washing the Bra】
Wash the bra whenever you like. Also, if breast milk spills or splatters and gets dirty, wash it each time.
・Before washing the bra, always remove the controller and cushions.
・You can use a washing machine (use cold water up to ~35°C, and the delicate cycle of the washing machine), but for longer use, hand washing the bra is recommended.
・When using a washing machine, please use a laundry net whenever possible to protect the straps.
・After washing, lay flat or hang to dry until the bra is completely dry.
・Do not use bleach, tumble dryer, or iron.
・Do not dry clean.

●Bra Material:
Main body: 50% cotton, 40% polyester, 10% polyurethane
Lining: 95% polyester, 5% polyurethane

【Cleaning the Controller and Cushions】
・Gently wipe with a well-wrung clean cloth or an alcohol-free wet wipe.
・Do not wash with soap or running water.
・We recommend cleaning whenever breast milk gets on it, and at least once a week.
