Using Your Motif TwistUpdated 5 days ago



Preparing to Pump

  1. Wash your hands with soap and warm water.
  2. Check each component part for wear or damage before use and replace parts as necessary.
  3. Make sure all components which have come into contact with breast milk are clean and dry.
  4. Assemble your pump and components. Use a twisting motion to connect and disassemble component parts. 
  5. Ensure tubing is tightly connected to prevent air leakage.
  6. Massage the breast for about five minutes with a warm towel to promote expression.


Pumping with the Motif Twist

  1. Place the breast shield on your breast so that your nipple is centered within it. 
  2. Twist the top of the pump to begin pumping. 
  3. To achieve let down, begin pumping with the dial set between “Min” and the midpoint of the dial. This is massage mode. 
  4. Once let down is achieved, increase suction by turning the dial to any point between midpoint and “Max”. This allows you to transition to expression mode. 
  5. The average pumping session lasts 15-30 minutes.
    1. Note: The Twist has a 30 minute LED countdown timer.
  6. After you are finished pumping, turn off the pump. 
  7. Slide a finger between your breast and the breast shield to separate them. 
  8. Refrigerate or chill breast milk immediately after expression.
