Product Description - Ardo CARUM Mode D'emploi

4. Product Description

• The Carum electric breastpump is intended for use in hospitals and for hire.
• The Carum can be used for single pumping and double pumping (expressing milk from both breasts
at the same time).
• The cycles and the vacuum can be adjusted as required and independently of each other.
• The color screen provides visual orientation and the integrated stopwatch indicates the duration of
pumping.
• To mimic the natural suckling behavior of the baby, milk can be expressed in two phases using the
Carum: the stimulation mode and the actual expression mode. The stimulation mode starts the milk
flow and the subsequent expression mode enables efficient pumping of the milk.
• The Carum starts with the stimulation mode and changes independently to the expression mode after
two minutes. If required, you can switch to the expression mode early by pressing the mode button
during this two minute period.
• To stimulate the milk flow again while expressing, you can easily change back to the stimulation mode
at any time by pressing the mode button.
• The "Sensitive Programme" can be used if your nipples are sore to gently express milk with the
minimum starting vacuum and minimum cycle.
• Ardo pumpsets create a 100% hygienic barrier between the breast milk and the breastpump.
This closed system ensures that breast milk cannot end up in the tube of the pumpset or in the
breastpump itself.
• The Carum Battery contains a rechargeable battery unit.
• The Carum and the Carum Battery can be operated with mains power or with an optional car cable in
the car.
Carum Battery – the Carum with integrated rechargeable battery unit
The Carum Battery enables milk to be expressed anywhere and allows you to express milk beside the crib
of an ill or newborn baby. Being close to your baby helps with the let-down reflex.
• The running time with a fully charged battery unit is about four hours (at max. vacuum and max.
cycle). Recharging a flat battery unit takes about two hours.
• If the running time with a fully charged battery unit drops to less than one hour, the battery unit
needs to be replaced at the closest service point or the manufacturer to restore optimal operation.
• If the device is connected to the mains power, the battery unit is recharged while milk is being
expressed. The recharging time is prolonged in this case.
• If the Carum is connected to the electrical system of a vehicle via the car cable, the battery unit is not
recharged while milk is being expressed. After switching the device off, the battery unit is charged via
the electrical system of the car.
