4 Use and Care

Connecting the appliance

Attention: Prior to use, check that the mains voltage matches the specifications on

the nameplate at the bottom of the appliance.

1. Put up the appliance on a dry, solid, even and heat−resistant

surface out of the reach of children.

2. Always fill in water before turning on the appliance.

3. Attach the bottle warmer to a mains outlet and turn the tem-

perature control to the appropriate point on the dial (1 to

7)/(warm to hot).

Warming baby bottles

1. Put the bottle on the insert and place the insert in the contai-

ner.

2. Fill the container with water up to bottle content level but no

higher than 10 mm below the top edge of the container.

3. The container must not overflow and the water must not rise

above the edge of the bottle.

4. Heating times depend on the amount, initial temperature

and consistency of the food being warmed up. Adjust the

temperature control (1 to 7)/(warm to hot) to find the perfect

setting.

5. Do not heat the baby food until you need it. Do not keep food

warm for more than 1 hour because its hygienic quality may

degrade otherwise.

6. Before feeding your child, shake the bottle and check the

temperature of the food (e.g. by letting some of the liquid

drop on the back of your hand).

Heating and keeping warm jars / tins

1. Remove the lid from the jar or tin before heating the baby

food in it.

2. Put the jar / tin with mash or similar on the insert and place

the insert in the container.

3. Fill the container with water up to jar / tin content level but no

higher than 10 mm below the top edge of the container.

4. Heating times depend on the amount, initial temperature and consistency of the food

being warmed up. Adjust the temperature control (1 to 7)/(warm to hot) to find the per-

fect setting each time.

5. Occasionally stir the food being warmed up.

6. Do not heat the baby food until you need it. Do not keep food warm for more than 1

hour because its hygienic quality may degrade otherwise.

7. Before feeding, check the temperature of the food.

Note: When removing anything from the container, mind that both the appliance and

the food (bottles / jars / tins) become very hot!

General information

Note: You can choose to turn the temperature up or down. Assuming the milk you are

warming comes straight from the fridge (5 °C), it will take approx. 10 − 12 minutes to

warm it (125 ml in normal bottle). Milk at room temperature will warm up more quickly.

The light above the thermostat dial tells you that the appliance is on and that food is being

warmed. It will extinguish when the food has warmed to the correct temperature.

This is the time at which you should check the temperature as described above.

In case the temperature is not alright yet, you can replace the food (bottles / jars / tins) to the

container. After some time, the appliance will resume heating (thermostat indicator lights up).

Meanwhile, the food will be heated further. Before feeding, check the temperature of the food.

Cleaning and maintenance

1. Before cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the mains, tip out any remaining water

and allow the appliance to cool down.

2. Do not immerse in water.

3. Do not use scouring agent for cleaning.

4. Just wipe the appliance with a damp cloth.
