feeding. Please always observe the

fill the breast milk container (8) with more

freezes and the container may burst.

• The milk may be thawed out in the
container either in the refrigerator, or,
if required immediately, by standing in
warm water.
®
• If desired, warm the milk to body
temperature by placing it in a NUK
Bottle Warmer, or in a container of
heated water. Always check temperature
of the milk on your wrist before feeding
baby.
CAUTION: Breast milk must not be
thawed out in a microwave as this will
destroy valuable nutrients as well as
cause possible damage to the container
material, which may cause the risk of
explosion. Uneven heating may also result
in scalding!
• The milk should therefore be shaken
gently before feeding to ensure that milk
and milk fats are well mixed and that the
warm breast milk is evenly distributed.
• Defrosted, re-heated or unused milk
must be disposed of and not refrozen.
• If you express breast milk more than
once within a period of 24 hours, the
freshly expressed milk may be added
to the previously cooled breast milk
under the following conditions: The
temperatures must be the same (cold
on cold). Freshly expressed milk must
therefore be cooled first before being
added to milk that is already cool.
• Consult your medical professional for
more detailed information about storage.
