Before first use
Before you use the steriliser for the first time, clean it thoroughly as described below.
1
Remove the basket from the base.
2
Fill a baby bottle or a measuring cup with exactly 200ml tap water and pour this into the
base (Fig. 2).
The amount of water needs to be exactly 200ml. When the base contains too much water, the
items will not be sterilised properly. When the base does not contain enough water, this can
cause damage to the steriliser or microwave.
3
Place the basket in the base (Fig. 3).
4
Put the lid on the steriliser (1) and push down the clips to lock the lid into place (2). (Fig. 4)
5
Place the steriliser in the microwave. (Fig. 5)
Note: Make sure that the microwave is clean and dry before you start sterilising.
Note: If you have a combination oven, make sure that the oven or grill is switched off and has cooled
down before you put the steriliser in it.
6
Select the appropriate microwave wattage and time (see the table in chapter 'Using the
microwave steriliser') and let the microwave operate.
7
After the microwave has finished, open it and let the steriliser cool down before you
remove it from the microwave.
8
Pull open the clips (1) and remove the lid (2) (Fig. 6).
9
Pour out the remaining water and rinse the base and basket thoroughly.
Preparing for use
Filling the basket
Before you put the items to be sterilised in the basket, clean them thoroughly in the dishwasher
or clean them by hand with hot water and some washing-up liquid. Make sure you remove all milk
residues.
Note: Make sure all items to be sterilised are completely disassembled and place them in the basket
with their openings pointing downwards, to prevent them from filling with water.
Note: Do not stack the items too closely together. The steam has to be able to circulate around the
items to ensure effective sterilisation.
There are several ways to fill the basket:
Four Philips AVENT feeding bottles
1
Place the bottles upside down in the bottle cavities. (Fig. 7)
2
Place the teats in the teat cavities (Fig. 8).
3
Place the screw rings loosely on top of the teats (Fig. 9).
Note: Larger screw rings only fit if placed in slanted position over the teats.
4
Place the dome caps in the dome cap holders (Fig. 10).
