- It is not recommended to use a microwave to
warm up your baby‘s food or drinks. Microwaves
might alter the quality of food/drinks and destroy
some valuable nutrients and it may produce
localized high temperatures. Therefore, take extra
care if and when you heat up food in a microwave.
- When heating up liquid or food in the microwave,
only place the container without screw ring, teat

heat distribution and check the temperature

of children.

add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk.
- Always discard any breast milk that is left over at
the end of a feed.
- Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or anti-
bacterial cleaners. Do not place components
directly on surfaces that have been cleaned with
anti-bacterial cleaners.
- Plastic material properties may be aected by
sterilizing and high temperatures. This can aect the
t of the cap.
- Inspect before each use and pull the feeding teat
in all directions.Throw away any part at the rst
signs of damage or weakness.

This may result in unsafe functioning of the product.
Before rst and every use
Disassemble all parts and clean them in warm soapy
water and rinse them thoroughly. Sterilize the parts
in boiling water for 5 minutes or by using a Philips
Avent sterilizer. This is to ensure hygiene. During
sterilizing in boiling water, make sure that the pan
contains enough water and prevent the bottle or
other parts from touching the side of the pan. This
can cause irreversible product deformation, defect
or damage that Philips cannot be held liable for.
Make sure that you wash your hands thoroughly
and that the surfaces are clean before contact with
sterilized parts. Place all bottle parts on a clean
paper towel or on a clean drying rack and allow them
to air dry. Excessive concentration of detergents
may eventually cause plastic components to crack.
Should this occur, replace immediately. This product
is dishwasher safe - food colourings may discolour
parts. Clean and sterilize all parts before each use.
For hygiene reasons, we recommend replacing teats
after 3 months.
Assembly
When you assemble the bottle, make sure you place
the cap vertically onto the bottle so that the teat
sits upright (see image for more details). The teat is
easier to assemble if you wriggle it upwards instead
of pulling it up in a straight line.
Maintenance teat
Do not leave a feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat,
or leave in disinfectant (‘sterilizing solution’) for
longer than recommended, as this may weaken the
parts. Keep parts in dry, covered container.
Choosing the right teat for your baby
The Philips Avent teats are separately available with
dierent ow rates to help your baby with drinking.
Over time you can change the teat accommodating
the individual needs of your baby. Philips Avent teats
are clearly numbered on the side to indicate ow
rate. Make sure you use a teat with the correct ow
rate when you feed your baby. Use a lower ow rate
if your baby chokes, is leaking milk or has trouble
adjusting to the drinking speed. Use a higher ow rate
if your baby falls asleep during feeding, gets frustrated
or when feeding takes a very long time. These Philips
Avent teats can be used on the Philips Avent feeding
bottle and Philips Avent storage cups.
