Before first 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 different flow 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 flow rate. Make sure
you use a teat with the correct flow rate when
you feed your baby. Use a lower flow rate if
your baby chokes, is leaking milk or has trouble
adjusting to the drinking speed. Use a higher
flow 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.
