Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the bottle warmer and all its components from the packaging.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wipe the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth. Wash the removable basket with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry. Do not immerse the main unit in water.
3. Placement: Place the bottle warmer on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit.

Operating Instructions

Warming Baby Bottles (Milk):

1. Ensure the water reservoir is filled to the appropriate level.
2. Place the baby bottle (with cap removed) into the removable basket.
3. Carefully lower the basket with the bottle into the warmer.
4. Turn the temperature control dial to the desired setting. For milk, a setting around 25°C to 37°C (body temperature) is usually ideal. The dial allows for continuous adjustment.
5. The LED indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the warmer is heating.
6. Once the desired temperature is reached, the LED light will turn off.
7. Carefully remove the bottle using the basket handle. Always test the milk temperature on the back of your hand before feeding to ensure it is not too hot.

2. Place the baby food jar (with lid removed) into the removable basket.
3. Carefully lower the basket with the jar into the warmer.
4. Turn the temperature control dial to a higher setting, such as 70°C, for warming food. Adjust as needed.
5. The LED indicator light will illuminate during heating.
6. Once the desired temperature is reached, the LED light will turn off.
7. Carefully remove the jar using the basket handle. Stir the food and test the temperature before feeding.
8. Turn the dial to "OFF" after use and unplug the unit.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Daily Cleaning:

• Always unplug the warmer and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Empty any remaining water from the reservoir.
• Wipe the interior and exterior of the warmer with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scourers.
• Wash the removable basket with warm soapy water, rinse, and dry.

Descaling:

Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up in the heating element, especially in areas with hard water. Descale the unit regularly (e.g., monthly or bi-monthly) to ensure optimal performance.

1. Mix 50ml of white vinegar with 100ml of cold water.
2. Pour the solution into the water reservoir of the warmer.
3. Turn the dial to the 100°C setting and let it run until the LED light turns off.
4. Unplug the unit and let the solution sit for 30 minutes.
5. Pour out the solution and rinse the reservoir thoroughly with clean water several times to remove any vinegar residue.
6. Wipe dry.

Storage:

When not in use, store the bottle warmer in a clean, dry place, out of reach of children.
