Operating Instructions

For Keeping Items Cold:

1. Place your pre-chilled breast milk or other cold items into the 6oz storage bottles or other suitable containers.
2. Arrange the frozen cooler packs around the bottles inside the insulated cooler bag. Ensure good contact between the packs and the items to be kept cold.
3. Securely close the zipper of the cooler bag to maintain the internal temperature.
4. The bag is designed to keep contents cold for up to 8 hours, depending on external temperatures and frequency of opening.

For Keeping Items Warm:

1. Place your warm items into the 6oz storage bottles or other suitable containers.
2. Note: The cooler packs are not designed for heating. For keeping items warm, rely on the bag's insulation.
3. Securely close the zipper of the cooler bag.
4. The bag is designed to keep contents warm for up to 4 hours, depending on external temperatures and initial temperature of contents.

For best results, minimize the time the bag is open and avoid placing hot and cold items together.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning the Bag: The cooler bag should be hand washed only. Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the interior and exterior surfaces. Do not submerge the bag in water.
• Drying: Allow the bag to air dry completely before storing to prevent mold or mildew. Ensure the interior is thoroughly dry.
• Cleaning Bottles: The 6oz storage bottles are reusable and should be washed after each use. They are typically dishwasher safe (top rack) or can be hand washed with warm, soapy water.
• Cooler Packs: Wipe cooler packs clean with a damp cloth if they become soiled. Do not puncture or open the cooler packs.
• Storage: Store the cooler bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
