Key Features
- Spill-Proof Valve: Each cup includes a two-piece, detachable valve designed to prevent spills. This valve can also be removed for free-flow drinking as your child progresses.
- Bite-Resistant Spout: The durable spout is gentle on sensitive mouths while being robust enough to withstand teething and biting.
- Easy-Grip Handles: Ergonomically designed handles provide a comfortable and secure grip for small hands, aiding in the development of independent drinking skills.
- BPA-Free Materials: All components are made from BPA-free and BPS-free materials, ensuring safety for your child.
- Dishwasher Safe: For convenient cleaning, all parts of the cup are dishwasher safe.

Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash all parts (cup, lid, valve, handles) in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Alternatively, place all components on the top rack of your dishwasher.
- Assemble Valve: Ensure the two-piece non-spill valve is correctly assembled and securely fitted into the lid. The valve consists of a soft silicone part and a hard plastic part. Press the silicone part firmly into the plastic part until it clicks.
- Attach Handles: If desired, attach the easy-grip handles to the cup by sliding them onto the designated grooves until they are secure. The handles are designed to be removable.
- Fill Cup: Fill the cup with your desired cold beverage. Do not overfill.
- Secure Lid: Screw the lid onto the cup firmly until it is tight to ensure a spill-proof seal.
Operating Instructions
The Tommee Tippee Trainer Sippee Cup is designed for simple and effective use by toddlers learning to drink independently.
- Drinking: Your child can drink from the cup by gently sucking on the bite-resistant spout. The spill-proof valve will regulate the flow of liquid.
- Free-Flow Option: For older toddlers or when a faster flow is desired, the two-piece valve can be removed from the lid. This converts the cup to a free-flow drinking cup.
- Handle Use: Encourage your child to use the easy-grip handles to hold the cup, promoting coordination and independence. The handles are designed to be comfortable for small hands.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Proper cleaning and maintenance are essential for hygiene and extending the life of your Tommee Tippee Sippee Cups.
- Disassembly: Before cleaning, fully disassemble the cup. Separate the cup, lid, handles, and the two-piece valve.
- Washing: Wash all components in warm soapy water. Use a bottle brush or a small brush to clean all crevices, especially within the valve components, to prevent residue buildup. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Dishwasher Cleaning: All parts are safe for cleaning on the top rack of a dishwasher. Ensure all components are placed securely to prevent them from falling to the heating element.
- Sterilization: For added hygiene, especially for younger babies, the cups can be sterilized using a sterilizer (steam, UV, or cold water) or by boiling for 5 minutes.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembly or storage to prevent mold growth.
- Storage: Store disassembled or fully dry cups in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
