1. Ensure that the warmer is placed on a firm level surface. Open the lid using the front catch, and fill

the warmer with the appropriate amount of water (i) – See page 2 to determine water amount. Place the fully assembled bottle (including dome cap to prevent overheating) or storage container with lid in the warmer. For food jars and tins, please refer to manufacturer’s instructions. N.B. When warming a 330ml/11oz bottle, the lid flap will lift to accommodate the larger size. This will cause a small amount of steam to rise from the warmer. Close the lid ensuring that the front catch ‘clicks’ shut.

2. Plug in the warmer and switch on at the mains.

3. Switch on the warmer by holding the Power/Mode Selection Button for 3 seconds (ii). The

warmer will beep, and the milk, room temperature and ml/oz symbols will illuminate. It is now ready for use. If the lid has not been closed correctly, the symbols will flash. When the unit is switched on, it automatically defaults to the milk/room temperature mode. If this is the mode you need, go to step 5. If not, proceed to step 4.

4. Choose milk or food, and select the starting temperature (iii) by pressing the Power/Mode

Selection Button repeatedly until the desired symbols are illuminated. Please note that there are 6 possible options: milk from room temperature, milk from chilled,

milk from frozen, food from room temperature, food from chilled, and food from frozen. (See Display Guide if needed.) N.B. Warming food jars or tins from frozen is NOT recommended. However, you can warm frozen food in VIA Cups within the warmer. N.B. Please ensure that the correct options are selected, as milk and food should not be heated for too long.

5. Select the amount of milk or food in the bottle or container by repeatedly pressing the Volume

Selection/Start Button until the desired volume is illuminated (iv). If the desired amount is not shown on the display, please select the amount nearest to it. N.B. For volumes in grams, select the same amount in ml (e.g. for 85g select 85ml). N.B. The maximum volume that may be selected when warming food from frozen is 230ml/8oz.

6. Start the warming cycle (v): Once the desired settings are illuminated, hold down the Volume

Selection/Start Button until the warmer beeps. The volume display will now flash ascending and descending lights up to the selected amount. The warming cycle is in progress – Do not open the lid.

7. Completion of warming cycle (vi):When the cycle is complete, the warmer will beep intermittently

for 30 seconds and all the volume display lights will continuously flash for 3 minutes.You can remove the contents as soon as the warmer begins beeping. After 3 minutes, the warmer will beep 5 times and will turn off automatically. N.B. Philips AVENT recommends removing and using the contents immediately when the warming cycle is complete, even before the warmer automatically turns off.

8. Open the lid carefully to avoid any residual steam. Be careful when opening the lid as steam can

escape and cause injury. Use a cloth when removing the container, as it may be hot (vii). Use the lifter to raise small bottles,VIA Cups, small food jars or tins. Pull the lifter just above the circular rim. Rest the lifter on the rim where it naturally sits. N.B. Do not remove the lifter from the warmer.

9. Before feeding your baby: Always check feed temperature before feeding

(a) Milk – shake the bottle or milk storage container and check the temperature of the milk by sprinkling a few drops on the back of your hand. (b) Food – stir the food thoroughly and test it yourself with a spoon to ensure it is not too hot. If food is not warm enough, consult the Troubleshooting Guide. N.B. Please ensure the lid of the container is tightly secured prior to shaking.

10. Unplug at the mains, and empty any residual water (viii). Ensure that the plug does not come

into contact with water. If warming an additional bottle or container, continue from step 1. Otherwise, clean the inside and outside of the warmer with a damp cloth (viii). To remove the lifter for cleaning purposes ONLY, lift vertically up until it naturally resists. Push the handle away from you and rotate 90º or until it can naturally be removed, then lift out. N.B. For microbiological and hygienic reasons, once heated, milk and food should not be reheated again, and should be discarded if not used immediately. Please consult your health professional/breastfeeding adviser for further guidance about safety recommendations on feeding. N.B. If at any time the warmer is switched on and not running a cycle, it will automatically turn off after 3 minutes if no selections have been made.

Care of your iQ Bottle and Baby Food Warmer Always unplug the warmer and allow it to cool before cleaning. Wipe the inside and outside of the warmer with a damp cloth. DO NOT USE AN ABRASIVE CLEANER. Using cool pre-boiled or filtered water in your warmer may reduce limescale build-up. When the warmer needs de-scaling, the mode and starting temperature symbols will flash on the electronic display. To ensure maximum effectiveness, you should de-scale your warmer every time it is required. To acknowledge the de-scale warning, press and hold the Power/Mode Selection or Volume Selection/Start Button for 3 seconds. If you do not wish to de-scale, please be aware that the unit will not remind you to de-scale on your next use, but will instead begin re-counting cycles until the next de-scaling is needed. IMPORTANT! DE-SCALING Under no circumstances should anything other than citric acid or vinegar be used as it may cause irreparable damage. Avoid contact with eyes as this may cause irritation. Keep out of the reach of children. EITHER: Mix one sachet of citric acid* (10g) with 200ml/7oz of water. Pour solution into the empty warmer. DO NOT place a bottle, jar or cup into the warmer when de-scaling. Close the lid of the warmer and programme the warmer to run with 310ml/11oz of milk from frozen. After the warming cycle has ended, leave the solution to cool for 30 minutes before emptying the warmer and rinsing with tap water. Wipe the inside and outside of the warmer with a damp cloth only. OR: Pour 100ml/3.5oz of vinegar mixed with 200ml/7oz of cold water into the warmer. Allow liquid to stand in the unit until any limescale has dissolved.

On step 4 and 5, choose the food from room temperature mode and programme the warmer at the 30ml/1oz option. Before feeding your baby, stir the food. Always check food temperature before feeding.
