Putting into operation

The appliance can be used for a convenient warming up and keeping warm of feeding bottles and all standard sized baby food jars with a diameter of up to 73mm

Prior to use, roll up the not required cord at the bottom of the appliance and slide the pointed end of the lifter into the groove in the upper edge of the appliance.

To warm up baby food jars, only push the lifter down until the edge of the open glass is just over the appliance. For feeding bottles, push the lifter right down to the bottom.

Then fill container with water up to 2cm below the edge.

Comment: Sometimes, the jugs of some manufacturers of baby food might jam when inserting into the appliance. The often reason for this is an non-round jug. Please try to turn the jug a bit - by this normally it fits in slightly.

Temperature control

The temperature of the water bath can be controlled by the rotary switch. The warming up of the baby food depends on the consistency and composition of the bottle or the glass.

For solid food choose a higher setting of the rotary switch than for liquid food. Full bottles and jars also require a higer setting than for less filled ones. When practising the correct setting can be found quickly.

The control lamp shows that the device is heating. It goes out as soon as the water reaches the set temperature. For taking out the food jars, push the lifter a bit upwards.

Shake the bottle well or stir the baby food well in order to guarantee equally warm contents.

The right temperature should always be checked by holding the baby bottle against the cheek or better by tasting yourself.

If the food is to be kept warm for some time, the jar or the bottle should be left in the container.

The thermostat guarantees a constant temperature by switching on the heating time after time.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning always unplug the appliance and pour out the remaining water. Never immerse the appliance into water.

Do not use caustic or scouring cleansing agents. Clean with a damp cloth, if necessary use some washing-up liquid.
