Frequently Asked Questions - Avent SCF922 PHILIPS

How to use the sterilizer for the first time?

Before first use, run an empty cycle: pour 90 ml of water onto the heating plate, place the baskets and lid, plug in and press the start button. The appliance stops automatically after about 10 minutes. Let it cool, then rinse and dry the baskets.

Why does water leak from the sterilizer?

This may be due to excess water (do not exceed 90 ml) or improper positioning of the power cord in its compartment at the base. Make sure the appliance is on a stable, level surface.

How to clean the sterilizer?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool. Empty the remaining water from the heating plate. Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth. Wash the baskets and lid by hand with dish soap, then dry them. Never immerse the base.

How often should you descale the sterilizer?

It is recommended to descale weekly with a mixture of 60 ml water and 30 ml white vinegar (6-8% acetic acid). Let it sit until the limescale disappears (about 20 minutes, max 1 hour), then rinse thoroughly.

Why do white spots form on the heating plate or baskets?

These are limescale deposits, normal with hard water. Descale the appliance regularly to prevent accumulation.

Why does the lid release a lot of steam?

Check that the lid is properly positioned and securely attached to the small basket. Improper fit may cause steam leakage.

What to do if the sterilization cycle is too long or too short?

The standard duration is 10 minutes with 90 ml of water. If you add too much water, the cycle will be longer; if too little, it will be shorter. Adjust the water amount to 90 ml.

Can I use the sterilizer for items other than bottles?

Yes, you can sterilize any item suitable for steam (teats, breast pumps, teething rings without liquid). Ensure the items can withstand heat and place openings facing down.

How do I know the sterilizer has finished its cycle?

The power indicator turns off and the appliance stops automatically. Wait about 10 minutes for cooling before opening the lid to avoid burns.

What to do if the appliance does not restart after a cycle?

The appliance requires a cooling time of about 10 minutes after each cycle before it can be reused. Wait for the heating plate to cool down, then try again.

Using the steriliser (Fig. 3)

Note

• To make sure the steriliser stands stable, clip the mains cord into the cord slot in the bottom of the base.
• Make sure all parts that need to be sterilised are completely disassembled and place them in the basket with their openings pointing down to prevent them from filling up with water.
• Only place items which are suitable for sterilising in the steriliser. Do not sterilise items that are filled with liquid, e.g. a teether with cooling fluid.

1 Thoroughly clean the items to be sterilised.
2 Use a baby bottle and pour 90ml / 3 fluid oz purified water or tap water directly into the heating plate. (Fig. 3-1)
3 Place the big basket on the base. Adjust the position of the basket so that it fits properly on the base. Then put the bottles in the basket with their openings pointing down. (Fig. 3-2)
4 Place the small basket in the big basket (Fig. 3-3). Adjust the position of the small basket so that it fits properly in the big basket, then put the accessories in the small basket.

Tip

• When putting larger teats in the small basket, place the teat in the basket first, then place the dome cap on the teat, and place the screw ring on the dome cap. (Fig. 3-4)

5 Place the lid on top of the small basket. Adjust the position of the lid so that it fits properly on the small basket. (Fig. 3-5-1)

  The sterilised items might be hot. Be careful not to get burnt by them.

Note

Tip

• After the appliance has cooled down, you can hang the lid on the side of the big basket (Fig. 4-1). You can also place the lid on a table with the handle facing down (Fig. 4-2), this way you can put the small basket on the tilted lid to keep it hygienic, and easily take out the sterilised items in the big basket.
• When removing the items from the big and small baskets, you can use a Philips Avent bottle tong (sold separately).

Cleaning (Fig. 5)

2 After the appliance has cooled down, pour out any remaining water from the heating plate (Fig. 5-2), and then clean the surfaces around the base and heating plate with a soft cloth (Fig. 5-3).
3 Clean the big basket, small basket and lid under the tap with some washing-up liquid, and wipe them dry.

Note

After cleaning, store the steriliser in a clean and dry place.

Dscaling

When you use the steriliser, small spots may appear on the heating plate in the base. This is limescale that is building up. The harder the water, the faster limescale builds up. Descale the steriliser once each week to ensure that it continues to work effectively. The frequency of descending depends on how much limescale is building up.

12 ENGLISH

1 Pour 60ml / 2 fluid oz of water and 30ml / 1 fluid oz of white vinegar (6 - 8%) acetic acid) into the heating plate.
2 Leave the solution in the heating plate until the limescale has resolved. The process takes about 20 minutes, but should not be longer than 1 hour.
3 Empty the heating plate, thoroughly rinse it and wipe with a soft cloth.

Note

• When descending, do not put the plug in the wall socket.
  After descaling, store the steriliser in a clean and dry place.

Troubleshooting

This chapter lists the questions most frequently asked about the appliance. If you cannot find the answer to your question, contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.

Question Solution

Why does water flow out of the steriliser?	• You may have poured too much water into the steriliser. Do not pour more than 90ml water into the heating plate. • The steriliser may not be stably positioned. Make sure the mains cord is well fitted inside of the cord slot in the bottom of the base.
Why are there white spots on the heating plate, the baskets or the lid?	• Limescale build-up is normal and occurs more quickly in hard water areas. Descale the appliance regularly (see chapter ‘Descaling').
Why does a lot of steam escape from under the lid?	• Check if the lid has been placed on the small basket properly.
Why does the sterilisation process take so long?	• To sterilise the items thoroughly, the default sterilising time is around 10 minutes (when 90ml water is poured into the heating plate). • You may have poured too much water into the steriliser (see chapter ‘Using the steriliser’). The amount of water in the steriliser and the number of items placed in the baskets determine the actual sterilising time.
Why is the sterilisation process so short?	• You may have poured too little water into the steriliser (see chapter ‘Using the steriliser’).
Why does the appliance start to heat up, and the power-on indicator lights up immediately when I plug it in?	• When you press the power-on button before you put the plug in the wall socket, the steriliser starts operating immediately when you plug it in. Do not touch the heating plate as it starts heating up immediately. You can press the power-off button to stop the heating process.
Why can’t I restart the appliance?	• After a sterilising cycle, the appliance does not work before it has cooled down. Wait for around 10 minutes before you switch on the appliance again.
