Please take 5 minutes to read through the whole
of this leaflet before you use your Electric Bottle
and Baby Food Warmer for the first time and
retain for future reference.
The Electric Bottle and Baby Food Warmer allows you
to warm all AVENT Feeding Bottles as well as baby
food jars and tins safely and quickly. The Electric Bottle
and Baby Food Warmer isn’t meant for keeping liquid
or food warm as vitamins can be destroyed.
The speed at which the warmer heats the milk or
food depends on the size of the bottle or container
and the starting temperature of the milk or food
(e.g. room temperature 0°C or out of fridge 5°C).
Diagram gives an indication of approximate
warming time. Always test the temperature before
feeding.
The following guidelines are the approximate
temperature the water
* surrounding the
container can reach. This is not a heating guide
for liquid or food!

b) Warmer body

Instructions for Use
For AVENT Feeding Bottles
1) Ensure basket is in place inside the warmer.
) Place the assembled, filled bottle in the warmer.
) For 15ml/4oz Bottles, fill the warmer with water
to just above the level of milk in the bottle.
4) For larger AVENT Bottles (60ml/9oz), fill the
warmer to 15mm (1/ inch) below the rim of
the warmer.
5) Never let the water level rise above the neck of
the bottle or spill over the edge of the warmer.
6) Plug in the unit and switch on at the mains.
Turn the dial to setting .
7) The light will illuminate to indicate the warmer
is working.
8) During the warming process, the light will come
on and off to indicate that the water surrounding
the bottle is being heated to the maximum
temperature of the setting.
9) Always test the feed and when it has reached
the required temperature, remove immediately.
10) Shake the bottle gently and check the temperature
of the milk by sprinkling a few drops on to your
wrist before you feed your baby.
11) Take care not to overheat the milk.
NB: please refer to the timings in Diagram 2.
NB: The basket can be removed when heating the
AVENT Magic Cup and other makes of bottles.
For baby food jars and tins

below the top of the jar/tin.

feeding bottles. Take care when removing the jar
or tin as they, and the water surrounding them,
will be hot.
7) For small jars/tins you may find it beneficial
to place a screw ring from an AVENT Bottle below
the jar/tin before adding the water in order to
remove the container easily.

to ensure it is not too hot for your baby.
9) Take care not to overheat the feed.

Care of your warmer
Unplug and allow to cool before cleaning. Remove
basket and wipe inside and outside with a damp cloth
only, this will keep the warmer looking new
. DO NOT
USE AN ABRASIVE CLEANER . It may be advantageous
to use pre-boiled or filtered water in your warmer in
order to reduce limescale build up.
De-scaling

Warmer every four weeks to ensure it continues to
work 100 % effectively.
EITHER:
Mix one sachet of citric acid (10g) with 00ml/7oz
of water. Ensure basket is in place and pour solution
into warmer. Heat for 10 minutes on setting . After
10 minutes, switch off by unplugging from the wall
and leave to stand for 0 minutes. Pour the solution
away and rinse the warmer with tap water. Citric acid
