and bottle rack). Place the assembled components
in the steriliser and put the lid on.

5) Allow unit to cool, turn off at the mains,

6) Remove baskets and bottle rack, pour away any
remaining water and wipe dry.
BEFORE EACH USE
1) Before sterilising, wash all items in mild
soapy water and rinse.
2) Pour exactly 90ml of water into the steriliser
body. If you add more than 90ml you will
prolong the cycle time. If you use less than
90ml, your items may not be properly
sterilised. Check the water does not exceed
the ‘max’ line.
NB: When loading, always ensure that the steam
can effectively circulate around all surfaces and
that any water can drain off easily.
To sterilise up to six 260ml, 125ml or 330ml
AVENT bottles (see diagram C)
1) Slide the lower basket onto the central stem.
2) Thread 2 screw rings onto the central stem.

the bottle rack onto the lower basket.

To sterilise the AVENT ISIS Breast Pump

in the upper basket and arrange the other breast
pump components as shown. Assemble remaining

To sterilise narrow neck bottles and other
feeding items
Teats should be placed around the central stem in the
lower basket and screw rings in the top basket, as they
are too narrow for the stem. Always ensure items are
positioned within baskets / racks to ensure
effective circulation of steam. The bottle rack and / or
upper basket can be removed to make more room.
After sterilisation (see diagram E)
1) Do not remove the lid straight away. Let the
steriliser cool down for 3 minutes.
2) Turn off at the mains, unplug and disconnect the
lead from the back of the steriliser.
3) Wash your hands thoroughly before removing the
sterilised items.
