IHEVEA BABY GLASS BOTTLES INSTRUCTIONS & MAINTENANCE
· Cleaning Before first use: The glass bottle must be washed in a sterilizing solution, dishwasher, or boiled in water for 5 minutes before first time use.
· Warming Bottle Contents: The baby bottle can be heated up in a bottle warmer. Use water to cool the feeding bottle down. Do not heat the bottle up in the microwave, which could make the food heat up unevenly. Always check the food temperature before feeding the baby to prevent them from being scalded.
· There are gradations on the feeding bottle but if more accurate measurements are needed, please use measuring cup or measuring spoon.
· When shaken, the pressure inside the bottle may go up and cause leakage or spraying-up because of the high temperature of the liquid inside.
· HEVEA baby bottles can be used with nipples adapted to the baby’s growth between slow and medium flow.
· KINDLY REMINDER: Irregular lines can appear on the surface of the bottle, which is normal and shall not be defined as quality problem.
Please change the bottle and use a new one once you find it broken or cracked. Glass-made baby bottles are fragile. Do not let babies hold it themselves to prevent injuries if the bottle drops. Additionally, thermal shock can cause the bottle to shatter if the difference between the room temperature and the temperature of the liquid inside is too high - avoid extreme temperatures.
NATURAL RUBBER BOTTLE NIPPLE/ TEAT INSTRUCTIONS & MAINTENANCE
· Cleaning Before first use: Place in boiling water for 5 minutes. This is to ensure hygiene. Clean before each use with warm water. For babies up to 3 months disinfect the feeding teat regularly (boiling or similar). When boiling, make sure that there is always enough water in the pot to avoid material damage. Do not boil in pressure cooker. Do not clean in dishwasher or disinfect in microwave – detergents and heat produced by the microwave could damage the material. After cleaning make sure that no water is left inside the teat.
· Always check the nipple for tear and wear - by pulling the nipple in all directions. The rubber nipple should be replaced after 6-8 weeks of use.
· Ventilated teat: The valve in HEVEA bottle teat causes pressure equalization in the bottle and reduces unrequested aerophobia during feeding.
· If using a HEVEA Standard Neck Baby Glass Bottle, tighten the ring securely, but do not squeeze flange or valve too much. ·
· Warning - do not leave feeding teat in direct sunlight or heat, or leave in a disinfectant for longer then recommended, as this may weaken the teat.
