Using a Philips microwave sanitizer is a simple process designed to quickly and effectively sterilize baby bottles, breast pump parts, and other items using steam. The core steps involve adding water, loading the items, and microwaving for a short duration.
Here's a breakdown of how to use it:
Simple Steps for Sanitization
The process is straightforward and quick:
- Add Water: Start by adding the recommended amount of water to the base of the sterilizer. This water is crucial as it turns into steam to sanitize the contents.
- Load Items: Place the items you want to sterilize, such as bottles, nipples, or pump parts, inside the sterilizer tray. Ensure they are arranged so steam can circulate freely.
- Place in Microwave: Secure the lid of the sterilizer using the safety clips and place the unit inside your microwave.
Reference Information:
- Just add water, load and place in the microwave for as little as 2 minutes.
Microwave Time
The duration for sterilization in the microwave depends on the wattage of your microwave oven. While the reference mentions as little as 2 minutes, you should always refer to the product's instruction manual for the precise time needed for your specific microwave wattage.
Compatibility and Safety
The Philips microwave sanitizer is designed with convenience and safety in mind:
- Fits Most Microwaves: The Philips AVENT Microwave Sterilizer has been designed to fit most microwaves in the market. This makes it a versatile option for many households.
- Safety Features: The microwave sterilizer has clips on the side for extra safety. These clips help secure the lid during the microwaving process and when removing the hot sterilizer.
Using these steps, you can efficiently sanitize baby feeding items, ensuring they are clean and safe for use. Always allow the unit to cool down before opening the lid after the cycle is complete.
