You can sterilize a MAM pacifier in its case using a microwave. Here's how:
Steps for Sterilizing a MAM Pacifier in Its Case
-
Self-Sterilizing Feature: MAM pacifiers are designed for self-sterilization, disinfecting within 3 minutes and remaining sterile for up to 48 hours if the case remains closed.
-
Fill with Water: Pour 25ml of clean water into the MAM pacifier case. There should be a fill line inside the case to guide you.
-
Place Pacifier: Put the pacifier(s) in the case with the nipple facing downwards. This ensures proper steam circulation for effective sterilization.
-
Close the Case: Securely close the MAM pacifier case.
-
Microwave: Heat the closed case in the microwave for 3 minutes at a power level of 750-1000 watts.
Important Notes:
- Always check the pacifier's material and the case for microwave safety before sterilizing.
- Allow the case to cool down before opening it to avoid burns from hot steam.
- Ensure the microwave turntable is clean before use.
- If the microwave wattage is different, adjust the time accordingly (consult the MAM instructions for specific timings).
- Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for your specific MAM pacifier model, as instructions may vary.
