Feeding your baby expressed breast milk
You can feed your baby with breast milk from Philips AVENT bottles and storage cups:
1
If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.
Note: In case of an emergency, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.
2
Heat the bottle or storage cup with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water
or in a bottle warmer.
Note: Milk and food heat up faster in the storage cups than in standard feeding bottles/containers.
Be aware that heating up milk and food in storage cups therefore takes less time
3
Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle or remove the lid from the storage cup.
4
If you are using a storage cup, screw the adapter onto the cup.
5
Screw a sterilised screw ring with sterilised teat onto the bottle or onto the storage cup with adapter.
Do's
-
Always check the temperature of the milk before you feed it to your baby.
-
Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.
Don'ts
-
Never heat milk in a microwave, as this can cause uneven heating, which can lead to hot spots in
the milk. It may also destroy nutrients in the milk.
Cleaning and sterilising
Caution: Wash your hands thoroughly before you touch sterilised items and make sure the
surfaces on which you place sterilised items are clean.
Breast pump
Clean and sterilise all parts of the breast pump before first use. Clean all parts after each
subsequent use and sterilise all parts before each subsequent use.
1
Disassemble the breast pump completely. Also remove the white valve.
Be careful when you remove the white valve and when you clean it. If it gets damaged, your
breast pump does not function properly. To remove the white valve, gently pull at the ribbed tab
on the side of the valve.
2
Clean all parts in hot water with some mild washing-up liquid and then rinse them
thoroughly. You can also clean the parts in the dishwasher (on the top rack only).
To clean the valve, rub it gently between your fingers in warm water with some washing-up
liquid. Do not insert objects into the valve, as this may cause damage.
3
Sterilise all parts in a Philips AVENT steam steriliser or by boiling them for 5 minutes.
Philips AVENT storage cups (SCF330/13 only) and Natural bottle (all other
SCF330 types)
1
After each use, clean the parts with water and some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher.
The bottle and storage cups are dishwasher-safe. Clean them on the top rack of the dishwasher. Do
not put any other objects on top of the them.
Note: Do not use abrasive or antibacterial cleaning agents.
Note: Excessive concentrations of cleaning agents may eventually cause plastic parts to crack. Should this
occur, replace the cracked part immediately.
Note: Food colourings may discolour parts.
