Using a standard thermal disinfector for baby
bottles (not a microwave oven)
EQUIPMENT:
– Thermal disinfector with a runtime of at least 6 minutes
PROCEDURE:
CAUTION
Risk of infection due to inadequate disinfection
Inadequate disinfection encourages the growth of bacteria
and thus increases the risk of infection.
• Make sure that the disinfector is clean and operating prop-
erly before every disinfection process.
• Allow the disinfection to continue until the disinfector
switches off automatically or the minimum disinfection
time stated in the instructions for use of the disinfector has
elapsed. Do not switch the device off prematurely.
CAUTION
Risk of infection due to moisture
Moisture encourages the growth of bacteria.
• Remove all parts from the disinfector as soon as the disin-
fection process is finished, and allow them to dry.
Regarding the performance of the disinfection, the duration of
the disinfection procedure and the quantity of water required,
follow the instructions for use of the disinfector you are using.
DRYING:
• After the disinfection process is complete, place all parts on
a dry, clean and absorbent surface and allow them to dry
completely. Or else leave all individual parts in the closed
thermal disinfector for max. 24 hours until the next use.
4.6 Inspecting
Inspect all product components after each cleaning and disin-
fection. Replace any broken, deformed or seriously discoloured
parts.
