INSTRCTIONS MANUAL

Read and save these instructions for future use.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Use clean hands and clean surfaces when handling. Disassemble and clean the product and then place the components in boiling water for five minutes. This is to ensure hygiene. Wash all parts prior to use. Be sure the nipple/teat hole is clean.

BEFORE EACH USE

Pull on the nipple/teat in all directions before each use to ensure it does not tear. Inspect carefully, especially when the child develops teeth, and replace the nipple/teat immediately if any signs of wear or damage are visible, such as cracking or change of shape. Small pieces can accidentally be inhaled and cause serious injury. Clean before each use. The nipple/teat must be clean and free of obstructions.

CLEANING

Dr. Brown’s Bottles include a two-piece vent system which helps reduce colic, spit-up, burping & gas. The vent system can be quickly and thoroughly cleaned using the wire brush included with the bottle, making it easy to access all openings on the insert and reservoir. Be sure to remove wire cleaning brush from bottle before cleaning. Fully disassemble all parts. Wash all parts thoroughly in hot water and detergent. Rinse parts thoroughly, ensuring the nipple/teat hole is clean and clear. CAUTION: Do not use the wire cleaning brush to clean the nipple/teat as this will cause it to tear. All parts, including the vent system, are dishwasher safe (top rack only), and safe for use in an electric sterilizer, microwave sterilizer or boiling water.

STERILIZING BOTTLES AND NIPPLES/TEATS

You can sterilize bottle-feeding equipment by boiling, soaking in chemical/sterilizing solution or using an electric or microwave sterilizer. Use chemical/sterilizing solutions or sterilizers strictly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. We recommend using the Dr. Brown’s® Microwave or Electric Sterilizer. Steam can cause severe skin burns, use caution when boiling on the stove or using any sterilizing equipment. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling sterilized items. Avoid unnecessary handling of sterilized items and equipment. Do not sterilize or microwave wire cleaning brush.

For your child’s safety and health

WARNING!

• Continuous and prolonged sucking of fluids will cause tooth decay.
• Always check food temperature before feeding.
• Throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness.
• Keep components not in use out of the reach of children.
• Never attach to cords, ribbons, laces or loose parts of clothing. The child may be strangled.
• Never use feeding nipples/teats as a pacifier/soother.
• Remove from your baby’s mouth when the baby is not feeding.
• Always use this product with adult supervision.
• Glass containers may break.
• Always check the nipples/teats for signs of wear and replace when damaged.
• Do not use a microwave oven to heat the bottle as microwave ovens can create hotspots in milk/formula and/or bottle components.
• The bottle components are not toys and should not be given to children to play with or suck on.
• Do not leave the product in direct sunlight, heat or in disinfectant (sterilizing solution) for longer than recommended as this may weaken the nipple/teat.
• Change nipples/teats after approximately six weeks of use.
• When used and sterilized intensively, nipples/teats may deteriorate after six weeks.
• Do not allow a child to walk or run while using any bottle.

CAUTIONS
Stop feeding before your baby has completely emptied the nipple/teat to keep your baby from swallowing air that may cause colic or other digestive problems. Be sure to contact your physician should you have any feeding problems or questions.

GLASS WARNING
Glass bottles may break. Bottles should be inspected before each use for sharp edges, fragments or flakes of glass that may have become dislodged and loose inside the bottle. Do not use bottles if there are any cracks or chips on the bottle. Sudden temperature changes can cause glass bottles to crack or break. Be sure the bottle and liquid are the same temperature when filling or warming. Do not allow baby to self-feed.

ASSEMBLY AND FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS

Please refer to diagram.

Avoid formula bubbles: Do not shake the bottle. Formula should be stirred gently to fully dissolve lumps – as lumps can clog nipple/teat holes. Fill to the desired amount. To prevent potential leaks, do not fill the bottle above the FILL LINE WARNING.

To assemble the internal vent system, connect the reservoir tube to the insert so that they fit snugly together. Place the assembled vent system into the bottle. Snap the nipple/teat into the collar, affix collar to bottle and turn until closed (do not over-tighten). If warming the bottle – always remove all bottle components before warming and use the storage/travel cap. Do not warm the liquid beyond body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C).

Options+ Bottles can be used with or without the vent.

While it is always recommended that the vent system be installed for the most comfortable feeding for your baby, this bottle will also function without the vent system installed and provide a feeding experience similar to most nipple/teat vented bottles. Simply remove the vent assembly. Some parents find this a good option as their baby’s feeding becomes more developed or if their baby no longer has symptoms of colic.

REMINDERS

For proper bottle and venting function, only use Dr. Brown’s® nipples/teats with this bottle; other brands may leak or flow too fast or too slow.
When feeding your baby, hold the bottle so that the reservoir tube hole in the bottom of the bottle is not covered by liquid (approximately at a 45° angle). Keep your baby propped up rather than lying down during feeding.

When transporting bottles, always keep them upright and use travel cap or disk to help prevent leaking. During air travel, please remove internal parts and secure with travel cap or disk to prevent leaking from air pressure.
