Natural Instinct Bottle
Recommended Sterilisation Methods
Polyamide (PA) belongs to the nylon family of 'amides' which are a class of nylon materials which DO NOT tolerate microwave energy created in a microwave. For this reason our Natural Instinct Bottles CANNOT be microwave sterilised. Additionally, due to the lack of third-party testing and regulated safety information on UV sterilisation overall, as well as it's impact on Polyamide, we DO NOT recommend using UV sterilisation either.
Our recommended sterilisation methods for our Natural Instinct Bottles are as follows:
- Boiling Water
- Electric Steam/Dry Steriliser
- Dishwasher (Top Rack)
Product Instructions
- Before first use, disassemble and ensure bottle and teat are thoroughly cleaned, sterilised and suitable for use.
- Ensure teat size is the correct age/flow for your baby – seeing sizing (NB, SS, S, M, X) embossed on the side of the teat.
- Fill kettle with fresh water and boil. Once boiled set aside for 20-30 minutes or until the water is approximately 40°C
- Pour warm water into the bottle and fill to the measured level. Double check this is correct. Note: Always pour water in first before powdered formula to reduce chances of clumps and undissolved formula.
- Following manufacturer instruction and using provided scoop, measure out required amount of powdered formula and level it off either on the side of the tin, with a clean knife or with a provided leveler. Optional: Use our Formula Funnel to prevent spillage and mess.
- Twist green ring with inserted teat onto the bottle. Thanks to our Airshield® Valve, it does not matter how tightly the collar is screwed on, it will not affect the airflow in the bottle.
- Swirl the bottle until all of the formula powder dissolves. Again, thanks to our Airshield® Valve, shaking the bottle does not matter, the valve will ensure no unnecessary air is swallowed by bub!
- Check the temperature of the formula mixture by placing a drop of the milk on the inside of your wrist. It should be just above body temperature, meaning it will feel warm/lukewarm but not hot.
- Remove lid and offer to your child in a comfortable sitting position.
- After feeding, if there is any made-up formula leftover after an hour, always
discard.
