To set up the Chicco Microwave Steam Sterilizer, wash all parts with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and wipe dry. Assemble the unit according to the user manual and it's ready for use.
The sterilizer is designed to sterilize baby bottles, nipples, pacifiers, and small baby accessories made of heat-resistant materials. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for compatibility.
Add approximately 200ml of water to the base of the sterilizer. This amount is generally recommended, but always refer to the user manual for specific measurements.
The usual sterilization time is between 5 to 8 minutes depending on the microwave's wattage. Refer to the manual for exact timing instructions based on wattage.
Clean the sterilizer with warm soapy water after every use. Descale it regularly using a vinegar solution to prevent limescale buildup. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.
An unusual odor may indicate residue buildup. Clean the sterilizer thoroughly and descale with a vinegar solution. Ensure all parts are rinsed properly before next use.
The sterilizer is compatible with most standard microwaves. Ensure the microwave has enough interior space to fit the sterilizer comfortably without touching the sides.
After sterilization, keep items inside the sterilizer with the lid closed to maintain sterility. Use within 24 hours or re-sterilize if needed.
If no steam is produced, ensure enough water is added, and the microwave is set to the correct power level and time. Inspect for blockages in the vent holes and clean if necessary.
To prevent overheating, do not exceed the recommended sterilization time. Ensure the microwave is not set to a power higher than recommended, and always use the correct amount of water.
