*1 scoop = 7.3g of powder. NOTE: 1 scoop of powder added to 50mL of water and yields approximately 55mL of formula. This feeding guide is a general guide ONLY; your child may need more or less than shown.
How to use
Step 1:
Wash hands before preparing the feed. Clean and then sterilise all utensils by boiling for 5 minutes or using an approved steriliser.
Step 2:
Prepare each bottle separately. Use cooled safe drinking water, that has recently been boiled. CONSULT FEEDING GUIDE. Measure the required volume of water into a sterilised feeding bottle.
Step 3:
Use only the enclosed scoop. Always use a dry scoop. Fill the scoop lightly and level off using the built-in leveller. Avoid compacting the powder.
Step 4:
Always add 1 level scoop of powder for each 50mL of water. Cap the bottle and shake briskly to dissolve the powder.
Step 5:
Test temperature on wrist before feeding. Feed immediately and discard unfinished formula within 2 hours.
Infants over 6 months should be offered foods in addition to formula.
Dental hygiene: A cup can be introduced to your baby at around 6 months. Putting your baby to bed with a bottle or cup can cause tooth decay.
It is safer to prepare each bottle as needed and use immediately after it is prepared. If a bottle of made-up formula is to be prepared in advance, store at the back of the fridge (2-4°C) and use within 24 hours. Discard any refrigerated formula not used within 24 hours.
