Frequently asked questions about the Difrax bottle warmer

Heating food or milk with a bottle warmer offers a convenience that a microwave does not. When using a microwave, there is a high chance of hot spots (milk above 50°C), which causes important nutrients to be lost. This risk is minimized with a bottle warmer due to the targeted temperature. The bottle warmer is ready quickly and the bottle can be kept warm for a longer time.

The parts of the bottle warmer can be washed by hand. They are not dishwasher safe.

The bottle warmer itself needs to be descaled regularly to ensure optimal performance. To descale, pour 100 ml of water and 50 ml of vinegar into a cooled and switched-off bottle warmer. Do not leave this in the reservoir for longer than 30 minutes to prevent damage. Then rinse the bottle warmer thoroughly with clean water.

For detailed instructions, see the manual.

Voor gebruik moet de flessenwarmer met een vochtige doek afgenomen worden. De losse onderdelen kunnen met de hand gewassen worden met warm water en een mild reinigingsmiddel en spoel het vervolgens af met warm water.

The loose parts of the bottle warmer are not dishwasher safe. These parts can be cleaned by hand. The bottle warmer itself only needs to be descaled. To do this, add 100ml of water and 50ml of vinegar to the reservoir of a cooled and switched-off bottle warmer. Do not leave it for longer than 30 minutes to prevent damage. After descaling, rinse the bottle warmer with warm water.

For detailed instructions and remarks, see the manual.

The bottle warmer can steam clean bottles/food jars.

For the Difrax S-bottle, unscrew the bottom and the top of the bottle. Then, add 75-85 ml of water to the water reservoir and place the basket and the bottle body into the basket. By selecting the hot mode, the bottle warmer will steam clean the bottle.

Loose parts can also be cleaned this way.

Other bottles or food jars must be placed upside down in the basket for steam cleaning.

For sterilizing bottles or jars, the microwave sterilizer can be used.

Our bottle warmer is versatile and universal:

• The Mammafeel bottle, all our S-bottles, and handled bottles fit into it without any problem, both the wide and narrow variants.
• Also glass baby bottles can be safely used in the bottle warmer.
• The bottle warmer is suitable for almost any brand of baby bottle, making it flexible to use.
  

This way, you can quickly find the right bottle and always feed your baby safely and comfortably.

The bottle warmer has 3 different modes:

Hot mode: In hot mode, you can quickly heat water and breast milk. This way, your baby's food will be ready in no time. In this mode, bottles or jars can also be steam-cleaned.

PLEASE NOTE: when heating breast milk, we recommend swirling the bottle occasionally. This food should not be heated too quickly, so all parts of the food reach the same temperature, preventing hot spots.

Bottle mode: In bottle mode, breast milk in storage bags and jars can be thawed. The keep-warm setting is also under this button. Bottle mode can keep water at the suitable feeding temperature for up to 10 hours.

PLEASE NOTE: Bottles with a screw-off base (including the Difrax S-bottle) are not suitable for this.

Dinner mode: In dinner mode, a jar of solid food can be thawed. This applies to glass and plastic jars. Furthermore, this mode can also keep food warm. Solid food can stay warm for up to 3 hours in dinner mode.

Fles: De fles gaat in alle modi met speen zonder dop in de flessenwarmer.
Voedingspotje: Het voedingspotje gaat zonder deksel in de flessenwarmer.

In bottle mode, a bottle of water can be kept warm for up to 10 hours.
Solid food can be kept at temperature in dinner mode for up to 3 hours.

Jazeker. Op de bottle- en dinnermodus kunnen bewaarzakjes en potjes met moedermelk en vaste voeding worden ontdooid. Je stelt de standaard temperatuur van 40 naar 35 graden. Om de voeding vervolgens op de juiste tempratuur te krijgen, gebruik je de hotmodus. Vergeet niet de tempratuur te checken voor het voeden aan je kindje.

Voor optimaal behoud van je apparaat en om kalkaanslag te voorkomen, is het beste om voorgekookt water te gebruiken. 

De flessenwarmer werkt op kabelaansluiting en dient enkel op een stevige ondergrond gebruikt te worden. Hij mag dus niet onderweg gebruikt worden. Je kan hem uiteraard mee nemen naar een vakantieadres, de kabel kan opgeborgen worden in de flessenwarmer.

A bottle with a screw-off bottom is not suitable for bottle mode. The valve in the bottom is not suitable for prolonged immersion in water. Additionally, it is not recommended to keep food warm for a long time, to ensure the quality of the food. Water can be kept warm in bottle mode. You can then pour this into the S-bottle with the food, and you will have the food readily available quickly and easily at night.

Alle babyvoeding mag je in de flessenwarmer opwarmen. Babyflessen, potjes moedermelk en ook glazen en plastic potjes vaste voeding kan je opwarmen.

Unfortunately, this is not possible. Frozen food must first be thawed using the meal/bottle mode. After this, the food can be brought to temperature by heating it in hot mode. Below you can see approximately how long it takes:

The bottle/dinner mode allows you to keep water and solid food warm in the bottle warmer.

Add 200 ml of water to the water reservoir and place the bottle/jar in the reservoir. Set the display to bottle/dinner mode and the desired temperature, and the timer will start. After 10 or 3 hours, the bottle warmer will switch off automatically. You can, of course, stop the program earlier.

It is not recommended to keep food warm for extended periods.

For detailed instructions, please refer to the manual.

Na het selecteren van de modus start de flessenwarmer automatisch na enkele secondes. Als je hotmodus hebt geselecteerd, hoor je vrij snel hierna het borrelen/koken van het water. Bij de andere twee modi zie je na een minuut de teller verspringen.

Als de flessenwarmer is ingeschakeld en je bent voeding aan het verwarmen, ontdooien of warm houden dan gaat het water borrelen omdat het warm wordt. Dit is in orde en geeft aan dat het product goed z’n werk doet.
