Dr. Brown's Glass - Manual

Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow ® Baby Bottle
GLASS WARNINGS
Glass bottles can break. Bottles should be
inspected before each use for sharp edges
and fragments or flakes of glass that may
have become dislodged and are 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 bottle and
liquid are same temperature when filling or
warming.
Do not use a microwave oven to heat the
bottle because microwave ovens can create
hotspots in milk or formula. Always test
temperature of liquid before feeding baby.
This bottle may only be used with adult
supervision. Do not let child feed themselves
with glass. Do not let child walk with glass.
Do not let a child take a bottle to bed.
Before first use, sterilize bottle, nipple and
parts by leaving them in boiling water for
five (5) minutes. After every use, bottle,
nipple and parts should be washed
thoroughly with hot, soapy water.
CLEANING
Wash all parts prior to use. The cleaning of
the two (2) additional vent assembly parts
will require an extra moment. This is time
well spent to help avoid spit-ups and other
discomforts to your baby.
1. Always use clean hands and surfaces.
2. Fully disassemble all parts.
3. Silicone nipple - first use only: boil the
nipple in water for five (5) minutes.
4. Wash all parts thoroughly in hot water
and detergent. Use enclosed brush on all
holes in the insert and reservoir.
5. Rinse parts thoroughly, making sure that
the nipple hole is clean and clear.
6. If you use a dishwasher, keep all parts in
the top rack only. Do not exceed 140ºF
(60ºC) water temperature.

ASSEMBLY and FEEDING
INSTRUCTIONS
(Please refer to diagram)
NOTE: The bottle WILL NOT FUNCTION
without the INSERT and RESERVOIR
1. Avoid formula bubbles: Do not shake the
bottle. Formula should be stirred gently
to fully dissolve lumps - they can clog
nipple holes.
2. Fill to the desired amount. The vent will
not work properly if you fill the bottle
above the FILL LINE WARNING.
3. Snap the reservoir fully onto the insert.
4. Place the reservoir into the bottle, with
the insert making full contact with the top
of the bottle.
5. Snap the nipple into the nipple collar and
place loosely on the bottle.
6. Warm the bottle - always remove all
bottle components before warming to
prevent the vent from leaking fluid if gas
forms during warming.
7. Do not warm the liquid beyond body
temperature of 98.6ºF (37ºC). Always
test temperature of liquid before
feeding baby.
8. Be sure to tighten the collar snugly before
feeding, but do not over-tighten.
CAUTIONS
1. Due to the risk of creating formula hot
spots and overheating, the use of a
microwave oven is not recommended.
If you use a microwave oven, remember
that the nipple and collar must always be
removed during heating.
Test temperature
frequently by placing a few drops on
your tongue or back of your hand after
stirring thoroughly to eliminate hot and
cold spots.
2. Pull on the nipple before each use to
make sure it does not tear. Replace the
nipple if it shows any signs of wear, such
as cracking or change of shape.
3. Stop feeding before your baby has
completely emptied the nipple to keep
your baby from swallowing air that may
cause colic or other digestive problems.
4. Remove the bottle from your baby’s
mouth when the baby is not feeding.
Prolonged contact with milk, formula, and
other liquids can cause tooth decay.
5. The components of this bottle are not
toys and should not be given to children
to play with or suck on.
6. Be sure to contact your physician should
you have any feeding problems or
questions.
REMINDERS
A. The nipple included has been specifically
selected for an infant’s first use of the
free-flowing characteristics of the
Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow
® venting
system. Faster flowing Level 2, Level
3, Level 4 and Y-Cut versions of the
nipple are available for all Dr. Brown’s
baby bottles. There is also a slower flow
Preemie nipple available for the standard
bottle only. Nipples of other brands may
leak or feed too fast or too slow.
B. 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 45º angle)
C. Keep your baby propped up rather
than lying down during feeding.
D. While the vent continuously equalizes
pressure, movement of any liquid
remaining in the reservoir tube
is normal.
E. If the reservoir bulb remains over 1/3 full
when the bottle is placed upright, please
check that the nipple hole is clear and
that the insert and reservoir are firmly
pressed together. The reservoir bulb can
be emptied by momentarily loosening the
nipple collar. (Be sure to retighten before
feeding)
F. When transporting bottles, always keep
them upright and use Travel Disk to help
prevent leaking.
G. For proper bottle and venting functions,
use only Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow ®
nipples.
