with a hot steam steriliser for baby-bottles (not the micro-
wave type). Perform the process thoroughly following the instructions of the steriliser. To ensure the disinfection is effective,
choose a steriliser with an operating cycle of at least 6 minutes.
After disinfecting the accessories, shake them well and place them on a paper towel. Alternatively, dry them with a jet of
hot air (for example a hair dryer).
At the end of each use store the device with its accessories in a dry place away from dust. Do not store wet or
humid components, as this might lead to the formation of mould.
AIR FILTERING
The device is fitted with a suction filter, located inside the pressure adjustment knob,
which must be replaced when it is dirty or discoloured. To replace it, lift the intensity
adjustment Knob (A4) and extract the Filter.
Do not wash or reuse the same Filter. Regular Filter replacement is necessary to as-
sure proper compressor performance. The Filter must be regularly checked. Contact
your dealer or authorised service centre for replacement filters.
