It can sterilize up to six bottles at once.

How long do items stay sterile?

Items remain sterile for up to 24 hours if the lid remains unopened.

What kind of water should I use?

Tap water is generally fine, but if you have hard water, consider using filtered or distilled water to reduce mineral build-up.

This could be due to mineral build-up or overheating. Unplug the steriliser and descale it immediately. If the problem persists, contact customer support.
