assembling the sterilizer
There are several ways to assemble the sterilizer. 
1  With only the small basket on the base to sterilize small items such as pacifiers (Fig. 9).
2  With only the large basket on the base to sterilize medium-sized items such as toddler plates or 
toddler cutlery (Fig. 10).
3  With the large basket and the small basket on the base to sterilize up to 6 11 fl. oz. (330ml) 
bottles. Place the bottles upside down in the large basket and place the bottle dome caps, screw 
rings and nipples in the small basket (Fig. 11).
Note: When you fill the small basket, put the nipples on the bottom, place the screw rings loosely on top 
of the nipples and clip the bottle caps onto the two pillars in the small basket. 
Note: Make sure all parts that need to be sterilized are completely disassembled and place them in the 
basket with their openings pointing down to prevent them from filling up with water.
