After heating liquids, it is advisable to leave the container to stand in the
oven for at least 20 seconds. This allows the heat to spread through the
liquid and minimises any risk of overflow and scalding.
Stir the liquid during and after heating.
• Warming guide for baby food.

respect the instructions given on the milk cartons.
