Troubleshooting

Sterilizer not turning on.

Ensure your microwave is plugged in and functioning correctly. The sterilizer itself does not turn on; it uses the microwave's power to create steam.

Bottles are not sterile.

Make sure you've added the correct amount of water (200 ml) to the base of the sterilizer. Also, ensure the items are arranged correctly for steam to reach all surfaces.

Sterilizer smells burnt.

Check if the sterilizer has been run dry (without water). Ensure the correct cycle time is set based on your microwave's wattage.

Lid does not close securely.

Check for any obstructions or misplaced items inside the sterilizer that may prevent the lid from closing properly. Clean the lid's side grips.
