Check the scope of delivery

Congratulations on your purchase of your bottle warmer. All bottle warmers come in sealed packaging because they are a hygiene product. We attach great importance to hygiene standards, so please check immediately after receiving your parcel that the packaging seals have not been broken. The scope of delivery includes:

• LIINI® 3.0 bottle warmer
• USB-C fabric cable, white
• Seal for the heating plate (already inserted)

Fully charge the bottle warmer

Before first use, the bottle warmer should be fully charged using the USB cable supplied. With the LIINI quick-charge adapter (available as an option), a full charge takes about 90 minutes. Always make sure you use only suitable adapters that carry a CE marking.

If you want to check the battery level while charging, you can briefly disconnect the bottle warmer from the power supply. The current battery level is then displayed for 5 seconds.

Cleaning before first use

Before first use, we recommend thoroughly cleaning the heating area. To do this, you can remove the inserted sealing ring with your fingers.

In the next step, you can clean and disinfect the heating plate and the sealing ring. We recommend our LIINI® cleaning and disinfecting wipes, which eliminate up to 99.9 % of all viruses and bacteria.

You can find replacement seals in our shop:

Lid with screw cap

LIINI® 3.0 now has a plastic lid with a screw cap instead of the silicone lid of LIINI® 2.0.

Close the lid carefully and pay attention to the icons on the back of the bottle warmer. It is best to position the lid on the unlock icon and then turn it in the direction of the arrow to close it. Do not use force, to protect the guides in the housing and keep wear to a minimum.

Battery status display

LIINI® 3.0 now charges twice as fast as its predecessor. In just 90 minutes, you can fully charge the bottle warmer.

You can see the current battery level if you briefly disconnect the device from the power supply or remove the USB-C cable. The current battery level is then displayed for 5 seconds.

If your device is fully charged, the touchscreen shows “100” for 5 minutes and then switches off automatically.

Protect the USB port from moisture

The USB port of the device should be checked regularly for moisture – especially after cleaning.

We recommend blowing out the USB port before every charge to remove dust particles and residual moisture.

Preparing the baby bottle, explained step by step with pictures.

1. 1

   Step 1: Open the lid with the screw cap

   The hard plastic lid protects the heating area from dirt. The lid can easily be removed and stored safely in the meantime.

   When opening, pay attention to the icons on the back of the bottle warmer. Turn the lid towards the unlock icon to remove it.

   For transport, we also recommend our LIINI® transport and travel bag made of 100 % cotton.

   

2. 2

   Step 2: Disinfect the heating plate

   Before every use, the stainless-steel heating plate should be cleaned with a disinfecting wipe for babies. We recommend our LIINI® cleaning and disinfecting wipes.

   You can leave the residual liquid from the wipe to work for 60 seconds and then wipe away the residue with a dry cloth.

   Caution

   Do not touch the housing

   When disinfecting, take care not to touch the plastic housing of LIINI® – this could cause discolouration.

   

3. 3

   Step 3: Check the sealing ring on the heating plate

   Before each use, check that the sealing ring is correctly fitted on the heating plate. The sealing ring must be inserted as shown in the illustration – the two sealing lips must always be visible and must not point downwards.

   The sealing ring can easily be removed for cleaning and can also be cleaned on the go with a disinfecting wipe.

   The sealing ring is a wearing part – you can find a suitable replacement in our shop:

4. 4

   Step 4: Check the sealing ring in the adapter

   If your baby bottle does not need an adapter, please continue with step 6.

   All adapters have an additional sealing ring that keeps the connection between the baby bottle and the adapter tight.

   During use, make sure that the sealing rings of the heating plate and of any adapter are not swapped.

   The device is only 100 % leak-proof if both sealing rings (heating plate and adapter) are used.

   

5. 5

   Step 5: Screw on the adapter

   An adapter is required when using the following baby bottles:

   • Babylove by dm (wide-neck bottle)
   • Babylove by dm (narrow bottle neck)
   • Bibs
   • Dr. Brown’s (narrow bottle neck)
   • Lansinoh
   • MAM
   • NIP Cherry Green
   • Medela
   • NIP (narrow bottle neck)
   • NUK First Choice
   • NUK Nature Sense
   • NUK Perfect Match
   • Tommee Tippee
   • Twistshake (plastic bottles)

   Screw the adapter hand-tight onto the bottle warmer.

   

6. 6

   Step 6: Add breast milk / water

   For breast milk: Pour the desired amount of breast milk directly into the baby bottle.

   For milk powder / breast milk substitutes: When using powder products, the mineral water from the bottle (or boiled tap water) must now be poured into the baby bottle in the desired amount. The milk powder is not added yet.

   

7. 7

   Step 7: Screw onto the baby bottle

   Now screw the bottle warmer upside down onto the baby bottle and tighten it hand-tight.

   We can guarantee that the bottle warmer is 100 % leak-proof. If liquid leaks out, check that the sealing ring on the heating plate (step 3) and the one in the adapter (step 4) are fitted correctly.

   If both sealing rings are in place and liquid still leaks out, also check both sealing rings for cracks.

   

8. 8

   Step 8: Switch on LIINI 3.0

   The bottle warmer has a child lock.

   Start the bottle warmer by touching the power icon area for 3 seconds and keeping your finger on the icon. You only need to touch gently and not press.

   Once the device has been unlocked, the current battery level is displayed. By touching once again while the battery level is shown (do not leave your finger on it), you can now set the temperature.

   

9. 9

   Step 9: Set the desired drinking temperature

   Now select the drinking temperature you want for your baby. You can choose from the following temperature levels:

   • 37 °C (breast milk)
   • 40 °C
   • 45 °C
   • 50 °C

   When using pre formula, follow the manufacturer’s instructions (see packaging).

   The device now starts heating the contents of the baby bottle fully automatically.

   Note

   Place it on a level surface

   During warming, it is important that the bottle warmer stands on a level surface (e.g. a table). Only then can it be guaranteed that the displayed temperaturematches the actual temperature of the contents.

   As soon as the temperature you have set (37 °C / 40 °C / 45 °C / 50 °C) is reached, the device beeps. The keep-warm function then automatically keeps the baby bottle at drinking temperature until you switch the device off.

   

10. 10

    Step 10: Add the milk powder

    If you use LIINI with breast milk, you can skip this step.

    You can now separate the baby bottle from the bottle warmer and add the milk powder.

    Mixing the powder with the water works best with circular movements. Avoid shaking it vigorously, as this can cause tummy ache in your baby.

    For on the go, we recommend our LIINI® formula dispenser.

    

11. 11

    Step 11: Bon appétit!

    Now you can screw the teat onto your baby bottle.

    The baby bottle is now ready for your hungry baby.

    The LIINI® team wishes you bon appétit! 🙂

    

For the longevity of the device and the safety of you and your children!

How to clean the device properly

Improper handling can pose serious risks. Please therefore follow the instructions below carefully to avoid hazards:

• Cleaning the heating area: Use only special cleaning wipes for baby products (available from specialist retailers) to clean the heating area. We recommend our LIINI® cleaning and disinfecting wipes.
• Cleaning the housing: Wiping the housing of the bottle warmer with a slightly damp cloth is entirely sufficient. For stubborn dirt, you may also use a little washing-up liquid. Make sure that no water can get inside the device. The electrical components and the battery are particularly sensitive to moisture.
• Regular checks: Check your device regularly for signs of damage or corrosion. If you notice anything unusual, or if water has accidentally got into the device, stop using it and contact our customer service immediately.

Limescale on the heating plate

Over time, limescale deposits will appear on the heating plate of LIINI® 3.0. Depending on where you live and how hard your water is, they can be more or less pronounced.

For light deposits, you can remove the limescale with a Scotch-Brite® sponge.

You can apply a little pressure to remove the limescale. The slight scratches are completely normal and affect neither the function of the device nor the stainless-steel heating plate.

For heavier deposits, you can leave some vinegar to work overnight. Usually the limescale can then be removed easily the next day.

You can find replacement seals for the respective adapters in our shop:

Heating plate seal: installation direction

For LIINI® 3.0 to be 100 % leak-proof during warming and not lose any liquid, the correct installation direction of the sealing ring on the heating plate is important.

The correct way to fit the sealing ring is shown in the illustration.

The sealing ring for the heating plate is a wearing part that must be replaced regularly.

Ready to drink quickly.

Reference values

The time it takes to reach the desired drinking temperature depends on various factors:

• Ambient temperature (winter / summer)
• Drinking temperature (37 °C – 50 °C)
• Starting temperature (fridge)
• Bottle size
• Bottle material (plastic / glass)

For this reason, we cannot give you any binding warming times.

Trust is good – checking is better.

Tolerances in warming temperatures

The different temperature levels of LIINI® 3.0 are checked with calibrated temperature measuring devices and adjusted accordingly. Because of the following variables, tolerances of up to +/- 2.5 °C can occur in the warming temperature:

• Bottle material (glass / plastic)
• Ambient temperature
• Water hardness
• Consistency of the breast milk
• Accuracy of your measuring device (follow the manufacturer’s instructions)

Checking the temperature: how to do it right

To create test conditions that are as comparable as possible, we recommend checking the temperature as follows:

1. Measure immediately after the beep.
2. The temperature may only be taken in the middle of the baby bottle.
3. Under no circumstances should meat thermometers or other cheap measuring devices be used to verify the temperature. These devices are not suitable for measuring liquids!
4. We recommend a digital clinical thermometer for the measurement.
5. Tolerances of up to 2.5 °C are unavoidable and do not constitute a product defect.

The causes and the solution to your problem.

Cause 1: Deep-discharge protection

The most important thing first: there is nothing wrong with your device! 🙂

The bottle warmer has switched to protection mode to protect the device from damage to the battery and the circuit board (PCB).

This protection mode can be triggered by the following events:

Protection against deep discharge of the battery

• Standby consumption: The bottle warmer has a standby circuit that ensures the device is activated as soon as the touch area is touched. This circuit needs a minimal amount of energy to respond to the input.
• Electronic control: The control electronics that monitor charging or heating also need a small amount of power when the device is switched off.

Cause 2: Overvoltage, undervoltage and fluctuations in the power supply

• Overvoltage or undervoltage: The bottle warmer is designed for a specific input voltage. If the voltage is too high (overvoltage) or too low (undervoltage), the charging electronics or the battery can be damaged. Overvoltages can overload the circuits and cause irreparable damage, while undervoltages mean that the device either does not charge correctly or the charging time is considerably extended.
• Unstable power supply: Fluctuations in the mains can cause the charging electronics to try continuously to stabilise the voltage. This puts additional stress on the components and leads to inefficient use of energy, which can impair the battery’s service life and reduce the device’s functionality.

   Finally, you can put the anti-slip silicone back on.

   

Done – the device now works completely normally again.

Guideline values for your baby’s food intake.

Regular weighing is important

The amount of milk for your baby depends on its weight – that is why your baby needs to be weighed regularly.

Doctors recommend 6–8 meals within 24 hours.

Example: At a weight of 4200 g, this gives a daily requirement of 700 ml:

• 115 ml per bottle for 6 meals
• 90 ml per bottle for 8 meals

LIINI® stands for quality.

The products carry a warranty of 24 months in total from receipt of the order. Wearing parts are completely excluded from the warranty.

Wearing parts are:

• Battery (the battery of the device has a service life of approx. 500 full charge cycles. After that, the battery still delivers approx. 80 % of its original performance).
• Seals (adapter and bottle warmer)

The warranty is also excluded:

• If the defect is due to improper handling or use of the product that does not correspond to normal use.
• To ensure the longevity and safety of the bottle warmer, it is important that it is used in accordance with the manual and our manufacturer’s specifications. We would like to point out that permanently connecting the battery-powered device to a power source for a longer period, especially overnight, impairs battery performance and service life and greatly increases wear. In such a case, all warranty and guarantee claims are excluded!
• If the defect is due to a malfunction caused by incorrect operation that does not correspond to the instructions described in the relevant user manual.
• If the defect is due to external interference (“third-party intervention”), in particular repairs and interventions by persons who have not been authorised to do so by LIINI AG.
• If the product has been damaged by contact with water / water damage.
• Normal signs of wear and tear do not give rise to a warranty claim.

LIINI AG may fulfil the warranty either by partial replacement (e.g. spare parts such as seals) or by complete replacement with an equivalent product.

To check a warranty claim, the customer must open a ticket in the “Problem with device / defect” category of the ticket system at www.LIINI.ch/support and provide the following evidence:

• Video showing the problem
• Picture 1: front of the device
• Picture 2: back of the device
• Picture 3: underside of the device
• Picture 4: heating plate of the device

If LIINI AG finds corresponding damage to the device (e.g. a misshapen heating plate, atypical scratches or dents, etc.), any warranty is excluded.

By submitting the ticket, the customer confirms that all information is truthful. Should it emerge during the processing of the warranty case that warranty fraud has taken place, LIINI AG reserves the right to take appropriate legal action.

According to the Product Safety Act (ProdSG).
