How to Use the NUK Nipple Shield:
Wash your hands and clean your breast with a damp cloth.
Slightly moisten the shield with water or breast milk for better adhesion.
Fold back the contact surfaces, centre it over the nipple, and adjust the shield to your preferred breastfeeding position.
After use, clean your breast to remove any milk residue and avoid germ build-up.
Cleaning and Hygiene Tips:
Wash immediately after use with warm water and mild detergent.
Disinfect daily by boiling or using a steam steriliser like the NUK Vario or Micro Express.
Use the included protective container for hygienic storage-place the shield in the lid and close securely to avoid deformation.
