Preparation Instructions:

1. Boil fresh drinking water and let it cool to about 50°C (122°F). Pour about half of the required water into a clean, sterilized bottle.
2. Add the correct number of level scoops using only the enclosed scoop (1 level scoop per 30 ml of water). Level each scoop with the back of a knife; do not press down.
3. Close the bottle and shake vigorously until fully dissolved, then add the remaining water and shake again.
4. Let it cool to drinking temperature (about 37°C / 98°F) and always test the temperature before feeding.

Important Notes:

• Follow the preparation instructions exactly — the correct dosage always gives your baby the nutrients it needs.
• Use only the enclosed scoop. Incorrect preparation or storage can be harmful to health.
• Prepare each bottle fresh and feed immediately; do not reuse leftovers. Do not warm in a microwave (risk of scalding).
• Once opened, store in a cool, dry place (not the refrigerator) and use within about 3 weeks. Breast milk is best for your baby.

Guide values only; 1 level scoop = 4.5 g. Slight individual variations are normal.
