BEFORE LIGHTING

• place the candle on a flat surface, away from any drafts or flammable materials;
• carefully light the candle, preferably using a long lighter;
• cut the wick slightly, ensuring it is at least 1 cm high;
• make sure the wicks are upright. To straighten them we recommend using the candle wick trimmer to push the wick to the optimal position;
• check that the wax is free from any match residue, dust or other materials to prevent the risk of uncontrollable flames.

WHILST LIT

• NEVER KEEP A CANDLE LIT FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS;
• never leave a candle unattended or move it whilst lit;
• if you are using two candles in the same room, keep them at least 15 cm apart.

TO EXTINGUISH

• before extinguishing the flame, check that the wax has melted evenly to the edges of the jar;
• extinguish the candle using an extinguisher, never with liquids or by blowing the flames;
• check that the wicks are not too close to the glass. In such a case, you will need to rework them into an upright position with a wick straightener;
• straighten the wicks into their original position.
