Safety Guidelines:

To get the best performance and safe use from your altar candles, follow these guidelines:

Storage:

• Store candles horizontally on a flat surface, away from direct sunlight and temperature extremes.
• Use within two years of purchase to maintain quality.

Setting Up:

• Ensure the candle is firmly secured in an upright position on a stable surface.

Wick Preparation:

• Check that the wick is not twisted and stands upright before lighting.
• Trim the wick to approximately 1/2 inch if needed.

Lighting the Candle:

• Use a proper lighting taper or method, avoiding matches or paper that might leave debris.

Relighting:

• Ensure the wax pool is clear of foreign materials before relighting.
• Maintain the wick’s original shape to avoid uneven burning.

Handling Large Flames:

• If a flame becomes unusually large, extinguish it safely.
• Allow the wax to cool before trimming the wick and relighting.

Extinguishing:

• Use a candle snuffer to avoid splashing wax and protect the wick.
• Never blow directly onto the molten wax pool.

Avoiding Guttering:

• Guttering can be caused by drafts or uneven surfaces.
• Use appropriate holders or caps to minimize this risk.

Wax Removal:

• Use hot water to remove wax from metal, glass, or ceramic holders.

Safe Placement:

• Ensure at least two feet of clearance above the candle when burning in confined spaces.

Safety:
