Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Remove all packaging materials from the candle.
- Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, children, and pets.
- Ensure the wooden wick is centered and upright.
Compatibility:
This candle is designed for general home use. It is compatible with most indoor environments. Avoid placing it near open windows or air conditioning vents where drafts can disrupt the flame and wax pool.
Care:
- First Burn: Allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface of the candle (to the edges of the jar) during the first burn to prevent tunneling. This may take 2-3 hours.
- Wick Trimming: Before each use, trim the wooden wick to approximately 1/4 inch (6mm). This helps to ensure a clean, steady burn and prevents excessive smoke or flickering. If the flame becomes too high, extinguish the candle, let it cool, and trim the wick.
- Extinguishing: Use a snuffer or carefully blow out the flame. Do not move the candle while it is lit or the wax is still hot and liquid.
- Storage: Store the candle with the lid on in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fragrance.
- Cleaning: Once the candle is fully used, the glass jar can be cleaned and repurposed.
