• Remove all packaging before lighting.
• Place on a protected, heat-resistant, dry surface, away from anything that can catch fire, and out of reach of children and pets. Use holders designed for the particular candle style.
• Trim wick(s) to 1/8" before lighting.
• If smoking occurs, blow candle out. Trim wick(s), remove trimmings, and relight.
• Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches, or any combustible material. Keep the wick centered. Avoid drafts.
• Keep burning candles within sight at all times.

Jars

• Handle with care; glass containers are fragile. Avoid glass-to-glass contact when removing or replacing the lid. Do not use if cracked, chipped or scratched. Do not refill with wax.
• Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the jar. The jar may become hot. Handle carefully.
• To minimize wax left on the sides of the jar, burn 3 hours at a time; it is normal for some wax to be left, the amount varying per color, fragrance and burning conditions.
• Prevent possible heat damage to the counter/surface by discontinuing use when 1/2" of wax remains.
• Extinguish carefully before replacing the lid.

Pillars

• When wax pool reaches the candle’s edge, extinguish flame and allow candle to harden before relighting. This will prevent dripping.

Tapers

• To prevent possible dripping: avoid drafts, excessive vibrations or nearby heat sources.
• Candle (hurricane) lamps may cause dripping due to the build up of heat. We suggest using bobeche, decorative accessories designed to catch dripping wax.
• Be sure tapers are straight, and set firmly in their holders.
• Trim the taper's wick to 1/8" before lighting.

Scented Tea Lights

• Do not burn in an enclosed space like a potpourri pot. For this purpose use Yankee® Tart® Warmers (unscented tea lights), and be sure the burner is well-ventilated.
• If wick smokes or builds up carbon, extinguish flame and remove the carbon before relighting.

Samplers

• Burn only in an appropriate holder. Do not burn freestanding.

Wax Potpourri Tarts

• Place one or more Tarts® in a dry potpourri pot, and light the unscented tea light candle beneath. We recommend using Tart® Warmers, which burn with a low, controlled flame, ideal for potpourri pots. When melted, the Tart® will release its wonderful fragrance.
• To change fragrances, use a potholder to pick up the potpourri pot and pour the liquid wax into a lined wastebasket. Or, you may harden the wax in a freezer, and pop it out into the palm of your hand.
• Electric potpourri pots may overheat the wax, and are not recommended. Use a well-ventilated, candlelit potpourri pot, without a lid. The pot should have at least a 2-1/2" top opening.
