Safety Warning for Tealight Candles
Tealight candles are open flames and should be treated with extreme caution. To prevent fire, injury, and property damage, always follow these safety guidelines:
-
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Always extinguish candles before leaving a room or going to sleep.
-
Keep candles away from flammable materials. This includes curtains, bedding, carpets, paper, clothing, and anything else that can catch fire. Maintain a safe distance of at least one foot (30 cm) between the candle and any combustible item.
-
Use a proper candle holder. Always place tealight candles in a heat-resistant, non-combustible holder specifically designed for candles. The holder should be stable and wide enough to contain any wax that might spill. Never place a tealight directly on a wooden surface, plastic, or any other flammable material.
-
Keep candles out of reach of children and pets. Curious hands and paws can easily knock over a burning candle, leading to a fire.
-
Do not burn candles in a drafty area. A draft can cause the flame to flicker and create a taller, unstable flame, increasing the risk of fire. It can also cause the candle to burn unevenly.
-
Trim the wick. Before lighting, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch (6 mm) to ensure a steady, controlled flame. A long wick can cause the flame to be too large and produce soot.
-
Extinguish candles properly. Use a snuffer to extinguish the flame. Make sure the wick is fully extinguished and cool before handling the candle.
-
Avoid handling a hot candle. Never move or touch a burning or recently extinguished candle until it has cooled down. The wax and the metal cup can be very hot and cause burns.
- Ensure good ventilation. Burning candles consume oxygen. In a small, unventilated space, this can be a risk, although it's a minor one with a single tealight. Ensure there is some airflow in the room.
By purchasing this item, you acknowledge and accept the inherent risks associated with the use of open-flame candles. The seller is not responsible for any damages to property or persons that may arise from the use, misuse, or failure to follow fire safety guidelines.
