Safety guidelines

How to use

Light the incense stick for a few seconds and blow out the flame. Place the incense in a holder on a non-flammable surface. Do not touch hot ashes and discard the ashes after it is completely cooled down.

Caution

Use only in well-ventilated places. Avoid contact with inflammable materials. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not inhale the smoke or leave the incense stick unattended while burning. Always use with an incense holder.

Important instructions

• Ensure plenty of space above and around the stick incense or cone, away from shelves, walls, and any heat sources.
• Place one incense stick or cone on a heat resistant incense holder. Ensure that it will not be damaged by falling ash.
• Keep away from flammable materials and polished or painted surfaces which may be damaged by fragrance oils.
• Light the tip of the stick incense or cone. Once lit, extinguish the flame immediately to allow the incense to smolder.
• Burn one stick or cone at a time.
• Use only in well ventilated places.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Do not directly inhale the smoke.
• Do not ingest.
• Do not leave a burning incense stick or cone unattended.
• Allow burnt stick incense or cone to cool sufficiently before disposing of it.
• Those with fragrance sensitivities should use this product with caution.

Candle care

• The making of candles is an art as well as a science. A precise integration of the parts that add up to the sum of a luminous beauty.
• Maroma's candles are 100% hand crafted. People, not machines, make Maroma's candles special.
• Like people, candles also respond well to attention. Always keep a pillar candle of any size or diameter burning for a longer time when first burning it, to ensure good, even burning thereafter. Check the wick and help it to remain straight and centred by using a knife to gently coax it to the centre.
• Container candles take much less time for the top part of the wax to melt. Our container candles are all made of vegetal wax which is softer than paraffin wax, have a lovely smoke free burning and the wicks are self trimming. As the top wax melts quickly, help the wick to remain centred in the same way as for pillar candles.

Warning

• Always leave at least 10cm between burning candles.
• Burn the candle out of reach of children and pets.
• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Do not burn candles near anything that can catch fire.
• Place on a suitable holder to contain wax spills and only place on heat resistant surfaces. Keep free from secondary wicks such as matches and other debris, and away from other heat sources and out of draughts, to avoid flaring. Other heat sources such as a fireplace or heater can also cause the candle to topple, and draughts can blow flammable items onto the candle.
• Trim the wick to 10mm before use.
• Remove all packaging and labels before use.
• Burn in a vertical position.
• Never place on top of televisions or stereos.
• Do not move while alight. Allow cooling time before moving.
• Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
• Extinguish the candle immediately if it smokes, flickers repeatedly, or the flame becomes too high.
• Extinguish using a snuffer or the back of a metal spoon, taking care not to damage the wick. Never use liquid to extinguish.
• Never allow the candle to burn down to the base. Leave 20mm of wax remaining.
