Candle Safety
PartyLite is highly committed to safety, and we recommend that you follow the steps below to ensure the maximum enjoyment of our products.

• NEVER leave a burning candle unattended! Always extinguish the flame before going to sleep or leaving the room.
  
• Snuffing - To prevent wax from spraying and wicks from drifting off. Centre, use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame. Don’t extinguish candles with water as it may cause the wax to spatter or holder to break. If you must blow out a candle, maintain a safe distance and blow gently to prevent spraying.
  
• Metal Clips - Tealights and votive candles have a metal clip, called a sustainer, which is used to hold the wick. Be sure the wick remains centred, and always remove the old sustainer before placing a new votive in a holder.
  
• Tealights – Metal or Clear Cups? - Aluminium cups are recommended for closed-type holders such as tealight houses. Plastic cups can be used in open holders.
  
  
• Centring Wicks - Wicks in votives and tealights may have a tendency to ‘float’ to the sides, particularly if placed on an uneven surface or near a draught. To avoid heating or breaking the container, keep the wick centred. When burning a 3- wick candle, point the wicks toward the centre of the candle.
  
  
• Ingredients – Candles manufactured and sold by PartyLite use food-grade wax. There is no lead in any of our wicks.
  
  
• Children and Pets - Keep children and pets away from burning candles.
  
  
• Wick-Trimming, Matches and Other Materials - Never leave debris in the candle holder.
  
  
• Surfaces and Holders - Place candles on flat, even surfaces, at least one foot away from combustible materials such as curtains. Always burn candles in appropriate, heat resistant holders on heat-safe surfaces.
