1. General Caution
• Never leave candles burning unattended.
• Always place burning candles out of reach of children and pets.
2. Placement
• Place candles on a stable, heat-resistant, and non-combustible surface.
• Keep candles away from flammable materials such as curtains, paper, furniture, or clothing.
• Use candle holders that securely hold the candle and can catch wax drips.
3. Distance
• Maintain at least 10 cm distance between burning candles to prevent flames from spreading.
• Do not place candles in drafts or in places where they can be easily knocked over.
4. Lighting and Extinguishing
• Use long matches or lighters to avoid burning yourself on the flame.
• Extinguish candles by blowing them out or using a candle snuffer, not by shaking or blowing with your hand.
5. Flame and Wax
• Ensure the wick is not too long (approx. 1 cm) to minimize soot formation.
• Avoid touching melted wax, as it can cause burns.
6. Use of Scented Candles
• Burn scented candles in well-ventilated rooms to prevent the accumulation of smoke or pollutants.
• Do not use scented candles near sensitive individuals, such as asthmatics or allergy sufferers.
7. Dangers of Overheating
• Extinguish the candle before it burns down completely to prevent overheating or breakage of the candle holder.
8. Safety Precautions
• Always keep appropriate extinguishing agents, such as a fire extinguisher, fire blanket, or a bucket of sand, readily available.
• In case of fire, never pour water on burning candles, as hot wax can splatter.
