Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Yankee Candle, ensure the jar is placed away from drafts, which can cause uneven burning or excessive soot. Before each lighting, trim the wicks to approximately 3-5mm to maintain a steady flame height. When you first light the candle, allow it to burn until the wax pool reaches the edges of the glass—typically two to three hours—to prevent 'memory rings' from forming.
Keep the candle out of the reach of children and pets, and never leave it unattended while burning. Once the wax level reaches approximately 1cm from the bottom, it is time to discontinue use to ensure the safety of the glass vessel. Clean the exterior of the glass with a soft, dry cloth if it gathers dust to maintain the vibrant look of the hand-illustrated label.
