GETTING STARTED: 4-Step User Instructions

*** Note ***

The objective is to safely and precisely set the candle wick height, securely attach the removable candle cap to the bottle, fill the bottle with water, and add the correct amount of fuel.

Step 1 of 4: Inspect and Rinse the Bottle

Bottle Inspection: Hold the bottle up to a light source and inspect it closely from top to bottom for any signs of damage, such as cracks or chips. If you find any damage, however minor, do not use the bottle. Bottle Rinse: Rinse the inside of the bottle with warm or cold water. No need to dry the inside afterward.

Step 2 of 4: Set the Wick Height

Setting the correct wick height is essential for a well-functioning Belgium bar bottle candle. Wick Height: Position the wick inside the wick holder so it extends extends 1-2mm above the holder. This wick height will produce the ideal flame height of approximately 1.5cm. To adjust, gently push or pull the wick from underneath the wick holder. 

Caution: Do not exceed a 2mm wick height, as this will cause the flame to 

stretch and produce smoke. Caution: Take care not to pull the wick entirely 

out of the wick holder when making adjustments.

Refer to the illustration below for guidance.

Step 3 of 4: Placing the Cap Candle on the Bottle

Cap Candle Placement: Now that the wick height is set, place the cap candle onto the bottle. Ensure it meets these criteria: 1. It sits perfectly flat against the bottle mouth 2. It moves slightly from side to side on the bottle mouth. 3. The wick material is straight. 

Mark the Wick Position

Now that the wick is set to the correct height and the cap candle fits properly on the bottle, follow these steps to mark the wick position on the bottle: 1. With the candle cap on the bottle, use a marker pen to draw a mark on the outside of the bottle, approximately 2cm below the end of the wick inside. 2. Once marked, remove the candle cap and set it aside. 

Refer to the illustration below for guidance. 

Final Step 4 of 4: Fill the Bottle with Water and Lamp Oil

Water Filling: Using a spouted jug or beaker, tilt the bottle slightly and slowly fill it with water. Stop filling once the water level reaches the pen mark on the outside of the bottle. Filling slowly and precisely will help ensure success. 

Refer to the illustration below for guidance.

Lamp Oil Filling

Add Lamp Oil: Drip a small amount of lamp oil into the bottle, leaving about a 1cm empty space at the top of the bottle neck.

Check Wick Height: Confirm that the wick is set to the correct height within the wick holder, then place the cap candle onto the bottle. Allow 20 seconds for the wick to absorb the lamp oil and then light the candle.

Observe Flame: Observe the flame as it stabilises. Adjust if necessary.

Adjust Wick Height (if necessary): Adjust the wick height to achieve the ideal flame height of around 1.5cm. Warning: Ensure the cap candle has fully cooled before adjusting the wick height.

How to Refill the Bottle Neck with Lamp Oil
Prepare Candle: Place the extinguished candle on a hard, flat surface. Remove the cap candle and set it aside. Refill: Add lamp oil to the bottle neck, again leaving about 1cm of empty space at the top. Replace Cap Candle: Confirm the wick height is set correctly and return the cap candle to the bottle. Warning: Ensure the cap candle has fully cooled before handling.

*** Notes ***
Empty Space: Leaving empty space at the top of the bottle neck helps the candle breathe properly and function as intended. 

Ideal Flame: The ideal flame burns steady and calm, without stretching or erratic movement. 

Pouring Lamp Oil: For precise pouring, use a small plastic spouted medicine cup or similar type vessel. The smaller the vessel, the easier and more accurate the pour. 

Excess Lamp Oil: If the bottle is overfilled with oil, use a twisted piece of kitchen roll to absorb the excess. Warning: Dispose of used kitchen roll safely, out of reach children and pets.
