Glass Oil Light Instructions
Indoor or Outdoor, Lamp/Candle Oil
We recommend that you avoid inexpensive lamp
oils because they tend to smoke and emit a
stronger odor. Never use kerosene, alcohol,
gasoline, paint thinner or acetone because they
are unsafe.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ
THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR
LAMPOIL CANDLE CAREFULLY.
Please be aware that when
you change types of fuel
sometimes even brands of
lamp oil can damage your
wick and reduce the life
expectancy of it. It might
then be necessary to replace
your wick because the
fibreglass strands can gum
together and no longer
absorb the oil efficiently.
The tops of the fibreglass
strands should be level with
the top of the glass tube, see
figure A. If too low, gently push them up if the wick
is 5 inches or less. For longer wicks, pull the fibres
up very slightly with tweezers.
DO NOT PULL THE FIBREGLASS
STRANDS FROM THEIR TUBE.
ALWAYS KEEP AWAY FROM
CHILDREN & NEVER LEAVE A
FLAME UNATTENDED.
Filling your Candle
Remove the wick with glass tube from your candle,
and insert the funnel provided, holding it loosely in
the candle so air can escape as you pour lamp oil
through the funnel. Fill oil reservoir to no more than
3/4 full for all oil candles and lamps. Gently place
the wick back into the candle.
IMPORTANT: ALLOW ABOUT 30
MINUTES, SO THE WICK CAN
ABSORB SUFFICIENT OIL BEFOR
E LIGHTING.
Wick too low in the glass tube
Although the wick was properly adjusted before
your candle was shipped, you should check it
before use. The wicks typically never need to be
replaced because they are composed of fibreglass
strands, enclosed in a glass tube.
The wick itself does not burn, but draws up oil
through the reservoir so only the oil burns off the
top.
