Don’t let your lamp burn completely out of fragrance. This will cause the stone to become extremely hot and either crack or scorch the top of the cotton wick over time.
2. Don’t remove the wire across the top of the stone – it secures the stone to the metal collar and the cotton wick.
3. Don’t remove the stone from the metal collar for any reason.
4. Don’t ever trim or adjust the cotton wick, it may come loose from the stone and will not work properly.
5. Don’t allow your flame to burn longer than 7 minutes. Excessive burning of the stone can result in damage to the stone. Same results as when the lamp burns completely out of fragrance repeatedly.
6. Don’t leave the closed metal cap off the stone when the lamp is not operating. The alcohol will evaporate and the remaining essentials (fragrance) will clog the ceramic burner stone.
7. DO NOT USE “lamp oil” in your fragrance lamp, the wick will be permanently ruined. Effusion fragrance is not oil, nor does it contain any oil.
8. Wick will need to be replaced about every 6-8 months depending on proper usage.
