Using this UCO beeswax emergency candle is easy. Just remove the lid from the aluminum container and light one or more of the three wicks. You can adjust the number of lit wicks according to how much light and heat you need. Remember to place the candle on a flat and heat - resistant surface to avoid any fire hazards. Keep it away from flammable materials and out of reach of children and pets. After use, put the lid back on to extinguish the flames safely. To maintain the candle, store it in a cool and dry place. This will help preserve the beeswax and ensure it burns well for your next emergency.
