CANDLE INSTRUCTIONS

SETTING THE TIMER

 

Tapers: To start the timer unscrew the bottom of the candle and insert 2 AA batteries (not included, use alkaline only – do not use rechargeable batteries) positive side up towards the bulb at desired start time. Screw the cap back on the candle. The built-in automatic timer will keep the LED bulb lit for 6 hours, then turn off for 18 hours. For example: If timer is set to 6PM, the candle will stay lit until 12AM and automatically light again at 6PM the following day. The timer will continue to repeat this cycle throughout the life of the batteries. To re-set the timer simply unscrew the cap and remove the batteries. Reinsert the batteries at the new desired start time.

​

Pillars: Different candles require different batteries. Some use 2 AA, 3 AA, or 3 AAA batteries so please check the base of your candle before inserting batteries and ensure they are placed according to the polarity markings. Pillars also come with different switch types: some have a simple On/Off switch with the “On” position activating a 6-hour timer, while others feature an On/Off/Timer switch, allowing you to select continuous light, a 6-hour timer, or completely turn the candle off.

STORING CANDLE

​

Our candles are crafted from real wax. While they are battery-operated, they should be treated as you would a traditional burning candle. High temperatures may cause the wax to soften or melt, while cold temperatures can make it brittle and prone to cracking. Moisture can also damage the internal components of the candle. For best results, store taper candles in their original cellophane packaging and pillar candles wrapped in bubble wrap, keeping them in a dry, room-temperature environment when not in use.

​

LIFE EXPECTANCY 

​

We cannot guarantee any life expectancy with our candles due to the electrical component in them that can stop working over time just like with any other battery operated candle or product and also due to different variables (temperatures, handling, storage method, etc.) that can directly impact the inner workings of the candle and/or overall look beyond our control after they have been received. 

​

However, your Small Town Dusk® candle comes with a 90-day warranty from the time of purchase in case any issues were to arise during that time. Warranty is only valid for candles purchased through us directly (not a retail partner) and proof of purchase must be provided in order to receive replacement.
