Instructions for Using Lampe Berger

  1. Remove the openwork shade and the cap.
  2. Away from any source of heat, fill your lamp two-thirds full with Lampe Berger fuel. Clean the exterior of the lamp of any fuel.
  3. Insert the wick of the burner into the lamp and position the base of the burner evenly into the lamp opening. Put the cap back over the burner. Allow the wick to draw fuel into the burner for about 20 min.
  4. Remove the cap and light the burner with a match or lighter. Do not replace the openwork shade. After 2 minutes (sometimes a little longer the first time it is used) blow out the flame. Your Lampe Berger is now operational.
  5. Replace the openwork shade. Do not touch the burner.
  6. To extinguish the Lampe Berger, remove the openwork shade (which will be hot), place the cap on the burner and replace the shade.
25 to 40 minutes of use is sufficient for a 1,000 to 1,400 cubic foot room.

Helpful Hints

  1. Remember that the lamp works after the flame is extinguished. The flame is to heat the stone and needs to be blown out after 2-3 minutes.
  2. The burner should last one to two years or approximately 250 lightings.
  3. Once in a while you will come across a stubborn burner that will not remain hot after the flame is extinguished. If the burner is new, remove it from the lamp and place it on paper towels to let it dry out completely. This will usually take 24 hrs. Then go through the new burner process again by allowing the wick to soak for 20 minutes before lighting. If the burner is old, it probably needs replacing. Lampe Berger guarantees the burner so if you cannot get it to work, return it to the retailer for a replacement.
  4. You can change fragrances by letting the wick dry on a paper towel. It is okay to go from fragrance to fragrance without drying the wick, the fragrance will blend until the fuel in the wick is used.
  5. Do not use any other type of lamp fuel in Lampe Berger Lamps.25 to 40 minutes of use is sufficient for a 1,000 to 1,400 cubic foot room.
