How to Use

1. Place the diya on a stable, flat and heat-resistant surface. 2. Add a suitable quantity of lamp oil or ghee to the oil bowl without overfilling it. 3. Position clean cotton wicks at the available wick points. 4. Allow the wick ends to absorb the fuel properly. 5. Light each wick carefully using a long matchstick or lighter. 6. Extinguish all flames safely after worship and allow the lamp to cool completely."

Wick Instructions

Use clean cotton wicks of an appropriate thickness. Keep the exposed wick length controlled to avoid an excessively large flame, smoke or soot. Ensure every wick remains in contact with the oil or ghee.

Care Instructions

Allow the diya to cool completely before cleaning. Remove residual oil and wipe it with a soft cloth. Wash gently with mild soap when required and dry immediately. Use a suitable brass cleaner occasionally to maintain its shine.

Brass Maintenance

Brass may naturally darken or develop patina over time due to air, moisture, oil and handling. This is a normal characteristic of brass and can usually be managed through appropriate cleaning and polishing.

Safety Instructions

Never leave the burning diya unattended. Keep it away from curtains, paper, clothing and other flammable materials. Place it beyond the reach of children and pets. Do not move, tilt, refill or clean the lamp while it is burning or hot. Maintain proper ventilation during use.

Placement Instructions

Always place the lamp on a level, heat-resistant and non-flammable surface. Ensure the base is stable before adding oil or lighting the wicks. Avoid placement near edges, fans or strong air movement.
