WARM UP

Between 1-3 hours depending on the surrounding temperature. Stalagmite shapes may form during the warm up process, these will then melt and the lava will begin to flow. It is normal for the glass to have small air bubbles and moulding scars.

OPERATION

Your Mathmos product will operate best after it has been used four or five times. For the first few times you may see small air bubbles in the lava. Please note the heating time will decrease after several uses.

Please do not leave the product on for more than six hours a day or allow it to overheat; this will prolong the life of the product. Overheating will shorten the life of the product; if it is overheating there will be either only one large bubble at the top of bottle or a lot of very small bubbles.

Never move or shake the lamp when it is in use or still warm, as this causes irreparable clouding.

REPLACEMENTS

When your product has ended its like it will begin to go cloudy, the colours may fade and it will not move as well as it once did. This will happen after approximately 2000 hours in operation. Whether your product has ended its life or when you wish to have an alternative colour combination, visit our website at www.mathmos.com for more information on a replacement bottle or full product. Please note we do not refill bottles. Please on no account open the secure cap and add liquids.
