(HealthDayNews) -- Si la decoración navideña incluye el uso de velas, asegúrate encenderlas de forma segura y de acuerdo con las instrucciones del fabricante.
La Asociación Nacional de Velas de los EE.UU. ofrece los siguientes consejos:
No quemes velas sobre o cerca de cualquier objeto que pueda incendiarse.
Extingue todas las velas antes de abandonar la habitación o antes de ir a dormir.
Corta los pabilos una pulgada antes de encenderlos.
Coloca las velas lejos de ventanas abiertas, ventiladores o corrientes de aire.
No toques o muevas las velas o cirios mientras la cera esté líquida.
No extingas las velas con agua. El agua puede causar que la cera caliente salpique y puede romper el contenedor de cristal de la vela.
Coloca las velas al menos tres pulgadas de distancia unas de otras.
