When using or setting up a pre lit Christmas tree, it is necessary to take and ensure safety measures to avoid dangers and hazards. The following are a few safety tips when using a prelit Christmas tree.
- Check strings of lights for frayed wires, broken lamp holders, or cracked lamp holders when removing them from storage. You should replace any damaged light strings with new, UL-listed strings.
- The user manual or the tag near the plug on a string indicate how to connect multiple strings of lights.
- Pre lit Christmas trees should be decorated moderately. A flammable tree can be made more flammable by overusing combustible decorations.
- When using electrical decorations, make sure that you follow manufacturer instructions.
- Lighting candles is not a good idea, and you should never leave burning candles unattended.
- Before you leave the room or go to sleep, make sure candles are completely out and their wicks are not glowing.
- Light candles with care and make sure kids are not left unattended in these rooms.
- Candles should not be placed near curtains, bedding, window treatments, or walls or combustible materials such as wallpaper, curtains, and paper.
- Candles should not be displayed in a child’s or pet’s reach. Candleholders should be sturdy and non-combustible, so that dripping wax remains contained.
- Candles should always be kept out of reach of children, as well as matches and lighters, and you should always blow out all lit candles before leaving the house or going to bed.
- When you leave the house or go to sleep, always turn off the lights on your Christmas tree.
- Handle the pre lit Christmas tree with gloves and wash your hands before you eat or snack.
- Make sure children don’t play with your pre lit Christmas tree. Make sure your children wash their hands before eating or snacking.
