Pull the perforated part of the film sideways to the left and right to open the package. Take out a stick of hibi and press its top tip against the brown rough surface on the side of the box (the side for striking) at an angle of 45 degrees, and scrape it diagonally down to light it. Hold the stick at its mid-point as it might break easily if you hold the far tip of the stick to strike it. Once the stick is lit, hold it at a slight downward tilt until the flame has spread to the incense stick and the flame extinguishes itself. If you hastily extinguish the flame before it settles, the fire may not spread to the incense stick. It is also possible that the smell of the match may affect the initial fragrance of the incense stick, since the ignition material in the match head has not burned out completely. (However, after a while, the smell of the incense stick will normalize). Lay the stick on hibi’s exclusive mat and enjoy the scent for around 10 minutes. You can place it almost anywgere as the exclusive mat and tray are heat-resistant. If you are concerned, place it on top of the slide cover of the box to ensure safety. Don’t leave the area until the stick is burnt out. Be sure to burn only one stick at a time. Burning more than two sticks at a time is dangerous, as it will cause overheating of the mat.
After using the stick, lift the stick together with the mat and throw away the remaining ash. Using another stick of hibi on the mat with the residual ash may mix scents and you may not enjoy the original scent of hibi.

Be sure to take precautions against fire, and don’t leave it while it is still burning.
Don’t put the stick on the exclusive mat before confirming that its flame has already settled and fire has already spread to its incense part.
It is not edible. Be sure to keep it away from infants.
Avoid storing it in hot and humid places to prevent quality degradation.
