Multishot safety
Use a stable base and follow the label
Multishot fireworks are designed to fire from a secure, level, fixed base, so setup and distance matter before anything is lit.
Safe setup
Place it on flat, firm ground and brace it if the instructions require extra support.
Lighting advice
Follow the product instructions. Light one firework at a time, at the end of the fuse and at arm's length, using a suitable taper. Never stand or lean over it. Step back immediately.
Distance and supervision
Keep spectators behind the label distance and keep children away from the firing area.
Never move once lit
Do not pick up, reposition, or kick a multishot firework after lighting or after a misfire.
