Directions

Step by Step

Peel open - Slowly remove the foil label from the fragrance cartridge using the peel tab. Do not remove or puncture the clear film protecting the fragrance concentrate. This film controls the release of concentrated fragrance ingredients.
Insert refill - Hold the fragrance refill so the word "Glade®" is facing up. Then slide the narrow end of the refill into the warmer unit.
Insert warmer into outlet - Insert into a 120-volt electrical outlet to gently warm the fragrance concentrate in the refill. Within minutes, the fragrance will begin to freshen your entire room.
Insert the plug into the extra outlet - To take advantage of the Extra Outlet feature, simply insert a two-prong, non-grounded appliance that does not exceed 12 amps (1400 watts) into the warmer unit.
Replace refill - As the fragrance cartridge freshens, it begins to dry and crack. When the concentrate is nearly gone it is time to replace the refill.

Questions

Are plug-in air fresheners hazardous to your health?

No. When used according to label instructions, in real life situations, air fresheners are safe. In addition, there is no evidence supporting a significant risk to human health from the use of air fresheners under normal conditions.

I have seen media reports regarding an EPA study? What is this?

Some media reports state that an EPA study suggests using plug-in air fresheners may be hazardous to one's health. According to the EPA, such a statement is neither accurate nor defensible.

Should I be concerned about using plug-in air fresheners?

No. The EPA study does not indicate that using a plug-in air freshener may be harmful to one's health and for anyone to suggest that it does would be distorting the study and taking it beyond its scientific scope.

How are your products regulated?

Consumer specialty products are regulated by numerous federal agencies. Various federal statutes and regulations apply to the manufacture, distribution, use and disposal of these products.

I have read postings on the Internet alleging that Glade® PlugIns® products have been involved in fires. Is this true?

SC Johnson is aware that there have been postings on the Internet that have claimed that our products were involved in fires. It is important that you know that all of our PlugIns® products are safe and will not cause fires. We know this because PlugIns® products have been sold for more than 15 years and hundreds of millions of the products are being used safely.

Because we are committed to selling safe products, SC Johnson thoroughly investigated these rumors. First, we confirmed that no one had contacted SC Johnson to tell us about these fires or to ask us to investigate them. Additionally, we had a leading fire investigation expert call the fire department representative who is identified in one of the Internet postings. That fireman indicated that he has no evidence that our products had caused any fire.

We suspect this rumor may be associated with a past SC Johnson voluntary recall of one of its air freshener products, a Glade® Extra Outlet Scented Oil product that was sold for a short period before June 1, 2002. After discovering an assembly error in a small number of that product, SC Johnson implemented a voluntary recall and provided extensive information about the product to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). After revising the manufacturing process and thorough testing for proper assembly, the Glade® PlugIns® Scented Oil Extra Outlet product returned to store shelves on June 3, 2002. SC Johnson has no knowledge of any credible reports of fire related to this product.

We also know that our products do not cause fires because all of our PlugIns® products have been thoroughly tested by Underwriters Laboratories and other independent laboratories and our products meet or exceed safety requirements. SC Johnson continues to work closely with the Consumer Product Safety Commission to investigate allegations involving PlugIns® products

As a more than 100-year-old, family-owned company, SC Johnson is committed to providing top-quality products that can be used safely in homes and we want to reassure you that PlugIns® products can be used with complete confidence.

Are Glade® PlugIns® made of recycled materials?

Yes, the Glade® PlugIns® refill cartridge is made of 100 percent recycled material. The boxes are also made of 100 percent recycled paperboard.
