SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY & OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
1. Read and follow all instructions carefully.
2. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed.
3. Do not allow children to use the sauna unless they are closely supervised at all
times.
4. Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercise. Wait at least
30 minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.
5. Excessive temperature has a high potential for causing fetal damage during the
early months of pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should contact
their physician prior to using the sauna.
6. Persons using medications, suffering from obesity or with a medical history
of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or
diabetes should consult a physician prior to using the sauna.
7. Always stay hydrated while using the sauna.
8. Never use a sauna under the inuence of alcohol or drugs.
9. Beware of exhaustion and sauna usage.
10. Avoid touching the surface of the heaters behind wood frames as they will be
hot and may cause burns.

CAUTIONS
All natural wood articles have variations in the color, grain, and
irregularities such as knots, and ne cracks. These characteristics
are a part of the natural beauty of the wood, and in no way should be
considered defective.
1. DO NOT use any type of cleaning agents on the interior of the sauna.
2. DO NOT stack or store any object on top of or inside the sauna.
3. If the power supply cord becomes damaged ensure power is off, cable is unplugged
and retailer is contacted.
4. Altering or tampering of any electrical connections on the power supply will void the
warranty.
5. Dry your hands before handling electrical controls. Never unplug the power cord
or adjust the controls with wet hands or when you have wet bare feet. A danger of
electrical shock exists.
6. DO NOT attempt any repair without consulting Alpine Spas rst. Unauthorised repair
attempts will void warranty.
7. Unplug the sauna from the wall outlet before cleaning DO NOT use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleansers inside the sauna. Use a clean damp cloth for cleaning.
8. Always unplug your sauna from the wall outlet before servicing.
9. Please contact Alpine Spas for replacement parts if required.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
1. Your sauna can be plugged into a regular house socket but will draw close to 10A. Try
to plug into a electrical house circuit that does not share other large appliances.
2. Install the sauna on a hard, level surface.
3. If the oor surface is damp or cold, install a form of insulation between the bottom of
the sauna and the ground such as rubber matting.
4. Do not store ammable objects or chemical substances near the sauna.
5. The sauna must be placed indoors and in a dry area. Excess moisture will cause
damage to the interior and exterior of the sauna.
6. We recommend 2 persons to install the sauna.

Place the left and right side panels onto the oor panel one
at a time, aligning them with the back panel. With a side panel

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Install the bench seat over the bench heater and x each
side down using 2x 4*40mm screws. A long screw driver is
required to screw downwards as the back panel heater can
get in the way.
5.

13
Insert a glass panel into the groove slot provided along
the edges of the bottom panel and the side panel. Add
the plastic trim onto the glass and centre it to allow 1cm
at the top and bottom of the panel as to not interfer
with the groove. Cutting the trim may be required. Insert
another glass panel into the remaining slot and plastic
trim. Repeat for other side.
6.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Place the top roof panel onto the sauna while
feeding the power cables up through the openings
provided. Gently slot the roof over the glass
panels.
Note that if the roof does not sit down ush, the
plastic trim may be intereng and either needs to
be adjusted or trimmed down.

ush, screw the
top roof panel

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Install the front glass door using the hinges
provided. This step takes extra care and two
people are required. Screw in the hex screws
lightly and then have the second person hold the
door as high up as the hinges will allow, then screw
them in tight. This may take some readjustment to
have the door open smoothly.
9.

Attach the door handles together (through the
glass door frame) using the 6*75mm door screws
provided. The wooden handle should be on the
inside of the door (inside the sauna) to avoid it
getting hot.

Place the wooden protective covers over the glass side
of the front heaters. Align the cover so that the bottom
is ush with the bottom of the heater (this will allow for a

Connect the front heaters to the sauna at the front
left and right of the glass (on the inside) by joining the
corresponding plugs together (gure E).
