Dear customer
You have purchased a high-quality technical
device with which you will have years of sauna
fun. This sauna control unit was designed and
inspected according to the current European
safety standards and manufactured at the facto-
ry in accordance with the quality management
standard DIN EN ISO 9001:2000.
This detailed installation and operation manual
has been prepared for your information. Please
observe in particular the important notes and
the information on electrical connection.
We wish you exhilarating recreational experience
and lots of fun with your sauna!
Intended use
This sauna control unit is exclusively intended
for the control of the sauna heater in a sauna
cabin.
Any other use over and above the intended
purpose is not considered as appropriate use!
Compliance of the standard operation, mainte-
nance and repair conditions is also an element
of appropriate use.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
deviating, unauthorized alterations and any re-
sulting damages: the initiator of these changes
bears the full risk.
General information
Please check whether the unit has arrived in per-
fect condition. Any transport damages should be
immediately reported to the freight forwarder
delivering the goods or you should contact the
company that shipped the goods.
Please note that you will only be able to achieve
an optimum sauna climate if the cabin with its air
intake and ventilation, the sauna heater and the
control unit are aligned to each other.
Please observe the information and stipulations
made by your sauna supplier.
Sauna heaters heat up your sauna cabin using
heated convective air. Here, fresh air is drawn
in from the air intake which, when heated, rises
upwards (convection) and is then circulated
within the cabin. Part of the used air is pushed
out through the vent in the cabin. This creates a
typical sauna climate which can achieve temper-
atures of approx. 110°C measured directly under
the ceiling of your sauna, dropping in temper-
ature to approx. 30-40°C towards the oor. It is
therefore not unusual to measure temperatures
of 110°C on the temperature sensor hanging
over the heater, whilst the thermometer hanging
on the sauna wall, approx. 20-25 cm under the
cabin ceiling, only indicates 85°C. The bathing
temperature generally lies between 80°C and
90°C in the area of the upper bench when the
temperature is set to maximum.
Please note that the highest temperatures are
always generated over the sauna heater and that
the temperature sensor and the safety limiter
must be mounted there in accordance with the
control unit installation instructions.
When heating up for the first time, you may
notice a slight smell caused by evaporating
lubricants used in production processes. Please
ventilate your cabin before beginning your
sauna bath.

General safety precautions
• This device can be used by children aged
8 upwards and by persons with physical,
sensory, or mental disabilities, or who
have inadequate experience and knowl-
edge if they are supervised or if they have
received adequate instruction in how to
use the device safely and understand the
associated risks. Children may not play
with this device. Children may not clean
or carry out any user maintenance if un-
supervised.
• Children are to be supervised in order to
make sure that they do not play with this
device.

Attention: It is forbidden to install
the control box in a closed switch cabinet
or behind a wooden panelling!
• The electrical installation may be done
only by a qualied electrical technician.
• You must comply with the regulations of
your power supply company and applica-
ble VDE regulations (DIN VDE 0100).

WARNING: Never attempt repairs or
installations yourself, as this could result
in serious injury or death. Only a qualied
technician may remove the housing cover.
• Please note the dimensions in the assem-
bly instructions, especially when installing
the temperature sensor. The temperature
above the oven is critical for the temper-
ature setting. The temperature can be
held within operating parameters and
a minimal temperature gradient inside
the bench area of the sauna cabin can be
achieved only if unit is assembled correct-
ly.
• The device may only be used as intended
as a control unit for sauna ovens up to 9
kW (up to 36 kW when combined with a
contactor box).
• Completely disconnect the control unit
from the electrical circuit, i.e. ip all circuit
breakers or the main circuit breaker during
each installation or repair.
• Please note the safety and installation
information from the sauna oven manu-
facturer.
• Always heed the specications and in-
structions of the cabin manufacturer, too.
• If control units with remote con-
trol options* are used, protection
against activation when the heater is
covered is required. (e.g. cover protec-
tion Type 1-5 or S-Guard).
*Telecontrol = setting up, controlling or adjusting a
unit by a command that can be given out of view
of the unit by means of transfer media such as tele-
communication, audio technology or bus systems.

Attention!
Dear customer,
according to the valid regulations, the
electrical connection of the sauna heater
and the control box has to be carried out
through the specialist of an authorized
electric shop
We would like to draw your attention that
in case of a warranty claim, you are kindly
requested to present a copy of the invoice
of the executive electric shop.
When designing the cabin ensure
that the external exposed glass surfaces
only reach a maximum temperature of
76°C. If necessary, protective features
need to be tted.

Installation of the control unit
Wall installation
The control unit may only be mounted outside
the sauna cabin. It is advisable to select the out-
side wall of the cabin to which the sauna heater
is xed from the inside as mounting position. If
ductwork is already provided for electrical in-
stallations then the position of the control unit
is predetermined by that. Please follow the in-
structions for installation:
Fig. 1
1. The 3 mm diameter boreholes for the sup-
plied wood screws 4 x 20 mm are drilled
according to the dimensions shown in Fig. 3
+ 3.1.
2. Insert one of the wood screws into the top
center hole. The control unit is hooked onto
this screw. Therefore, leave the screw out by
approx. 3 mm (Fig. 3.2).
3. Hook the control unit onto the 3 mm protru-
ding screw in the upper mounting hole.
Insert the supplied rubber grommets into
the openings at the rear wall of the housing
and insert the connecting cable through the-
se openings.
Fasten the housing bottom at the two bot-
tom openings (Fig. 4) rmly to the cabin wall.
