What Are Infrared Rays?
Infrared is the band of light we perceive as heat. We cannot see this band of light with the
naked eye, but we can feel this type of light in the form of heat. Our sun produces most of
its energy output in the infrared segment of the spectrum. Infrared rays heat your body
without having to heat the air in-between. This process is called conversion.
The infrared is divided into 3 segments by wavelengths measured in microns: Near
Infrared –0.76-1.5 microns; Middle Infrared –1.5-5.6 microns; and Far Infrared –5.6-1000
microns. Among these segments, Far Infrared penetrates organic substances such as the
human body two to three inches so that the warming effect is very uniform.
ARE INFRARED RAYS SAFE?
Because infrared rays are part of sunlight, they are not only safe but also highly beneficial
to our bodies on a cellular level. Health professionals have used infrared heat lamps for
decades to treat muscle and joint problems. In hospital baby care units, incubators are
often equipped with infrared heating systems to keep newborn babies warm.
WHAT IS AN ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD (also known as EMF)?
An Electromagnetic Field is a physical field produced by electrically charged objects. It is
one of the fundamental forces of nature. The field can be viewed as the combination of
an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary charges
and the magnetic field by moving charges referred to as currents. The magnetic field is
measured in milligauss (mG). Our sauna products have been developed to have low EMF.
Our Low EMF carbon heater panels range between an average of 5mG-10mG at about
two inches from the heater panel, our Ultra Low EMF carbon heater panels range between

4
3mG-5mG, and our Near Zero EMF/Full Spectrum models range at less than 3mG (NIR
heaters range at about 5mG-7mG at the same approximate 2 inches)
EMF Levels from Common Homes Sources
After many years and numerous studies on EMF exposure, no government body including
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have established permissible
exposure limits (PEL). Currently, there is no consensus on the potential health hazard from
any exposure to EMF. The mainstream scientific evidence suggests that low-power, low-
frequency, electromagnetic radiation associated with household currents like that of the
infrared sauna does not constitute a short- or long-term health hazard.
DISCLAIMER
The infrared rays emitted by your sauna are reported to offer a wide range of possible
therapeutic benefits based on research completed over the last 40 years from all around
the world. These benefits are presented for reference purposes only and no implication of
infrared saunas creating a cure for or treating any disease is implied nor should it be
inferred. If you have a medical/health condition, are taking prescription drugs, or have
acute joint injuries, please consult with your medical physician before using the sauna.
Persons with surgical implants (metal pins/rods, artificial joints, silicone, or other types of
surgical implants) typically do not experience any adverse effects, but should also consult
their medical physician or surgeon before using the sauna room.

HOW IT WORKS
Infrared Saunas differ from traditional saunas in that they use infrared radiant energy to
directly penetrate into the body's tissue to produce perspiration. Traditional saunas use
steam to heat the air inside the sauna, which then heats your body until you begin to
perspire. In order for this to be effective, temperatures would need to reach in the
upwards of 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Infrared saunas only need a temperature of up to 120
degrees Fahrenheit to obtain the same effect. This lower temperature makes the
environment more tolerable and allows you to breathe easier.
Health Benefits
Because infrared rays penetrate the body through conversion, there is a deep heating
effect in both the muscle tissues and internal organs without putting too much burden on
the heart.
Our body reacts to the increased heating through the natural cooling process of perspiring.
Through the perspiration process, acid and waste residue like toxins, sodium, alcohol,
nicotine, cholesterol, and the potentially carcinogenic heavy metals are removed from the
cells (especially zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc.). The pores of our skin open and
discharge waste products shedding any old skin cells leaving the skin glowing and clean,
with improved tone, elasticity, texture, and color.
Health Benefits Include, But Are Not Limited To:
*Pain relief from Rheumatoid Arthritis *Relaxes muscle spasms *Reduces cellulite
*Increases blood circulation *Clears, rashes, acne *Enhances skin tone
*Cardiovascular conditioning *Reduces stress & fatigue *Removes toxins
Sauna Maintenance
Since infrared saunas do not require hot rocks, water, or steam to operate, they require
very little maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with water –use a damp, soft, and
clean cloth. Do not use any chemical-based cleaning agents as they can be absorbed
into the wood and be released into your sauna during use.

E. Installing the BENCH HEAT EMITTER PANELs and BENCH
1. Slide down the longer of the two BENCH EMITTER PANELs by lining
up its sides with the vertical guides on the RIGHT SIDE WALL PANEL
and LEFT REAR WALL PANEL. Make sure it slides all the way down.
Next, do the same with the short of the BENCH EMITTER PANEL.
Feed the heater cord of the shorter BENCH EMITTER PANEL through
the hole in the longer BENCH EMITTER PANEL and connect it into the
rear wall outlet. Also, connect the heater cord of the longer BENCH
EMITTER PANEL into the rear wall outlet. Then connect the heater
cord coming out of the FLOOR PANEL into the rear wall outlet. Please
note that you will have one extra outlet that will not be used on your
model sauna. (see Figure 12)
Figure 12
2. Now you can install the BENCHES by sliding them over the horizontal
bench guides on the rear wall panels. Make sure to install the
BENCHES with the smooth and finished sides facing up. First, install the
longer of the two BENCHES. Slide it in at an angle as seen in Figure 13.

1. Plug the sauna into the wall outlet.
2. Press the POWER button once. The POWER light will come on, the TIME DISPLAY
will show 90 (minutes), the TEMPERATURE DISPLAY will show 1510F / 660C, and
the control panel will flash.
3. Press the up/down arrows under the TIME DISPLAY to adjust the amount of time you
want the sauna to remain on. Press the C/F button to choose between Celsius and
Fahrenheit. Press the up/down arrows under the TEMPERATURE DISPLAY to adjust
the temperature setting. Once you have set these adjustments to the desired settings,
press the START/WORK button. If you do not press the button for 5 seconds, the
control panel will stop flashing and the set-up values will be memorized. The WORK
and HEAT lights will now be on and the emitters will now be generating heat. You can
either pre-heat the sauna to the set temperature before entering or sit inside the sauna
as the temperature rises to the set temperature. Please keep in mind that you will
increase the time it takes for the sauna to reach the set temperature if you enter the
sauna room before it has reached the set temperature.
4. During your sauna session, set-up time will count down the minutes one by one. You
can use the up/down arrows to adjust the time. If you do choose to adjust the time,
the control panel will flash and the emitters will stop generating heat. Once you set the
time to the desired setting, then press the START/WORK button twice and the control
panel will stop flashing and heat will began coming from the emitters once again.
5. Heating times do vary. Generally, it will take approximately twenty to thirty minutes to
preheat the sauna to the average used temperature range of approximately 118
degrees Fahrenheit / 48 degrees Celsius. When the ambient temperature is low,
heating requires additional time. For the first few times of use, you may use 115

20
degrees Fahrenheit / 46 degrees Celsius as a reference starting point for a time period
of about 20 to 30 minutes (this represents the actual time you are in the sauna at the
desired temperature). As you become more comfortable and familiar with the sauna,
you can increase the temperature and time period according to your personal
preference.
6. When the temperature is at the set-up value, the digital control will maintain the set
temperature. The WORK light will remain on and the HEAT light will turn off. The
emitters will stop generating heat. Once the inside temperature drops approximately 4
degrees Fahrenheit, the HEAT light will turn back on and heat will again be generated
by the emitters. With the digital control, the inside temperature will always remain
around the set-up value.
7. Reading lamps and/or roof lamps and/or color therapy lamps are operated by pressing
the respective buttons located towards the center of the control panel. These lamps
are offered on some models and are not available on all models.
8. Color Lighting can be operated as follows: First, you will need to install the battery.
Once the battery has been inserted into the remote, you are ready to operate the color
therapy lighting system . Press the READING LIGHT button on the sauna control
panel. The white light will come on. While pointing the remote at the ceiling light, you
can press any of the colors on the remote and that color will be displayed. You can
use the SHADE button on the remote to go through a sequence of colors. If you want
to turn the light off during your sauna session, you can press the POWER button on
the remote. Please note: You must be inside the sauna room for the remote to
work.
Please note that the lights and music will remain ON for approximately 15 minutes
when the time on the control panel has timed out.
9. Bluetooth can be used on the sauna room. You first will need to pair your device with
the sauna room. Open your device’s Settings Menu and then locate and open
Bluetooth. You will find “iSauna” or “BT100” or “Bluetooth”. Now you can pair your
device. Once pairing is successful, your device will be connected. Please note that
you must unpair/disconnect from Bluetooth if your sauna model has the optional MP3
Jack at the ceiling and you choose to use the Aux Wire to connect to the speaker
