1. Quick start guide for the sauna heater
1.1 Check the following before taking a sauna bath:
-The sauna room is suitable for taking a sauna bath.
-The door and the window are closed.
-The sauna heater is topped with stones that comply with the manufacturer's recommendations,
the heating elements are covered with stones, and the stones are piled sparsely.
NOTE: Structural clay tiles are not allowed.
1.2 Operation of the sauna heater controls
Refer to the specific control panel operating instructions.
2. Information for users
Persons with reduced physical and mental capacity, sensory handicap, or little experience and knowledge
about how the device is operated (e.g. children), should only operate the device while supervised or
accoding to instructions given by the persons in charge of their safety.
Make sure that children are not playing with the sauna heater.
2.1 Sauna room
The walls and ceiling of a sauna room should be thermally well insulated. All surfaces that store heat, such
as tile and stone surfaces must be insulated. It is recommended to use wooden panel cladding inside the
sauna room. If there are heat storing elements in the sauna room, such as decorative stone, glass etc., note
that these elements may extend the pre-heating period even though the saunaroom is otherwise well
insulated. (see page 6, section 3.1 Preparing for sauna heater installation)

Inlet vent can be positioned in the A zone. Make sure the incoming fresh air will not interfere with (i.e. cool down) the sauna
heater's thermostat near the ceiling.
The B zone serves as the incoming air zone, if the sauna room isn't fitted with forced ventilation. In this case, the exhaust valve
is installed min 1m higher than the inlet valve.
DO NOT ISTALL INLET VALVE WITHIN ZONE C, IF THE SAUNA HEATER'S CONTROL THERMOSTAT IS
LOCATED AT THE SAME ZONE.

2.3 Preparing for piling the stones
Removing of the supporting bars to pile the stones
Unscrew the bars' mounting screws (2 pcs).
Lift the support bar's locking plate up from its
normal position.
Lift off the support bars.
Pile stones up to the Helo marker.
Reinstall the support bars.
Install the support bars as above in the reversed
order.
Pile the stones so that they cover the
heating elements.
For specific instructions refer to section 2.4 Sauna
heater stones.

5
2.4 Sauna heater stones
Quality stones meet the following requirements:
1. Sauna stones should withstand heat and heat variation caused by vaporisation of the water thrown on
the stones.
2. Stones should be rinsed before use in order to avoid odour and dust.
3. Sauna stones should have an uneven surface to supply a larger surface for the water to evaporate from.
4. Sauna stones should be large enough (intended for large sauna heaters, approx. 80 - 120mm), to allow
good ventilation between the stones. This extends the useful life of the heating elements.
5. Sauna stones should be piled sparsely in order to enhance ventilation between the stones. Do not bend
the heating elements together or against the frame.
6. Rearrange the stones regularly (at least once a year) and replace small and broken stones with new, larger
stones.
7. Stones should be piled so that they cover the heating elements. Do not, however, pile a large heap of
stones on the heating elements. For sufficient amount of stones refer to Table 2 on page 8. Any small
stones included in the stone delivery package should not be placed on the sauna heater, because they
might fall trought the heater's vertical beams.
The warranty does not cover defects resulting from poor ventilation caused by small and tightly packed
stones.
Structural clay tiles are not allowed. They may cause damage to the sauna heater Damages caused by using
structural clay tiles will not be covered by the warranty.

2.6 Heating the sauna
Before turning the sauna heater on, make sure the sauna room is suitable for taking a sauna bath. When
heated for the first time, the sauna heater may emit some odour. If you detect any odour while the sauna
heater warms up, disconnect the sauna heater briefly, and air the room. Then turn the sauna heater back
on.
The sauna heater is turned on from the control panel that has controls for the heating temperature and
time.
You should turn the sauna heater on roughly an hour before you plan to take a sauna bath, so that the
stones have time to heat up properly and the air warms up evenly in the sauna room.
Do not put any objects on the sauna heater. Do not dry clothes on the sauna heater or anywhere
in its vicinity.

6
2.7 If the sauna heater will not heat up
If the sauna heater will not heat up, please check the following:
-The power is on;
- The fuses for the sauna heater are intact;
- Any error messages on the control panel; In case of an error message, please refer to
the control panel operating instructions.
3. Instructions for the installer
THE PERSON INSTALLING THE SAUNA HEATER SHOULD LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE PREMISES FOR THE FUTURE USER.
3.1 Preparing for sauna heater installation
Check the following before installing the sauna heater:
1. The ratio of the heater's input (kW) and the sauna room's volume (m3). Volume/input
recommendations are presented in Table 2 on page 8. The minimum and maximum volumes must not
be exceeded.
2. The sauna room ceiling must be min 1900 mm high.
3. Glass and stone surfaces will extend the pre-heating period. Each square meter of glass or stone ceiling
or wall adds 1.2m3to the sauna room's volume in terms of needed heater input.
4. Check Table 1 on page 8 for a suitable fuse size (A) and the correct diameter of the power supply cable
(mm²) for the sauna heater in question.
5. Conform to the safety clearance around the sauna heater as specified in Table 2 on page 8. There
should be enough room around the sauna heater for maintenance purposes, a doorway etc.
6. If the the heater is integrated in the sauna benches, the bench model must allow lifting of the lower
bench and its frame without tools. The warranty will not cover dismantling and reassembly of sauna
benches.
3.2 Installing the sauna heater
Follow the safety clearance specifications in table 2 and images 3 and 4 on pages 8 and 9 when
installing the sauna heater.
The sauna heater is a free-standing model. The base must be solid, because the sauna heater weighs about
120 kg.
The sauna heater is levelled by the adjustable legs.
The sauna heater is fixed on the floor from its legs by the provided metal fasteners (2 pcs). This will keep
the safety clearances intact during use.
Walls or ceilings must not be clad light-weight cladding, such as incombustible protecting board, because
they may cause a fire hazard.
A single sauna heater is allowed per one sauna room.

7
3.3 Main connection
The sauna heater must be connected to the mains by a qualified electrician and in compliance with
current regulations. Sauna heater is connected with a semi-permanent connection. Use H07RN-F
(60245 IEC 66) cables or a corresponding type. (See Table 1 on page 8) Other output cables (signal
lamp, electric heating toggle) must also adhere to these recommendations. Do not use PVC insulated
cable as a connection cable for the sauna heater.
A multipolar (e.g. 7-pole) cable is allowed, if the voltage is the same. In the absence of a separate
control current fuse, the diameter of all cables must be the same, i.e. in accordance with the front fuse.
The connecting box on the sauna wall should be located within the minimum safety clearance specified
for the sauna heater. The maximum height for the connecting box is 500 mm from the floor, (see
Image 2 on page 8) If the connecting box is located further than at 500 mm distance from the heater,
the maximum height is 1000 mm from the floor.
The sauna heater's heating elements may absorbe moisture from the air during storage etc. This may
cause leakage current. The moisture will evaporate when the sauna heater is heated a few of times. Do
not connect electric supply to the sauna heater via the fault current switch.
Adhere to the effective electrical safety regulation when installing the sauna heater.
3.4 Electric heating toggle
Electric heating toggle applies to homes with an electric heating system.
Sauna heater has a connection (marked 55) for controlling the electric heating toggle. Connector 55 and
the heating elements are simultaneously live (230V).

In other areas, use a heat-resisting box (T 125 °C) and heat-resisting cables (T 170 °C). The connecting
box must be clear of obstacles. When installing the connecting box to zones 2 or 3, refer to the
instructions and regulations of the local energy supplier.
