1. QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE - SANARIUM CONTROLLER
The KLAFS SANARIUM controller enables you to operate your SANARIUM quickly and easily.
There are numerous pre-programmed standard programs available for each bathing mode.
Any changes made to the standard program settings are saved in a custom program (last
setting). There is a custom program for each bathing mode.
Only operate the touchscreen with your fingers.
Operating the touchscreen with hard objects will leave scratches on the screen's surface
or damage the screen.
Entering and changing settings will be quicker if a short pause of around
0.5 seconds is left between presses.
After five minutes of non-use, the backlighting will gradually start to dim and eventually
switch off fully.
If you touch the display while it is dimmed or switched off, the backlighting will switch
on first. You will then be able to operate the controller via the display.

2. BATHING MODE
All bathing modes in your KLAFS SANARIUM have been designed to improve your
general health and well-being.
However, you should still take into account any pre-existing health conditions when
choosing your bathing program.
This includes:
DTemperature
DRelative humidity
DInfrared heat (optional)
DBathing time.
Choose your bathing program according to its length and your condition. You
should end the session and leave the cabin if you start to feel unwell.
2.1. Sauna
Sauna
with temperatures of 85 - 100 °C and a low relative humidity.
SaunaPUR (option only available with SANARIUM B and SANARIUM M)
KLAFS' development brings back the tradition of Finnish stone steam baths.
With around 60 kg of olivine stones in the sauna heater, the sauna baths are even more
comfortable, and the heat infusions are more intensive. Using the SaunaPUR, you can experience
the feeling of an authentic Finnish sauna.
The sauna must be pre-heated to 70 - 85 °C. When the bathing session begins, the sauna heater
is switched off using the SaunaPUR function.
The slowly decreasing temperature is counterbalanced by regular heat infusions. Using the new
bathing mode, it is possible to bathe in a sauna without switching noises and with reduced
electromagnetic radiation.
Warm air bath
with a particularly mild climate, temperatures of 45 - 60 °C and a relative humidity of up to
approx. 20%.

2.2. SANARIUM
Soft steam bath
a gentle and humid bath with temperatures of 48 - 60 °C and an absolute humidity of up to
72 g/m3.
Tropical bath
with temperatures of up to 75 °C and an absolute humidity of up to 72 g/m3.
The temperature and the absolute humidity are controlled by a microprocessor controller in both
bathing modes.
Aroma bath
with the same climate settings as the soft steam bath, plus evaporation of premium-quality herbal
extracts and scents. This enhances the effect of the soft steam bath.
2.3. InfraPLUS (optional)
Infrared heat
with ambient temperatures of 20 - 40 °C and variable intensity of 1 - 3 for the back heater
(41 - 43 °C).
You can also set the back heater to heat for between 10 - 30 minutes.

5. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR INFRARED EMITTER
Note the following information before using infrared emitters.
DDo not use the infrared cabin within 24 hours of being exposed to UV radiation from
an artificial source or sunbathing.
DConsult a doctor before using the infrared heat cabin if you are at risk of overheating
due to circulatory issues or if you suffer from cardiovascular diseases or diabetes.
DSeek medical advice to avoid triggering erythema ab igne as a result of exposure to
infrared radiation. Do not expose yourself to the radiation again if the erythema
becomes chronic (the skin stays red for longer than one day) or if reticulated colour
changes remain after regular exposure to infrared radiation.
DDo not use the infrared cabin if you have reduced sensitivity to heat, have consumed
alcohol or have taken sedatives.
6. GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read and observe the operating instructions and safety precautions before commissioning.
DDisconnect the controller from the mains before opening the controller housing.
DThe controller may only be connected to the mains by a locally authorised electrician.
DOnly connect the sauna and SANARIUM units directly to the mains via a fixed
connection in accordance with VDE regulations. In the connecting feed line, use a
residual-current circuit breaker InNv0.03 A with a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
DPlease contact KLAFS customer service in case of a fault.
DRemote operation (remote power-on unit): Setting, controlling and/or adjusting the
controller using a command or a remote control unit that is outside the range of vision
of the sauna heater. Remote operation (remote power-on unit) may be used only
together with the safety-contact switch (SCS) or the BONATHERM under-bench heater.
DOnly use original KLAFS spare parts.
DUnapproved changes to the controller are not permitted.
DInstall the controller in accordance with the installation instructions.
DElectrical wiring inside the cabin and the cabin walls must have silicone insulation.
DBefore commissioning the controller, always make sure that there are no flammable
objects near the sauna heater or infrared heater in the cabin. RISK OF FIRE
DDo not use the sauna to dry your washing.

DNever use undiluted essential oils. Only use the indicated concentration (approx. 20 -
30 drops of oil in one litre of water).
DOnly use KLAFS essential oil extracts.
DNever store the bottle containing the essential oil inside the sauna cabin.
DRegularly check the sauna heater for damage.
DNever pour herbal extracts, used in SANARIUM mode, directly into the evaporator.
Outside of the cabin, fill the aroma cup a quarter full with water and add the herbal
extracts drop by drop in accordance with the instructions on the bottle. Then re-attach
the aroma cup to the steam outlet.
DCheck the heater for flammable objects before restarting the timer or switching on the
heater via a separate remote activation system.
DThe unit can be used by children over eight years of age, by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities and by people who lack
experience/knowledge in using it provided that they are supervised while doing so
and/or have been shown how to use the unit safely and understand the potential risks
involved. Do not allow children to play in the unit. Children should not clean the unit or
carry out basic maintenance on it without supervision.
