Operation and Recommendations
1. Set up the desired session temperature and time using the control panel.
(Suggested at 55°C)
2. Allow approximately 10 -15 minutes for the sauna to warm up before beginning
a session.
3. Recommend sauna session is around 30-45 minutes.
4. The heaters automatically maintain the desired temperature inside the sauna.
5. The ceiling vent can be opened at any time for air circulation.
6. Always drink plenty of water before, during, and after a session. Doing so will
replenish lost fluids from the body through perspiration.
7. Take a hot shower or bath prior to the sauna session will further promote
perspiration. However, dry off thoroughly before going into the sauna because
excessive water will stain or warp the wood. A shower after the session is
refreshing and rinsing perspiration from the body.
8. To absorb perspiration and keep the sauna tidy during the session, place a towel
on the bench and floor of the sauna. Keep one towel handy to wipe excessive sweat
from your body.
9. The interior wood is aromatic and adds to the enjoyment of your sauna session. If
you feel the odor is too strong during the first few months of usage, you can wipe
the wood with a damp cloth to minimize the odor.

13
Operation and Recommendations
1. To regulate the temperature inside the sauna during your session, use the roof vent or the door,
by setting it open at an angle.
2. If you need more cooling, simply leave the door open until the air around you feel comfortable.
3. Drink plenty of fluids prior to, during, and after your sauna session.
4. If you take a hot /warm shower or bath before your sauna session, you may perspire more. Try
it with and without bathing or showering first to determine which way you prefer.
5. To utilize the saunas heat therapy effect, give your hair a hot oil treatment while in the sauna.
Put oil or treatment into your hair and wrap it with towel. After the session is over, rinse your
hair thoroughly.
6. Use at least 2-3 towels; sit on one towel folded over several times for added cushioning. Put
another towel on the floor to absorb excess sweat. A third towel draped over the knees may aid
you in comfort and useful to towel off the sweat.
7. Be sure to towel off excess sweat during your session to help the body perspire more freely.
8. To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas while in sauna to help heal
faster.
9. Do not put any lotions or oils on the body or face when using the sauna. This may block the
pores.
10. Shaving your face or legs with a razor while profusely sweating in a sauna yields an
incredibly smooth result without the use of gels or foams.
11. Do not eat anything at least an hour before your sauna session. It is better to go in the sauna
on an empty stomach. You are more likely to feel uncomfortable sitting in a sauna with a full
stomach.
12. To make the most out of your sauna session, work your muscles while in the sauna. Stretch
your arms and legs; massage your neck and feet, etc.
13. You can benefit from the relaxing and soothing effects of a regular sauna session by going to
sleep afterwards. The peaceful and relaxed state rendered by a sauna session will help you
sleep easier and better.
14. At the first sign of cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in boosting
your immune treatment and decreasing the reproductive rate of the viruses. Consult your
physician for the proper treatment and care for this or any other conditions.
15. To treat your ankles and feet more effectively, elevate them while inside the sauna. Any area
that you wish to achieve a specific deep heating effect should be moved as close to one of the
heaters as feels comfortable.
16. After the session is over, do not immediately jump into the shower. Since your body was
heated up during the session, it will continue to sweat even after the heaters are off. Sit in the
sauna with the door open and allow the body to sweat a little more as it cools off. Once you
feel comfortable enough, take a warm (or cool) shower to rinse the sweat off your body
completely.

core temperature to rise above 39°C (102.2°F). Symptoms of excessive hypothermia include dizziness,
lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive hypothermia may include failure to perceive
heat, failure to recognize the need to exit, unawareness of impending hazard, fetal damage in pregnant
women, physical inability to exit the sauna, and unconsciousness.
7. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the sauna session may lead to
unconsciousness.

15. Altering or tampering of any electrical connections on the power supply will void the manufacturer’s
warranty.
16. 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 potential danger of electrical shock exists.
17. DO NOT attempt any repair without consulting the manufacturer first. Unauthorized repair attempts
will void manufacturer’s warranty.
18. All natural wood articles have variations in the color, grain, and irregularities such as knots, and fine
cracks. These characteristics are a part of the natural beauty of the wood, and in no way should be
considered defective.

Cleaning and Maintenance
●Before using your infrared sauna for the first time, clean the inside of the sauna
with a damp cloth. If the smell of the sauna is strong at first, that is normal and
please open the door while the sauna is working. The smell will diminish after a
while.
●Use furniture polish to clean the exterior.
●We recommend placing a soft towel on the floor and on the bench of the sauna to
absorb perspiration during sauna use.
