3.3. Product functions
Infrared cabin
Solid cabin made of spruce for the infrared radiation of 2 people.
Resin pockets are not grounds for complaint. This is because resin pockets
often occur in spruce and the depth at which they are located cannot be
determined during sorting.
If they are just below the surface, they break open during heat genera-
tion and "bleed".
The leaking resin can be removed with an acetone rag. If only resin drops
appear, let them cure and then scrape them o󰀨 carefully with a knife.
Infrared control wave.com4 Infra
Control for the dimming of 2 heating circuits each with a maximum of 1.5 kW as
well as the dimming of light and an optional fan.
The control unit only supports the operating mode “Intensity mode”.
sound & light colour light (only version VitaMy 164 S&L)
The sound & light colour light lets music be played via a USB stick and the cabins
be lit with di󰀨erent colours.
The colour of light can be selected manually or di󰀨erent colours can be displayed
in automatic mode.

4. Installation of the VitaMy 164 infrared cabin
Before you start work, check the parts list to see whether all the items have
actually been delivered. If individual items are missing, notify your dealer within
14 days after receipt of the cabin.
For the installation, you will need to have a helper!
We also recommend that the screw holes be pre-drilled.
4.1. Necessary tools
●Hammer and insert wood or a rubber mallet
●Cordless screwdriver with bits for Phillips screws and Torx
●Measuring tape
●Water level
●Drift punch or wooden blocks 12 mm
●Allen 1.5 mm
Pre-drill
60 cm

Check the right angle:
Handle glass with care: Special care must be taken with the edges of
the glass – hardened glass can shatter into small pieces in the event of
impact. Insert protective cushioning (e.g: cardboard box) under the edge
of the glass.

4.3. Cabin installation
Observe the layout “oor plan” on page 39.
Installing the oor frame
Fig. 1: Placing the three oor frame elements
Fig. 2: Connect the oor frame elements
Hit the plastic swallows gently with a hammer at the two corners of the oor
frame until they are ush with the groove of the element.
Use a drift punch or a wooden block so that the plastic swallow is well sunk.

Instructions for installation and use p. 12/40
Wall element installation
Begin the installation of the wall elements with Wall Elements W2 and W3 or W4
and W5 respectively (see the chapter Layout on page 43). The wall elements
are connected with the "multi-clips" with the corner posts.
Make sure that the elements with the opening for the infrared radiators W3 and
W4 are used at the back of the cabin. The lower edge of the IR radiator cut-out
is at a height of 64 cm, with the bevel facing outwards.
Fig. 3: Multi-clips
Corner post
Pre-install the wall elements with the corner posts on the ground and then
put these corners on the oor frame (see Fig. 5, 6 and 7)

EN
Instructions for installation and use p. 13/40
Fig. 4: Connect the wall element with the corner post
Insert the corner post from top to bottom on the wall elements. When doing so,
pay attention to the correct alignment of the "multi-clips" (see Fig. Abb. 4). The
corner post has to be ush with the wall elements.
Fig. 5: Installation on the oor frame
Place a pre-assembled corner on the oor frame, this is connected loosely with
a notch and spring.

Insert the U-prole ush to the glass plate. When doing so, pay attention to the
ush meeting of the proles with the glass on the side where the door will be.
WARNING!
After the cabin has been positioned correctly, glue the U-proles with
silicone or installation glue to the oor.
When installation the two glass plates, you can decide whether the door
should be hinged on the right or left. On the glass, pay attention to the
holes for the ttings of the door.
