It is important when installing the dedicated circuit
for your unit not to include a GFCI (Ground Fault
Interuptor) or AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interuptor).
These are often installed in household electrical
setups as a means of surge and arc protection, but
will mistake the power operation of our units for
these and trip the breaker, disrupting sauna use.
Please note if your codes require an AFCI or GFCI,
please install Class C to ensure unit performance.

AMPLIFY CHROMOTHERAPY
Your Amplify comes equipped with chromotherapy lighting. Chromotherapy is the
science of using colors to adjust body vibrations to frequencies that result in health and
harmony. Each color possesses frequencies of a specic vibration, and each vibration is
related to different physical symptoms. Chromotherapy works on various energy points
to help your body re-establish its natural balance.
Chromotherapy Remote
Make sure your chromotherapy remote has a battery in it. You will need to point the
remote directly at the lights to operate your lights.

WARM-UP TIME & USAGE GUIDELINES
The controls are preset to 60 minutes at 165°F (74°C). This is the maximum temperature
setting, as the actual temperature will not reach this during normal use. If the system reads
a temperature exceeding the set temperature, it will deactivate the heaters to bring the air
temperature back down under the limit. Our saunas are based on the infrared wavelength and
not cabin temperature. Allow the sauna to warm-up for at least 30-45 minutes. The sauna heats
up at an average of 1 degree per minute. Follow these steps for proper warm-up:
Step 1: Make sure your sauna is plugged into a dedicated outlet installed by
a certied electrician.
Step 2: Check the settings on the keypad. The default setting should be set to
151°F (66°C) and the timer set to 60 minutes.
Step 3: When turning sauna on for the rst time, ensure each heater is warming up
after a couple of minutes. If they are not, check roof connections.
NOTE: If your sauna is outside or in an unheated garage, sun room, basement, or patio, it may
require additional time to warm the sauna up. Warm time is impacted by the temperature
of the surrounding surface and room. Keep in mind you are required to have an authorized
Sunlighten cover over your sauna if it is outside or exposed to the weather in order to
maintain your warranty.
4-HOUR TIMER MODE
• Turn off the sauna.
• Press and hold the power button until the timer display reads “4h” (~15 seconds or so).
• The unit will now be in “4-Hour Timer” mode and will stay in that mode until it is either
canceled (instructions below) or the unit is unplugged.
To cancel “4-Hour Timer” mode: with the unit off, press and hold the power button until the
display turns on.
RESERVATION MODE
• Turn off the sauna.
• Press the timer up and timer down arrows simultaneously.
• A digit will appear on the timer section of the screen to indicate the number of hours
before the sauna turns on.
• When the timer counts down to “0,” the sauna will turn on for a 60-minute session and
will be set to 151°F (66°C).
To cancel a reservation, press the timer up and timer down arrows simultaneously until the
time display turns off. At this point you can turn the sauna on normally.
WARNING: The full-spectrum heaters are extremely hot.
Touching the heater or wooden frames may cause burns.
Do not place objects on or around the full-spectrum heaters.

SAUNA PROTOCOL
Follow this quick guide for the optimal sauna experience.
PRE SAUNA SESSION
• Hydrate with at least 8 oz (.24 L) of water to prepare your body for an increase in core
temperature.
• Pre-heat for approx. 45 minutes. Depending on room temperature, your sauna will
heat up one degree per minute.
• Use towels to absorb sweat during sessions.
SAUNA SESSIONS
• Begin your session when your sauna reaches 100.4°F (38°C).
• The optimal sauna experience occurs between 100.4°F (38°C) and 129°F (54°C).
• To get your body accustomed to infrared therapy, start with 10-15 minute sessions at
100.4°F (38°C) every other day.
• Gradually increase towards 40-minute daily sessions in the optimal temperature range.*
• Don’t be surprised if you don’t sweat during the rst few sessions.
• Sweating will increase with regular use, removing toxins and leaving you feeling
refreshed and rejuvenated.
• For added intensity, use Pure Sweat amplifying cream to increase sweating,
circulation, and to boost results.
POST SAUNA SESSION
• Drink at least 24 oz (.7 L) of water or electrolyte to rehydrate.
• Dry off with a towel. Cool down naturally or with a refreshing shower.
• After every use, dry off your units’ interior surfaces. Every 2-3 uses, use our Natural Sauna
Cleaner (shop-us.sunlighten.com/collections/maintenance).
*Listen to your body. Be aware of excessive detoxifying. If you begin to feel symptoms
such as nausea, fatigue, or u-like symptoms during your sauna session, discontinue use
immediately. If these symptoms continue, consult your physician.

11
HEALTH & SAFETY
Our infrared saunas operate with the same efcacy in your home as in a medical facility. Like
all professional equipment, you may put yourself at risk if you do not fully understand how
to use the sauna. Infrared sauna use as creating a cure for or treating any disease is neither
implied nor should be inferred. Drinking an electrolyte-replacing water or a sports drink is
strongly recommended before and after use.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
• Never sleep inside the sauna while it is on.
• Do not use harsh cleaning agents on the interior of the sauna.
• Do not stack or store objects on top of or inside the sauna.
• Do not use during an electrical storm, as there is a remote risk of shock.
• Altering or tampering with any electrical connections on the power supply is
dangerous and will void the warranty.
• Do not attempt a repair without consulting Sunlighten rst. Unauthorized repair
attempts will void the warranty.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
ASSEMBLY
Can I assemble my sauna outdoors?
Yes, if you protect it with a Sunlighten sauna cover. If you place your sauna outdoors without a Sunlighten
cover, your warranty will be void. The sauna covers are custom made and may not arrive until after you
receive your sauna. Do not install your sauna outdoors prior to receiving your cover. Doing so will void
the warranty. Check the sauna cover annually for normal wear and replace as needed. Sauna cover
manufacturer warranty is one year. Sauna cover manufacturer warranty is one year. Visit sunlighten.
com/customer-service/guides-and-specs for sauna cover instructions.
How much room is required around my sauna for setup and maintenance?
We recommend 4-12 in. (10-30 cm) of clearance around the back, sides, and 12 inches at the top of
the sauna to access plugs and for general maintenance. Leave at least 4 in. (10 cm) behind the unit to allow
the electronics to cool.
What surfaces can I set my sauna on?
You can set your sauna on tile, concrete, carpet, laminate or wood. Always have your sauna feet installed.
Remember to make sure that your sauna is level regardless of its location for optimal use. If your sauna is
placed outdoors, make sure there is adequate drainage so that water cannot pool around the base of the
sauna. If placed near or on cool surfaces (like concrete and basement walls), warm-up can be impacted.
How do I install Sound Therapy?
Sauna accessories have separate owner’s manuals. Refer to the appropriate manual at sunlighten.com/
customer-service/guides-and-specs.
How do I disassemble if I need to move the sauna?
Refer to assembly sheet and follow the steps in reverse.
USAGE
How long does it take for my sauna to warm-up?
The controls are preset to 60 minutes at 150.8°F (66°C). However, the inside cabin temperature is
not intended to reach this. Our saunas are based on the infrared wavelength and not cabin temperature.
Allow the sauna to warm-up for 45-60 minutes. The sauna heats up at an average of 1 degree per
minute. If located outside or in an unheated garage, additional warm-up time may be required. If you
prefer the sauna hotter, let it warm-up longer.
Can I use my sauna every day?
For most people, daily sauna use is okay after your body has become accustomed to infrared therapy. Drink
increased amounts of water to stay hydrated. Listen to your body and stop your session if you feel any
discomfort.

13
How long can I use it each day?
40 minutes is the recommended session length. See the sauna protocol on pg. 8.
What is the best temperature to use my sauna?
First, it is important to understand that health benefits are a result of efficient infrared emissivity, not air
temperature. Sunlighten saunas are 95-99% emissive to deliver the highest concentration of infrared.
With that, the optimal sauna experience occurs between 100.4-129°F (38-54°C). During your first few
sessions, start at a lower temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) and gradually increase in later sessions. Everyone
has different preferences and tolerances for heat. The most important thing is to listen to your body. Keep in
mind, if you’re sweating at 115°F (46°C) you’re getting the same benets as if sweating at 151°F (66°C).
What is the micron range of the heaters?
The design of a SoloCarbon® heater allows for most of the far infrared wavelength to be near 9.4 microns, which is
the level at which the human body absorbs infrared energy.
Can I touch the heaters?
No. The heaters will be hot, especially the middle, so it is not safe to touch heaters while on or an hour
after use. We don’t recommend leaning anything against the CELLIANT heater fabric. You can lean
against the wood trim or slats if sitting upright to prevent burning yourself or the fabrics. If you find
this uncomfortable, a sauna backrest is a great option.
How much will the sauna cost to run a month?
The sauna runs on the same wattage as a blow dryer and will cost little to run monthly: typically $.20-.50
(15 to 35 pence) per hour. This varies with the model and local utility cost. Your utility company can help you
understand a more exact per hour cost if needed.
Are the EMF levels safe?
Yes. Patented SoloCarbon panels are 100% quality controlled by Sunlighten to ensure the safety and
effectiveness of each individual heater.
What is the wattage, voltage, and amps of my sauna?
See electrical specifications on page 4.

14
MAINTENANCE
How do I clean my sauna?
Sunlighten’s Natural Sauna Cleaner is made specically for use with your sauna. Every 2-3 uses, dampen
a cloth with Sunlighten All Natural Wood Cleaner. Clean glass door and windows with Sunlighten All
Natural Glass Cleaner. You may dust the outside of the sauna with a dry dust cloth. Do not use chemical
cleaners on your sauna. Light sandpaper can be used to treat stains on the inside of the sauna. Sunlighten
Natural Sauna Cleaning Kit can be purchased at shop-us.sunlighten.com/collections/maintenance.
How do I care for the heater fabric?
The heater fabric remains as a covering over the heater panels. This is to protect the heater surfaces from any
scratches, etc. It is also there to prevent physical contact between the skin and the heaters as the sauna is
being used. To clean, wipe fabric with slightly damp cloth, using only clear water. We recommend doing
so at least once every six months. Only do so when sauna
is turned off.
Is it normal to see cracks in the wood?
Yes, wood is a living material that continues to respond to climate conditions, even after being
manufactured into a sauna. During normal operation, wood may crack slightly due to changes in moisture
level. These cracks may appear or disappear with the changing seasons, but will not affect the structural
integrity of the sauna. Our saunas are shipped around the globe, and can experience slight blemishes,
scratches, or scuffs from the transit of the sauna. In most cases these blemishes on the exterior of the room
can be concealed by using a small amount of furniture polish, oil, or other furniture treatment. The interior
blemishes, scratches, or scuffs can be either left alone, sanded, or combination of gluing (using a low VOC
wood glue) and sanding. Please avoid any treatment containing benzene or high concentration of alcohol.
However, if you detect major cracking or damage that jeopardizes the functionality of your sauna, please
submit pictures to the Customer Care team at sunlighten.com/customer-service.

ISSUE SOLUTION
An electrical component
is not working after
assembling
Check all connections. A newly assembled unit with a non-functioning electrical
component (control panel, heater panels, lights, speakers) will most likely have a missed
or loose connection.
Sauna has no power There could be a tripped breaker due to a power surge or not being plugged into a
dedicated outlet. Flip the breaker switch (a black reset button located to the left of the
power box on the roof.) If there is still no power, check the power cord connections on the
roof and make sure they are secure. Also verify the outlet power.
Slow warm-up time Ensure each wall panel is heating and that you have the CORRECT electrical
specs on a DEDICATED CIRCUIT.
