ENJOYING YOUR SAUNA
1. Prior to initial use, wipe down all interior surfaces of the sauna with a damp cloth.
2. Turn on the sauna and set temperature to 104° F for one hour to burn off any factory dust.
3. Always drink plenty of water before, during and after your sauna session to stay properly
hydrated.
4. A normal sauna session should last 30 minutes or less.
5. Allow approximately 10 to 15 minutes for the sauna to warm up before entering.
6. Perspiration will begin within 10 to 15 minutes after entering the sauna.
7. Limit the use of lotions or oils on your body while using your sauna. These products can
block your pores and limit perspiration, decreasing the effectiveness of your sauna session.
8. For spot treatment of a particular area, position that body part closer to the heater, allow-
ing for deeper heating in that area.
9. During your sauna session, place towels on the bench seats and on the floor to absorb per-
spiration and maintain the cleanliness of your sauna.
10. Towel off excess perspiration during your sauna session to help your body perspire more
freely.
11. Open the ceiling vent or the front door to allow fresh air into your sauna.
12. Allow your body to cool down following your sauna session, then rinse the perspiration
off your body in a warm shower.
