Risk of fire due to
sauna stones
It is possible for hot stones or stone pieces to fall out of the rock
store.
The sauna heater may not be placed on a floor made of easily
flammable material (laminate or synthetic flooring, etc.). Ce-
ramic tiles are recommended as a flooring option.
Risk of scalding from
hot steam
There is a risk of scalding from hot steam at the steam emission
outlet when using the vaporiser (Herkules XL S120 Vapor only).
The steam escapes from the long side of the holder.
Add essences and herbs to the holder only from the front.
Health risks
Spending time in a sauna cabin can lead to serious health risks or
even death for persons with health impairments.
Persons with health impairments who spend time in a sauna
must consult a doctor before entering a sauna cabin.
Damage to health
Excessive time spent in a heated sauna cabin can lead to overheat-
ing of the body (hyperthermia), which may cause serious health
problems and even death. Hyperthermia occurs when the core
temperature of the body exceeds the norm by a few degrees.
Symptoms of hyperthermia include fever, dizziness, lethargy,
sleepiness, and fainting. Side effects of hyperthermia include per-
ception disorders, inability to recognize the need to leave the
room, inability to identify imminent danger, harm to the foetus in
the case of pregnant women, inability to physically leave the room
and unconsciousness.
Alcohol, drugs, and medications increase the risk of hyperthermia.
Do not exceed the maximum recommended time in the sauna.
Leave the sauna cabin if your body responds abnormally to the
heat or if you do not feel well.
Avoid alcohol, drugs, and medications when you are using the
sauna.
Floor heating in the sauna cabin results in additional warming
of the legs and can lead to health risks.
Water connection
Prevent water from flowing from the water supply and the box for
the heater's water level control (Herkules XL S120 Vapor only)
back into the piping system for potable water.
Close the shut-off valve if the connection to potable water is not
used for an extended period of time.
