Operating the Sauna
NOTE: Before the sauna is turned on, remove plastic protective covering from the CONTROL PANELS.
Please check and confirm that the connections to the POWER SUPPLY, HEAT EMITTERS, CD/RADIO,
and TEMPERATURE SENSOR are connected properly. The power supply voltage and frequency must
match the requested voltage and frequency of the sauna (120VAC 15AMP Dedicated Circuit or 120VAC
20AMP Dedicated Circuit).
Since many materials absorb the infrared rays, minimal clothing is recommended for maximum effect.
The infrared sauna emitters are designed to heat you and not necessarily the air inside the sauna. It is
not a hot box like a traditional sauna. The temperature gauge is a guide for your safety. It is
recommended that you drink water before, during, and after sauna use to prevent dehydration since
body fluids will be lost through perspiration. It is not recommended to shower after use since the pores
in your skin will be open and could possibly absorb anything in the water.
1. Plug the sauna into the outlet receptacle.
2. Press the POWER button once. The POWER light will come on, the TIME DISPLAY will show
the last time setting (60 minutes for example), the TEMPERATURE DISPLAY will show the last
temperature setting (120 degrees Fahrenheit for example), and the control panel will flash. Press
the “START”/”WORK” button to let the sauna room begin heating.

sauna room to reach the set temperature if you enter the sauna room before it has reached the set
temperature.
