Safety
Read all health and safety instructions. If in doubt as to the advisability of
using your infrared sauna, consult with your physician prior to use. If you
feel light-headed or heat exhaustion during session, exit the sauna
immediately.
1. Read and follow all instructions carefully.
2. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed.
3. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the infrared sauna
unless they are closely supervised by a responsible adult.
4. Do not use the infrared sauna immediately following strenuous exercise.
Wait at least 30 minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.
5. Excessive temperature has a high potential for causing fetal damage during
the early months of pregnancy.
Pregnant or possibly pregnant women
should contact their physician prior to using the infrared sauna.
6. Hyperthermia Danger: Prolonged exposure to hot air will induce
hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the
body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of
37ºC (98.6ºF). While hyperthermia has many health benefits, it is important
not to allow
your body’s core temperature to rise above 103ºF. Symptoms
of excessive hyperthermia include dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and
fainting. The effects of excessive hyperthermia may include failure to
perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit, unawareness of
impending hazard, fetal damage in pregnant women, physical inability to
exit the sauna, and unconsciousness.
7. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the infrared
sauna session may lead to unconsciousness.
