Heating of the sauna
CAUTION!
Smoke and odor formation when heating up for the first time
Work materials from the manufacturing process will be present on the new heating elements.
These evaporate when the sauna heater is heated up for the first time. This produces smoke
and an unpleasant odor. Breathing in the fumes or smoke can be harmful to your health.
Perform the following steps when operating the sauna heater for the first time and if the
heating elements for the sauna heater have been changed. In this way you will prevent damage
to health due to the fumes and smoke produced when heating up for the first time.

Select the highest possible temperature in the sauna control.
Heat up the sauna heater for half an hour. Do NOT stay in the sauna cabin during this period.
Allow the sauna cabin to ventilate thoroughly after heating up for the first time.
If no smoke or odor is produced the next time the sauna heater is heated up, you can start
to use the sauna. If smoke or odor is produced again, leave the sauna cabin immediately and
repeat the initial heating up process followed by ventilation.
Always check the sauna room before switching sauna heater on (to be sure that there is no
combustible things within the
safety distances of the heater or on the heater
). Make sure that
sauna room has been efficiently ventilated. If the output of the heater is proper it will take about an
hour to reach suitable temperature (Fig. 10). The temperature in sauna room should be between
+60 - + 90 °C, according to the preference of user. Too powerful heater will heat sauna room too
quickly and the stones won't have enough time to warm. The water poured on the stones will not
evaporate, but flow into the stone holder. An underpowered heater, on the other hand, would lead to
an undesirably long heating period.

That the heater has been switched to operating time not to the presetting time.
