Fill the heater with provided stones. NOTE: Only use the stones
provided with your heater and never operate the heater without
stones. Wash the stones with water and then place between and
around the heating elements. The stones will touch the elements
but should not be forced into place. Use the smaller stones first; FILL
UNTIL STONES COVER THE ELEMENTS COMPLETELY. You may not
need all of the stones.
NOTE: Stones should be placed loosely within the heater so that there is good heat circulation around and
through them. The stones should cover the heating elements, but you want to be able to see them a little bit
to verify that they are turning red. Pouring water over over-exposed elements could cause heater damage.
TIMER OPERATION
To turn the heater on, turn the On|Off and Timer dial clockwise past the small “1” and then back slowly to
the large “1” until you hear a click. The sauna heater should now begin heating and will do so for one hour
and then automatically shut off. Repeat this step if you wish to have the heater continue heating after it
shuts off.
The On|Off control also functions as an 8-hour delay timer. You can set the heater to come “on” up to 8
hours later. If you wish to have the heater turn on in two hours, turn the timer clockwise to the small “2”.
The heater will then begin heating in two hours. Follow the same procedure for delayed startup up to eight
hours in advance.
Since the heater will always shut off after one hour, you may need to turn the heater on again while in the
sauna. Never stay in the heated sauna for extended periods of time. Consult the safety instructions in the
heater manual before using the sauna.

. At this point, it’s time to switch on the heater, so turn on the breaker. There is a non-toxic coating on the
heater elements, and the purpose of this preliminary heating stage is to burn that coating away. It is normal
for smoke to appear, so keep the door open to prevent it from leaving a black residue on the ceiling. Run the
heater for 3-5 minutes or until it stops smoking, and then turn it off and allow the elements to cool.
