Instructions for use and maintenance
• Before bathing for the first time, heat up the heater once to burn off the protective oil solvents
from the heating elements. Be careful to ventilate the sauna during that and afterwards.
• Before switching the heater on always check that there is nothing flammable on top of the heater
or inside the given safety distance
•
The heating time is about 60–75 minutes depending on the size of the room and its ventilation.
Recommended bathing temperature for IKI stone pillars is 131- 167F (55–75C). The temperature
should be set to the desired range from the temperature knob in the control unit.
• Pouring water on the heater increases temperature and humidity. You can control the heat and
humidity by pouring the water to different parts of the heater. You can adjust the feel of the heat
and steam from soft to sharp by throwing water either to the side of the heater or by pouring
water on top of the stones at different places.
• Check that the heating elements do not become exposed as the stones shift about due to heat
expansion. The stones settle normally in the first 10-20 times when heater is used.
•
Check the condition of the stones at least once a year and replace if necessary. Rearrange the
stones as advised in paragraph (Page 7: Piling the stones) once a year or even more often if the
sauna is in frequent use. Replace any disintegrated stones with new ones. By doing this, the power
output of the heater stays good and the risk of overheating is avoided.
• Do not throw water to the heater when there are people nearby: the steam coming off the heater
is burning hot. This might burn their skin. Do not throw too much water on to the heater. Maximum
amount is 12 ounces (0,5l). It is important to throw water on the heated stones to have a good and
comfortable level of humidity in the sauna.
•
The water to be thrown on the heated stones should meet the requirements of clean household
water (table 6).
•
After taking the (Löyly) in the sauna, cool your skin down as necessary and allow your heart rate to
settle back to normal. Have a drink of fresh water or mineral water to help stabilize your fluid
balance.
