SECTION 13: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Cont.)
Caution:
When turning on your sauna for the first time
follow steps 1 and 2 and let the heater run
with no one in the sauna room through two
cycles a full 120 minutes. This will allow
excess oil to burn off the heating elements
without causing any discomforttothe bather.
Step 1:
Set the temperature rotating knob on
10. This is the highest heat setting.
Step 2:
If your temperature control is C102A or
C103A turn the one hour timer to its maximum
setting (60 minutes).
Step 3:
Observe the wall thermometer (heat
indicator) in the Sauna room (6"from the ceiling)
and when it shows a temperature that feels
satisfactory to you (160° to 180° F is normal)
slowly rotate the temperature knob from 10 back
towards the OFF position until you hear a click
and the red indicating light goes out. At this
setting the heat
will cycle
ON and
OFF and main-
tain
approximatelythetemperature nowappear-
ing on the wall thermometer.
After you have used the Sauna a few times, you
should be
able to determine the number on the
rotating dial that will give you the temperature
that you prefer for your Sauna bath.
Step 4:
After you have finished your Sauna bath
turn the switches OFF. The timer switch may be
advanced at any time during your Sauna, or it
will automatically shut the heater off when time
has expired.
Note:
Your temperature control has a red
indicating
light; you will observe that
this glows only when power is actually
going to the heating elements.
The Sauna, like a bathroom, should be kept clean
and odor free.
Towels or mats should always be used on
benches and floor as perspiration otherwise
penetrates the soft wood.
Air out the Sauna often by keeping the door and
vents open when the Sauna is not in use. Saunas
that are in daily use should be washed down at
least once a week to keep them clean and the air
fresh. Duckboard should be removed from the
Sauna, the Sauna floor mopped and dried in a
conventional manner, and the duckboard thor-
oughly scrubbed and dried before returning to
the Sauna room. The Sauna heater should be
wiped down occasionally with a damp cloth to
remove
lint and dust. The rocks should be re-
moved once a year for cleaning and small or
crumbled rocks replaced.
To clean and remove perspiration stains, use
soap or detergent in warm water, best applied
with a scrub brush. Badly soiled surfaces may
require sanding. Sand paper wrapped around a
wooden block works well.
Benches and supporting structure must be in-
spected annually for potential deterioration due
to age, dry rot or abuse. Any boards with signs of
deteriorations should be replaced immediately to
avoid possible injury.
