5.0 Operating Cautions
• Check all the circuitry and the plug connections carefully.
• Do not share the outlet with other electrical appliances to avoid danger.
• Do not use the sauna room if under the influence of alcohol, drugs or
medications.
• Pregnant women or persons with poor health should consult their physicians
before use.
• Minors should be supervised in order to prevent injury.
• Allow up to 30 minutes heat-up time.
• Do not use the room for dying clothes, bathing suits, etc.
• Do not put animals in the room.
• After 2 hours of continuous use, shut the sauna down for one hour.
• When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed.
• It's normal for the heaters to turn off temporarily during the session once the
sauna reaches the desired temperature. It's important to not manually keep the
heaters on the entire time or they will overheat and face reduced lifespan. Please
the desired temperature and then do not touch the heater controls for the rest of
the session.
• Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercise. Wait at least 15
minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.
• Excessive temperatures have 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 sauna.
• 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 98.6F (37C). While
hyperthermia has many health benefits, it is important not to allow your body’s
core temperature to rise above 103F (39.5C). 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.
