Choice of location
Holl’s saunas are designed solely for interior installation.

Select a space:

• Inside, in a dry area, on a flat stable surface that can support the weight of your sauna.
• The height must be sufficient for you to reach the ceiling and carry out electrical connections and maintenance.
• Away from any source of water, flames or flammable materials.

Practical advice

• Note that sauna assembly requires 2 or 3 adults.
• Clearly identify each panel before you begin
• During assembly, position your sauna’s mains cable so that it is easily accessible.
• Note that there are variations between the models.

IMPORTANT : Please check the countersink and hole diameter of the drill holes to avoird damaging the wood. The minimum room height required for installation is 2020 mm.

Assembly Instructions

Step 1: Position the flooring on the ground at the location where you wish to install the sauna. The front part of the panel can be recognised by the absence of an electrical connector.
Step 2: Install the rear panel in the groove in the flooring.
Step 3: Position the left side panel in the groove in the flooring, ensuring that it slots perfectly into the rear panel. Finish the assembly of two side panels by locking buckles.

Finish the assembly of two side panels by locking buckles.
Step 4: Position the right side panel in the groove in the flooring, ensuring that it slots perfectly into the rear panel as well as the bench. Finish the assembly of two side panels by locking buckles.

Finish the assembly of two side panels by locking buckles.
Step 5: Position the lower part of the bench, ensuring that it slots perfectly into the flooring as well as the side panels. The heating panels must be aligned towards the door. Connect the electrical plugs located behind the bench. Finally, position the upper part of the bench, ensuring that it rests securely on the horizontal guides fixed to the rear and side panel. Enjoy your Venetian Hybrid Sauna for a relaxing and rejuvenating experience!

Step 6: Carefully position the front panel, ensuring that it fits perfectly with the side panels.
Important : Keep the door closed while handling this component.

Finish the assembly of three side panels by locking buckles.

Step 7: After moving the cables outside the cabin, carefully position the ceiling over the cabin so as not to damage the temperature sensor.

Pass the cables into the ceiling via the openings provided.

Step 8: Connect the cables to the control box in accordance with their coding (Cable A. Load A, Cable B. Load B, etc.). The remaining cables must be connected in accordance with the number of pins on each connector. Once the connections are complete, position the protective plywood sheet on the ceiling.* Some cables do not connect to anything depending on the options available in your cabin.

Step 9:

On the outside of the door, position the handle in line with the holes provided.

Insert the screws through the inside of the door and fix the handle. The metal part must be on the outside of the cabin. (depending on model) After checking that the sauna is working correctly, we recommend that you screw the ceiling’s plywood sheet tight to the upper panel. As the sauna can reach very high temperatures, this part can often exhibit variations in shape, especially at the corners.
Important : The screws must be removed if you need to carry out maintenance.

Step 10 (option)

Plug the ionizer and screw it to his place. Press ION to prevent diseases of ventilation. Press O3 for disinfection with ozone.

Step 10:

The stove’s protective cage must be assembled then installed inside the cabin.

Step 11:

Install the stove in its cage. All instructions for the stove’s installation and electrical connection are enclosed in its shipping carton.
Note: For stove installation, please refer to the stove manual.

Operating instructions

Review the medical contraindications and safety instructions. Consult your doctor if you have any doubts concerning the possible use of your infrared sauna. If you start to feel ill during your session, leave your sauna immediately.

1. Adjust your sauna’s temperature to between 40 and 50°C.

2. The sauna preheats within 15 to 25 minutes. We recommend that you add this preheating time to the duration time of your session.
   Example : for a 30 minute session, programme 45 minutes and re-enter the cabin once the sauna is hot. Enjoy the heating time for a shower or bath before the session and be sure to dry yourself.

3. Make use of the pre-heating time to have a shower or warm bath before the session.

4. When the required temperature is reached, the heating equipment will go on stand-by so as to maintain a constant temperature.

5. Drink water before, during and after the session. This will help compensate for the loss of water through sweating.

6. To absorb perspiration and keep your sauna dry, it is advisable to place a towel on the bench and one on the cabin floor. Keep a third towel close at hand to remove excess perspiration.

7. Sweating will begin between 6 and 15 minutes after the session starts. We recommend you do not exceed 30 minutes in the sauna and dry you regularly to avoid wetting the issuers, as well as damaging the wood prematurely.

8. You can open the door at any time to introduce fresh air during your session. Infrared heating’s unique property is to directly heat the body without heating the ambient air. This allows you to enjoy a session with the door ajar without minimising its effects.

9. After the session, you can allow your body to perspire further by remaining in the switched-off sauna with the door open prior to having a warm shower to get rid of toxins.

Tips

• For beautiful hair, you can cover it with oil (jojoba, for example) or a care product, and wrap it in a towel. When the session is over, wash it with a very gentle shampoo.
• To soothe away your aches and pains, massage the painful areas during the session.
• Take advantage of this thermal bath to gently stretch your muscles.
• At the first signs of cold weather, increase the frequency of your sessions to activate your immune system.
