CHARM SAUNA

WHAT ARE INFRARED RAYS?

• Infrared is the band of light we perceive as heat. We cannot see this band of light with the naked eye, but we can feel this type of light in the form of heat. Our sun produces most of its energy output in the infrared segment of the spectrum. Infrared rays heat your body without having to heat the air in-between. This process is called conversion.
• The infrared is divided into 3 segments by wavelengths measured in microns: near infrared: 0.76-1.5 microns; middle infrared: 1.5-5.6 microns; and far infrared: 5.6-1000 microns. Among these segments, only far infrared penetrates organic substances such as the human body two to three inches so that the warming effect is very uniform.

ARE INFRARED RAYS SAFE?
Because infrared rays are part of sunlight, they are not only safe but also highly beneficial to our bodies on a cellular level. Health professionals have used infrared heat lamps for decades to treat muscle and joint problems. In hospital baby care units, incubators are often equipped with infrared heating systems to keep newborn babies warm.

HOW IT WORKS

• Infrared Saunas differ from traditional saunas in that they use infrared radiant energy to directly penetrate into the body’s tissue to produce perspiration.
• Traditional saunas use steam to heat the air inside the sauna, which then heats your body until you begin to perspire. In order for this to be effective, temperatures would need to reach in the upwards of 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Infrared saunas only need a temperature of up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit to obtain the same effect. This lower temperature makes the environment more tolerable and allows you to breathe easier.

BENEFITS

• Because infrared rays penetrate the body through conversion, there is a deep heating effect in both the muscle tissues and internal organs without putting too much burden on the heart.
• Our body reacts to the increased heating through the natural cooling process of perspiring. Through the perspiration process, acid and waste residue like toxins, sodium, alcohol, nicotine, cholesterol and the potentially carcinogenic heavy metals are removed from the cells (especially zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc). The pores of our skin open and discharge waste products shedding any old skin cells leaving the skin glowing and clean, with improved tone, elasticity, texture, and color.
• Over the last 25 years, Japanese and Chinese researchers and clinicians have completed extensive research on infrared treatments and have reported many provocative findings. In Japan, there is an “infrared society” composed of medical doctors and physical therapists dedicated to furthering infrared research. Their findings support the health benefits of infrared therapy as a method of healing.

Benefits include, but are not limited to:

• Pain relief from Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Relaxing muscle spasms
• Increasing blood circulation
• Cardiovascular conditioning
• Clears rashes, acne
• Reduces cellulite
• Removes toxins and mineral waste
• Reduces stress and fatigue
• Enhances skin tone

SAUNA MAINTENANCE

Since infrared saunas do not require hot rocks, water, or steam to operate, they require very little maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with water and a soft clean cloth. Do not use any cleaning chemicals as they can be absorbed into the wood and be released into your sauna during use.

DISCLAIMER

The infrared rays emitted by your sauna are reported to offer a wide range of possible therapeutic benefits based on research completed over the last 25 years from all around the world. These benefits are presented for reference purposes only and no implication of infrared saunas creating a cure for or treating any disease is implied nor should it be inferred. If you have a health condition, are taking prescription drugs, or have acute joint injuries, please consult your physician before starting infrared therapy. Persons with surgical implants (metal pins and rods, artificial joints, silicone, or other types of surgical implants) typically do not experience any adverse effects, but should also consult their physician or surgeon before starting infrared therapy.
CAUTION: Exit sauna immediately if you feel dizzy, sleepy, or any discomfort.
WARNING: Visually inspect all heaters before assembly to make sure they are not damaged. Any excessive vibrations during transport could cause damage to the heating elements. DO NOT START the sauna if damage is detected! Contact your dealer or manufacturer for troubleshooting and replacement parts.

• PANELS. Please check and confirm that the connections to the POWER SUPPLY, HEAT EMITTERS,
  CD/RADIO, and TEMPERATURE SENSOR are connected properly. The power supply voltage and frequency must match the requested voltage and frequency of the sauna (120VAC 15AMP Dedicated Circuit or 120VAC 20AMP Dedicated Circuit).

• Since many materials absorb the infrared rays, minimal clothing is recommended for maximum effect.

• The infrared sauna emitters are designed to heat you and not necessarily the air inside the sauna. It is not a hot box like a traditional sauna. The temperature gauge is a guide for your safety. It is recommended that you drink water before, during, and after sauna use to prevent dehydration since body fluids will be lost through perspiration. It is not recommended to shower after use since the pores in your skin will be open and could possibly absorb anything in the water.

1. Plug the sauna into the outlet receptacle.
2. Press the POWER button once. The POWER light will come on, the TIME DISPLAY will show 90 (minutes), the TEMPERATURE DISPLAY will show 66 (degrees Celsius), and the control panel will flash.
3. Press the up/down arrows under the TIME DISPLAY to adjust the amount of time you want the sauna to remain on. Press the C/F button to choose between Celsius and Fahrenheit. Press the up/down arrows under the TEMPERATURE DISPLAY to adjust the temperature setting. Once you have set these adjustments to the desired settings, press the START/WORK button. If you don’t press the button for 5 seconds, the control panel will stop flashing and the set-up values will be memorized. The WORK and HEAT lights will now be on and the emitters will now be generating heat. You will need to pre-heat the sauna room to the set temperature before entering. Please keep in mind that you will increase the time it takes for the sauna room to reach the set temperature if you enter the sauna room before it has reached the set temperature.
4. During your sauna session, set-up time will count down the minutes one by one. When the time remaining is 5 minutes, the buzzer will make a warning sound for approximately 15 seconds letting you know you only have 5 minutes remaining. At this point, you can let the time run out or adjust the time by pressing the up/down arrows under the TIME DISPLAY. If you do choose to adjust the time, the control panel will flash and the emitters will stop generating heat.

Tips for using Your Sauna

1. If you take a hot/warm shower or bath before using your sauna, you may perspire more and experience more comfort.
2. Drink water prior to, during, and after your sauna session to replenish body fluids.
3. To regulate the set temperature inside the sauna to your comfort level, use the movable roof ventilation or leave the door open slightly. The roof ventilation is installed on the sauna and used based on personal preference.
4. Use 2 or 3 towels during your sauna session. Fold one of the towels several times and place it on the bench. This towel will absorb some of your perspiration while adding comfort as you sit on the bench. Place another towel on the floor to absorb perspiration as it falls from your body (only on Ceramic Model Saunas). Be sure not to place any towels over the floor heat emitters. Use a third towel to wipe perspiration from your body from time to time.
5. At the first sign of a cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in boosting your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of viruses.
6. To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas during your sauna session.
7. To treat your ankles and feet more effectively, you can elevate them and move them close to one of the heat emitters to achieve a deep heating effect.
8. To utilize the sauna’s heat therapy effect, put oil or treatment into your hair and wrap it with a towel. After your sauna session is over, rinse your hair thoroughly. Please follow the product directions for the intended benefits.
9. The peaceful and relaxed state rendered by a sauna session may help you to sleep easier and deeper.
10. To conserve energy consumption, please unplug your sauna when not in use.
11. After the sauna session is over, do not jump into the shower or bath immediately. Because your body was heated up during the sauna session, it will continue to perspire even after the heat emitters are off. Sit in the sauna with the door open slightly and let your body cool down. Once your body has cooled down and you feel comfortable, you can exit the sauna. After about twenty minutes and when your body has completely cooled down, you can take a shower to rinse the perspiration off your body.

Safety Instructions

1. Read and follow all instructions carefully before using the sauna.

2. When installing and using the electrical equipment, safety precautions should always be followed.

3. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the sauna unless they are closely supervised at all times by an adult.

4. Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercises. Wait at least 30 minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.

5. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should contact their physician prior to using the sauna. Excessive temperature has a high potential for causing fetal damage during pregnancy.

6. Hyperthermia Danger: the normal body temperature can’t rise above 39°C (103°F). Symptoms of excessive hyperthermia include dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive hyperthermia may include failure to perceive heat, physical inability to exit sauna, unawareness of impending hazard, unconsciousness and fetal damage in pregnant women. Hyperthermia could make your body’s core temperature rise. Setting desired temperature to an excessively high temperature is not recommended.

7. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the sauna session may lead to unconsciousness and/or other harmful physical injuries.

8. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician prior to using the sauna.

15. Do not use the sauna during an electrical storm to avoid risk of shock.

16. Do not continuously switch the power on and off as it will compromise the life of the electrical components.

17. Your hands must be dry and free of moisture before plugging and unplugging cords and wiring harnesses from the power supply and circuit boards. Never operate the sauna with wet hands or wet feet to avoid risk of electric shock. Never touch the metal prongs of the plug.

18. Do not attempt to make any repairs yourself. If a problem occurs with the sauna, please contact seller, distributor, or the manufacturer to avoid safety risks. Unauthorized repair attempts will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

19. Please make sure the outlet power supply meets the specifications required. Failure to meet the requirements may cause safety risks.

20. Some sauna models are equipped with reading and roof lamps. Because the lamp temperature will become very hot once powered on, do not attempt to touch the lamp to avoid being burned.
    Do not attempt to touch it for at least 20 minutes after it has been powered off.

21. Do not pour water or any other liquids on the infrared emitters. Do not bump, hit, or break the heating elements as it may cause an electrical short and pose a safety risk.

22. Do not make any modifications to the sauna, the sauna structure, or the sauna components.

23. Prior to each sauna session, the sauna room is to be inspected for correct operation. If for any reason your sauna room does not seem to be operating properly, discontinue use and contact the manufacturer.

Safeguards For Your Sauna

1. Do not install the sauna near water, near a bathtub, near a shower, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
2. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleansers inside the sauna. Unplug the sauna from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use plain water and a soft cloth for cleaning.
3. The power supply cord should be routed so that it is not walked on or pinched by any object that may be placed against it.
4. When replacement parts are required, be sure they meet the specified requirements of the manufacturer. Unauthorized substitutes may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazardous conditions. After any repairs, please ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that your sauna is working properly.
5. Do not use any wall receptacle adapter or extension cord between the sauna cord and wall receptacle.

Troubleshooting Guide

• No Heat Coming From Some Of The Heat Emitters
  • Solution: Check to make sure all the heat emitter cords are properly connected, including the cord to the heat emitter underneath the bench (if applicable). Go to the roof, and also check that the heat emitter cords are properly connected to the cords on the roof and that those cords are properly plugged into the power supply.
  • Solution: If some of the heat emitters are working, then the ones which are not working may have been damaged. Do not continue to operate. Contact the manufacturer for replacement parts.
  • Solution: If the heat emitters are not working but the control panel displays the time and temperature, then the temperature sensor may not be plugged in properly or it may be damaged. Turn the control panel off and then go to the roof of the sauna and locate the red and black wires near the air vent towards the rear of the sauna. After you have located the red and black wires labeled “TEMP SENSOR”, disconnect them. Connect the spare temperature sensor. For testing purposes, insert the “TEMP SENSOR” (you just connected) down the vent on the roof so that it is now inside the sauna. Then go to the control panel and press the power button. If the heat emitters now have heat, then the “TEMP SENSOR” was the cause of the problem. You may have to wait about five minutes to confirm if the heat emitters are generating heat. Remove the original temperature sensor from its hole and replace it with the spare one.
• Control Panel Malfunctioning
  • Solution: The control panel will turn on, but not off and the displayed numbers flash. The issue may be a connection problem. Go up to the roof and locate the “CTRL” wire harness you connected when the roof was installed onto the sauna room. Disconnect the “CTRL” wire harness, check the pins to make sure they are straight and not bent, and firmly reconnect the “CTRL” wire harness. Attempt to turn the sauna on at the control panel and check to see if the buttons are now responding. Contact the manufacturer for any additional troubleshooting.
  • Solution: The control panel will not turn off, the power/work/or heat lights do not come on, or the temperature and timer buttons do not work means the control panel may have been damaged and will need to be replaced. Contact the manufacturer for additional troubleshooting.
• Sauna Shows Signs Of No Power
  • Solution: There could be one of a few problems causing this. First, check to see if the cord from the power supply is plugged into the wall outlet. Also check your main circuit breaker to confirm that it has not tripped. Check the power supply on the roof of the sauna to make sure there are no signs of malfunctioning, such as a high temperature, burning odor, or strange sounds. Also, check to make sure none of the power cords are damaged. If the power supply is malfunctioning or power cords are damaged, then unplug the sauna immediately and contact the manufacturer.
  • Solution: If your sauna is plugged in and you have no power at the control panel, then the power supply may need to be reset. Go to the roof of the sauna and locate the power supply. Press the RESET button to reset the power supply. The RESET button is on the same side of the power supply as all the heater cord connections. Attempt to turn the sauna on at the control panel. Contact the manufacturer for any additional troubleshooting.
  • Solution: There could be damage to the temperature sensor. If your sauna arrived with a spare temperature sensor, turn the control panel off and go to the roof of the sauna and locate the red and black wire near the air vent towards the rear of the sauna. After you have located the red and black wires labeled “TEMP SENSOR”, disconnect them. Connect the spare temperature sensor. For testing purposes, insert the “TEMP SENSOR” (you just connected) down the vent on the roof so that it is now inside the sauna. Then go to the control panel and press the power button. If the heat emitters now heat, then the temperature sensor was the cause of the problem. You may have to wait about five minutes to confirm if the heat emitters are generating heat. Remove the original temperature sensor from its hole and replace it with the spare one.
  • Solution: Check the wiring harnesses coming from the power supply located on the roof of the sauna. Make sure the wiring harness labeled “CTRL” is connected to the power supply at one end and connected to another wiring harness labeled “CTRL” at the other end. If this wiring harness is not properly connected, then the sauna will show signs of having no power.
• CD Player Will Not Work
  Solution: Check to make sure the lock screws on top of the radio have been removed. The CD player will not work if the screws are not removed
