Using the sauna could cause these users to lose consciousness. · Parents should consult your pediatrician before allowing children to use the sauna. Ignoring advice from your medical provider could cause serious injury or death. · Do not smoke, use alcohol, or exercise in the sauna. These tasks could cause users to lose consciousness. · Do not exceed 30 min. in the sauna at one time, as excessive exposure may be harmful to health. The sauna should not be used as an endurance test. · Do not place any combustible material over the sauna heater (towels, bathing suits, wooden bucket or ladle)! This will cause the sauna to catch fire. · Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98,6 ºF. The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. · Only use stones approved for sauna heater use. Inadequate stones may crack or explode leading to serious injury. · Do not sleep in a sauna that the heater is operating. Sleeping in a heated sauna may lead to injury or death.
· Keep all occupants away from the heater and when it is hot. The stones and outer surface of the heater may burn your skin. · Do not throw excessive amounts of water on the stones. The evaporating water is boiling hot and could cause burns. · Do not throw water directly onto the elements. This could cause burns and damage to the heater.

Sauna Assembly
· Ensure sauna foundation is sturdy and level. If the foundation is not, the sauna could tilt, shift or fall leading to injury. Step 1. Connect the Four Floor Risers Fasten the four floor risers together using the predrilled holes as a guide. (1-2)

Image 2

Step 2. Position Wall Support Rails
Align each wall support so that the angled cuts make a corner. Each wall support has a predrilled hole. Fasten the front, back, and sides together (3 & 4) and lay the assembly squarely on top of the floor risers with the groove facing up (5). The rails should overlap both sides of the riser by approximately 1″ (6). Secure the assembly to the floor risers using three screws evenly spaced on each wall support rail (7 & 8).

Step 3. Position wall panels A & B Position wall panel A in the groove of the left rail and push it flush against the back rail. Having a helper hold wall panel A, placewall panel B in the groove of the back rail (9 & 10). Push the flat edge against wall panel A. Align the two panels so they are flush and fasten them together using the 2″ screws through the predrilled holes (11).

Step 8. Bench Installation Note: You may choose to install all the benches and backrests after the sauna is completed, but you may find it easier to install with the extra space and light afforded at this step.
Mount the Bench on the pre-placed bench supports. Fasten it in place using the pre-drilled holes on the sides, top, and bottom of the bench, firmly attaching it to the bench supports and to the wall of the sauna (20 & 21).

Measure the desired height at which you want to install the back rest (suggested: 8-12″ above the bench, centered on the wall). Use 2″ screws and pre-drilled holes to attach the Back Rest to Wall Panel F (22).

Step 9. LED Backrest Installation
The LED lighting comes installed on the back of the Back Rest. Find the cord coming from the light switch and bore a 5/8″ hole in wall panel C to insert the light cord through so it comes through to the outside of the sauna (23-25).

Use provided screws to position Power Supply where it is most convenient for you on the outside of wall panel C (26). Optional: Secure excess wire with zip tie or some other fastener as desired. Plug the cord into the power supply (27). Plug the power supply into any wall outlet, and flip the switch mounted on the back of the bench to operate the LED light.

Step 10. Assemble and Position Roof Support Rails
Align each roof support rail so the angled cuts join together to make a 90-degree angle placing the longer supports on the sides and the shorter supports on the front and back. Fasten them together using 2″ screws through the predrilled holes (28 & 29). This is the same assembly you performed in Step 2. Place the assembly on top of the wall panels so that the wall panels fit snugly into the groove. When in place, secure the assembly to the walls using three 2″ screws on each rail (29 & 30).

Step 11. Position Roof Panels

Position the two roof panels on top of the roof support rails with the predrilled holes facing up (31-32). The roof panels connect via tongue and groove fit. Align the connected roof panels on the rails so that approximately 1″ of the support rails extend past each side of the roof panels. Once evenly spaced, secure the panels with 2″ screws through the predrilled holes (33). Install the provided trim pieces with the 1″ trim nails to cover the raw edges of the roof panels (34).

Step 13. Finishing Touches
After the sauna has been installed, sweep down the inside to remove any sawdust and wood shavings, and then vacuum completely. Using a damp cloth with warm water, wipe down the entire sauna including the benches to remove any remaining dirt, dust and debris.
Step 14. Heater Installation

· Turn off power to heater at breaker before beginning installation or performing maintenance on the heater. Failure to turn off the power will lead to electrocution and even death.

· Improper installation of heater mounting bracket could cause the heater to fall leading to burns and other injuries.
· Before placing or adjusting stones, ensure heater is back to room temperature. Failure to do so may cause burns.

Please consult your heater manual for all heater installation information.

Turn over matched pieces so the long section is face down. Ensure the boards are flush in the top corner for optimal fitment (42). Attach the two pieces together using the two predrilled holes and remaining screws from your sauna hardware kit (43). It is recommended to keep pressure on the two square boards during fastening for easier assembly. See below for finished heater fence (44). To install heater fence into sauna, use the four predrilled holes and screws
from sauna hardware kit (45-46). Place fence around heater and fasten into side and front wall panels (47).

TRADITIONAL SAUNA USE
Congratulations! You are ready to enjoy your sauna! You may use your sauna in a wet or dry fashion. A dry sauna means you do not sprinkle any water onto the stones, while wet means you increase the humidity of the room by sprinkling water on the stones. Please note that not much water is needed to achieve a wet sauna experience! The sauna as we know it originates in Finland. The typical sauna experience follows the steps below, but you may enjoy your sauna in any way that you like!
· Set your heater so your sauna achieves the desired temperature. This is typically 150 -170+ degrees F. Please note, novice sauna users should begin at the lower end of that range and increase their high temperature over time.
· Take a quick shower or a quick dip in a hot tub or pool. · Step into the sauna and enjoy for 5-15 minutes, bringing a towel to sit or lay on. Leave the sauna once you are
perspiring freely. · Take a plunge in a pool, shower, snowbank, lake – anything that will cool you down! After that, relax and cool down
for 10-20 minutes. · Step into the sauna again. During this visit, you may wish to sprinkle small amounts of water onto the stones to
create bursts of steam. If water spills through the heater to the floor, you are using too much water, though this will not hurt the heater or the sauna. · Continue repeating this process. After your final visit to your sauna, relax for at least 20 minutes. Shower with warm water initially, finishing with cool water to close your skin pores. · Prepare to feel refreshed for the day or to have an amazing night’s sleep! Whatever your sauna routine, it is imperative that you STAY HYDRATED!
