General safety instructions
1.2 Operation and settings
These operating instructions are intended for the personnel responsible for the operation of a sauna cabin. Observe the following general safety instructions during set-up and operation.
Risk to life and limb
and risk of fire
Fire hazard from
overheating
Risk to life and limb from electric shock and fire in the event of improper or faulty electrical connection. This risk also applies following completion of the installation work.
The electrical installation of the relay box and other electrical
systems or equipment with a fixed mains connection must only
be performed by a trained electrician from an authorised electrical company.
Observe the stipulations in VDE 0100 part 701.
The system must be disconnected and removed entirely from
the mains supply before commencing installation and repair
work.
The housing cover must only be removed by a specialist.
Insufficient ventilation can lead to device overheating and fire.
Flammable parts must not exceed a temperature of 140°C when
the unit is operated as intended or in the event of a malfunction.
Do not install control panels, relay boxes and modules in en-
closed cabinets or wood panelling.
Observe the sauna heater manufacturer's safety and installa-
tion instructions.
Observe the cabin manufacturer's safety and installation in-
structions.
Touchable glass surfaces on the outside of the cabins could
reach a maximum of 76°C. Attach safety devices if needed.
Damage to the unitCorrosive or heavy saline atmospheres damage the contacts in the
control panel, in the relay box and in the sensors.
The control panel and sensors should not be installed in a cor-
rosive or heavy saline atmosphere.
EN-6Operating Instructions - EmoTouch 3
General safety instructions
Damage due to
incorrect mounting
location
The control unit is not suitable for outdoor use.
It must be operated only inside buildings and may not be ex-
posed to environmental conditions such as extreme humidity
and moisture or the possible formation of condensation or corrosive substances in the ambient air, as well as other weather
conditions.
Similarly, excessive cold and extreme exposure to sunlight must
be prevented.
Protect the unit accordingly if there is an increased risk of me-
chanical damage.
1.3 Operator instruction
The operator of the infrared or sauna cabin must be instructed in
the general safety instructions during commissioning. The operator must be given a copy of the operating instructions.
The operator must make the end user aware of safety instructions
that are relevant to the end user.
Risk of electric shockA risk t o life and lim b from elect ric shock and fire arises i n the event
of improper repair work. This risk also applies after work is completed.
The unit covers must only be removed by a specialist.
Repairs and installations must only be performed by a trained
specialist.
The system must be disconnected and removed entirely from
the mains supply before commencing repair work.
Use only original spare parts from the manufacturer.
Fire hazardObjects placed on the sauna heaters can easily be ignited and
cause fires.
Do not place objects on the sauna heater.
If you switch on the sauna heater using pre-set timers or a re-
mote control, attach a protective cover to the heater or install a
suitable safety device.
Inspect the cabin prior to commissioning.
When using control units with a remote control option (see
EN 60335-1), protection from switching on a covered sauna
heater is required.

General safety instructions
Risk of burns and
chemical burns
Health risksSpending time in an infrared or sauna cabin can lead to serious
Equipment damage
due to overuse
Touching hot parts may lead to skin burns and chemical burns of
the skin.
The operator must be familiar with the unit's hot parts and be
able to identify them.
The operator must be familiar with the settings for the heating
period and understand how it is controlled.
health risks or even death for persons with health impairments.
Persons with health impairments who spend time in a sauna
must consult a doctor before entering an infrared or sauna cabin.
The uninterrupted operation time of the sauna cabin(s) can lead to
property damage.
If the sauna cabin is used commercially, the heating time must
be set so that it switches o ff automatically after a specific period
of time.
If the heating does not switch off automatically after a defined
heating period, cabin use must be supervised at all times.
Inspect the cabin before each use.
Operation by
children or persons
with reduced mental
capacity
Children and persons with reduced mental capacity can be a risk.
Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the unit.
Children under 8 years of age should not operate the sauna
cabin.
The settings for the heating time must only be used by children
under 8 years of age if they are supervised by an adult.
The sauna cabin must only be used by persons with reduced
mental capacity, or limited physical or sensory abilities under
supervision or if they have already been instructed in its use and
understand the risks.
Children and persons who have not received proper instruction
must not clean or service the system.
