QSG (Quick Start Guide)

Timer The sauna heater is controlled by multi-stage timer. The timer is set by twisting the knob clockwise to desired setting. 1-3 refers to the run time(1, 2, or 3 hour duration).

Ÿ 0 position. The sauna heater is off. Ÿ Operating time 1–3 hours. To set, turn timer knob past "3", then turn back to desired duration.

Recommend run time is one hour. (You will hear contactor engage when turning back to the "run zone"

Ÿ The sauna heater will heat up at full power, controlled by the sauna thermostat temperature

setting.

Ÿ If the switch has not traveled back to 0 position after finishing bathing, turn it to 0 manually

Ÿ Preset Start Time: 1–9 hours. Ÿ Turn the timer to delay zone and select the delay time (in hours). Once the delay lapses, the

sauna will begin and 3 hour run cycle.

Thermostat The thermostat knob is next to the timer knob. The further right (clockwise) the knob is switched, the higher the temperature in the sauna room.

The best way to find your ideal temperature is to first turn the thermostat to maximum and let the temperature rise to the desired temperature. Subsequently, turn the thermostat knob slowly counter-clockwise until you hear a gentle clicking sound. If you want to re-adjust the temperature, turn the thermostat gradually until the temperature is ideal. The thermostat has an integrated temperature high limit with a reset button next to the top right of the thermostat knob.

The thermostat will not operate correctly if the stones are piled too densely or they are too small.
