Position the sauna stones on the stone grid

Sauna stones are a natural product. We recommend that you clean the stones
with clean water before placing them on the stove. Do not use stones unless
they are designed for use in a sauna. Use a maximum of 12 kg of stones.
Important. Position the stones loosely and remove any stones that are too
small. If the stones are packed too tightly they will affect the air circulation and
will result in the sauna stove and cabin walls overheating and a fire risk.
Do not use the stove without stones.
Only use stones that are marked as sauna stones in shops. Warranty claims
will not be accepted if stones other than those designed for use in saunas are
used or for claims resulting from filling of the stone chambers incorrectly. Turn
the stones at least once per year, remove any stones that are too small and
remove all stone dust and stone splinters. We recommend that you replace the
stones every two years.
Important.
If you cover the stove and fill the stone container incorrectly the unit may
cause a fire. Do not use the stove without sauna stones.
Cleaning and care
Switch off the stove and allow it to cool before you clean it.
Do not use scouring cleaning products to clean the stove.
Liquids
The sauna stove is suitable for sauna liquids.
Please read the following carefully:
• Only use water that meets the quality requirements for domestic water.
• Water that contains high levels of lime or iron will leave residue on the
stones and metal in the water tank.
• To prevent scalds caused by rising steam whilst pouring liquid over the
stones, liquids should always be poured from the side using a ladle.
• Dripping water may cause permanent marks on the cabin floor.
• Pour small amounts of liquid on to the stones if you pour too much liquid on
to them you may suffer scalds.
• Use as much liquid as you are comfortable with, but do not exceed a volume
of 15 g/m³ of cabin volume.
• The liquid should be poured straight on to the stones in the stove and must

be spread evenly over all the stones.
• If you use liquid concentrates (for example essential oils), follow the
instructions for use provided by the manufacturer.
• Using excessive concentrations of these products may result in explosions.
• Do not use mixtures of alcoholic drinks or other additives not recommended
for use in saunas as they pose a risk of fire, explosion and may be harmful.
• The warranty will be voided if you fail to follow these instructions.
Liquids may cause marks on metal surfaces and sauna stones.
Sauna liquids with citrus fragrance may cause rust patches as a result of their
acid content.
In this case you should only use products in the diluted form specified by the
manufacturer.

Troubleshooting

The stove will not heat up
•Have you activated all the necessary switches?
•Has the fuse in the domestic installation tripped?
•Have you set the temperature controller correctly?
•Defective sauna control unit (sensor breaker, see operating manual for the
control unit).
•RCCB trips – see the section entitled "Testing the insulation resistance"
The stove causes "cracking noises"
•The case parts and heating elements expand when the stove is heating up or
operating. The heating elements may move the sauna stones and cause
noises. Cracking noises are normal and are not grounds for complaint.
•Sauna stones split and cause an odor
•Use only sauna stones recommended by the manufacturer.
•Sauna stones are too old replace them.
The cabin does not get hot enough
•The sauna stove is too small
•Excessive temperature loss from the sauna cabin, for example due to poor or
lack of sealing.
•Incorrect display on the sauna thermometer. Mount the thermometer higher
and at a distance of approx. 3 cm from the sauna wall.
•Have a defective heating element (heating element does not glow) checked
and measured by an electrician.
