Using Your Sauna; Additional Tips For Using Your Sauna - High tech health Transcend TR-2 Owner's Manual

USING YOUR SAUNA

Review all health and safety instructions. If in doubt as to the advisability of using your sauna,
consult with your doctor. If you feel light-headed or heat-exhausted during a session, exit the
sauna immediately.
1. Set the desired session temperature and time using the control panel (see Operating
Instructions).
2. Get inside your sauna as soon as it is warm enough for you to be comfortable
(approximately 5 to 10 minutes). Most people find 100 °F (36 °C) to be the perfect
temperature to get in and start their sauna session. The sauna temperature will
continue to rise until it reaches the maximum temperature set with the control panel.
3. Perspiration will usually begin within 10 to 15 minutes after stepping into the sauna.
4. We recommend that a sauna session does not exceed 30 minutes.
5. When the temperature reaches the level set on the control panel, the heaters will turn
off and on periodically in order to maintain the set temperature inside the sauna. The
heaters continue to emit far infrared as they cool.
6. The ceiling vent and/or fan can be used at any time to introduce fresh air into the
sauna. You can also open the door to introduce even more fresh air into the sauna.
Infrared's unique property of heating the body directly without heating the space in
between allows the users to enjoy all of its benefits while the vent or door of a sauna is
open for ventilation.
7. Always drink plenty of water before, during, and after a session. Doing so will replenish
fluids lost from the body through perspiration.
8. Choosing to take a hot shower or bath, or doing some light exercise prior to the sauna
session will further promote perspiration. However, dry off thoroughly before going into
the sauna because excessive water will stain or warp the wood. A warm to cool
shower after the session is refreshing and rinses perspiration from the body.
9. To absorb perspiration and keep the sauna tidy during the session, place a towel on
the bench and floor of the sauna. Keep an extra towel handy to wipe excess sweat
from your body.

ADDITIONAL TIPS FOR USING YOUR SAUNA

1. We suggest opening the roof vent and turning on the exhaust/air intake fan.
2. If you feel the need for more cooling, simply leave the door open until the air around
you feels comfortable enough.
3. Drink plenty of fluids prior to, during, and after your session. Use the time while waiting
to get into the sauna to drink some water.
4. Drink mineral-rich water to help maintain electrolytes in the body that are lost with the
sweat, as well as promote increased toxin excretion via the urine and stool.
