the sauna stove for the fi rst time to prevent causing any damage.

Important safety instructions

• The installation and electrical connection of the sauna equipment and other
electrical equipment may only be carried out by a licensed electrician.
(except P & P)
• Refer to the safety actions required by VDE 0100 § 49 DA/6 and VDE 0100
Part 703/11.82 §4. Even if you comply with the required safety actions it is
not possible to rule out the possibility of all accident risks.
• Follow the safety instructions to the letter to ensure that you can operate
your equipment safely.
• The sauna stove must be operated with a suitable external control unit.
• The bio sauna stove requires a sauna controller with a humidity module or a
separate additional humidity controller to activate the evaporator. Instructions
for installing and operating these units are provided in the manual supplied
with the respective controller.
• Only one sauna stove with the appropriate heating capacity may be installed
in the sauna cabin.(See table)

• The unit is not designed for use in public saunas.
• Caution – danger of burns. The case on the sauna stove and the stones get
very hot.
• If it is not installed correctly the unit may cause a fi re. Read the complete
assembly instructions with due care. Pay particular attention to the
dimensions and instructions.
• Only use sauna stones approved for use in saunas. Insert sauna stones
loosely; if the stones are inserted too tightly there is a danger of overheating.
• Do not operate the stove without sauna stones.
• Keep children away from the sauna stove. They may suffer burns.
• Seek medical advice about the sauna temperature and how long people with
medical problems, infants, children, pensioners and handicapped people
may stay in the sauna.

• Pour small amounts of liquid on to the stones; if you pour too much liquid on
to them you may suffer scalds. The quantity of liquid on the stones should
not exceed 15 g/m³ of cabin volume.
• Do not use the sauna to dry items, clothing or laundry. They may catch fi re.
• Do not place any items on the stove. They may catch fi re.
• Do not place any items, apart from the sauna controller's temperature
sensor, in the convection current of the stove.
• Metal surfaces may rust in a damp, saltwater climate.
• The stove may generate cracking noises while it is heating up and while it is
operating (metal heating elements and stones expanding)
• Sauna equipment and sauna cabins may only be made of suitable, low resin
and untreated materials (for example Norway spruce, poplar or linden).
• The maximum temperature for the wall and ceiling of the sauna cabin is
+140°C.
• Over time the cabin walls will become darker near the sauna stove than in
the rest of the cabin; this is normal. Complaints about this will not be
accepted.
• The minimum height of the sauna cabin must be 1.75m (interior height)
• Ventilation openings must be provided in every sauna cabin. The ventilation
opening must be on the wall directly below the sauna stove approx. 5-10 cm
above fl oor level. The waste air must be discharged through an opening
diagonally opposite the stove in the rear wall between the top and bottom
benches. The ventilation openings must not be sealed. The cabin light and
its installation must have a splash-proof design and be suitable for an
ambient temperature of 140°C. Therefore only an approved sauna light with
max. 40W may be installed with the sauna stove.

Installation instructions

Important.
Do not use any fl oor coverings under the stove if they are made of
infl ammable material such as wood, plastic, etc. Ceramic tiles are ideal for use
in a sauna. The area under the stove may suffer discoloration, even on non-fl am-
mable fl ooring or joint material. No compensation will be paid for discoloration
or damage to fl ooring or the sauna walls. The distance between the rear of the
stove and the cabin wall depends on the design (wall mounting). The stove must
be connected to the electricity supply before it is mounted on the wall holder. The
sauna stove is designed for cabin sizes up to 9-14m³.

Installing the sauna oven

• Affi x the feet on the rear wall of the oven the screws supplied
(4 screws M5 x 12).
• Fasten the bottom panel to the inner sheath with 4 self-tapping screws
3.9 x 9.5.
• Thread the mains cable into the terminal box through the hole provided for it.
• After making the electrical connection of the mains cable, close the cover
on the terminal box again (with the spacer on the outside).
• Position the sauna oven in front of the air intake opening. Secure the wall
bracket to the wall of the cabin using the wood screws supplied. Insert the
cabine size
stone grate (see description entitled "Placing the sauna stones on the stone
[m³]
grate", section entitled "Cleaning and care").
• For the installation of the sauna oven ensure that the vertical distance
between the top of the sauna oven and the ceiling of the sauna booth is
< 7 m
3
at least 110 cm and the horizontal (lateral) distance between the oven and the
6-14 m
3
wall of the booth is at least 7 cm. The distance between the bottom of the
oven and the fl oor depends on the design of the oven (adjustable feet).
However, it should be ensured that the oven is not placed on a fl oor made of
highly infl ammable material (wood, plastic fl ooring, etc.). Ideally ceramic tiles
or the like should be used in the sauna. The distance between the rear wall of
the oven and the wall of the booth also depends on the design (wall bracket).
• The distance between the oven safety grille or the bench and other
infl ammable materials from the oven must be at least 7 cm. The height of the
safety grille must be equal to the height of the oven at the front.
