CHOOSING A LOCATION<br />
In determining a location for your <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong>, there are two important issues to keep in mind.<br />
First, the sauna should always be placed on a level surface. Second, the sauna must be placed in a dry area.<br />
Moisture may cause damages to the interior and exterior of the sauna. Basement, attic, garage, playroom, spare<br />
bedroom, new extension and garden chalet are just a few of possible locations for your sauna. <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong>’s<br />
beautiful and simple cedar wooden exterior will compliment the interior of your house beautifully. If you prefer an<br />
outdoor environment, you must use a cover (see page 17) to protect your sauna. Do not place the sauna on a<br />
surface that easily gets wet. Place the sauna on a deck to protect it from moisture on the ground.<br />
Installation requirements for <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> are as follows:<br />
1. <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> is intended to be a self-contained and freestanding unit. It must not be built into to any structure.<br />
2. There should be a minimum of 5-inch clearance from the wall on all sides of the unit to allow easy access to<br />
the main power cord.<br />
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE<br />
1. Before using your <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> for the first time, clean the inside of the sauna with a damp<br />
cloth. When cleaning the exterior, use a furniture polish.<br />
2. To absorb perspiration during a sauna session, we recommend placing a towel on the floor and on the bench<br />
of the sauna. In order to maintain a clean and pleasant atmosphere inside of your sauna, do not leave damp<br />
towels on the bench or floor. Remove them immediately after the session is over.<br />
3. Scratches and stains on the sauna can be removed by simply using a fine grade sandpaper over the damaged<br />
area.<br />
4. A customized <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> Cover is available as an accessory to all models. Use of this protective<br />
storage cover will not only preserve the natural beauty of the sauna, but will also help in maintaining years of<br />
continuous enjoyment.<br />
5. We recommend applying a heavy furniture polish to the outside of the sauna before putting the cover on. Use<br />
of a polish will create a barrier for better protection.<br />

[P.17] Enjoying Your <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong><br />
(16) ENJOY YOUR SAUNA!<br />
Plug in the main power cord into the wall outlet and power up your sauna. All you have to do now<br />
is to pop in your favorite CD in CD player (on the sauna), grab some towels and a glass of water,<br />
and step into <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> to SWEAT YOUR WAY TO BETTER HEALTH!<br />
��� The <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> utilizes infrared heat. <strong>Infrared</strong> heat waves reach the body directly<br />
without having to heat the intervening air inside the sauna. With this system, breathing is more comfortable<br />
and the atmosphere inside the sauna is more enjoyable than in conventional saunas. Because the infrared<br />
heat energy is warming the body directly (and not the air, walls, and fixtures within the sauna), a lower<br />
temperature setting can be used to achieve the desired results in a short session of 20 to 30 minutes.<br />
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE<br />
Review all health and safety instructions. If in doubt as to the advisability of using your infrared sauna,<br />
consult with your physician. If you feel light-headed or heat-exhausted during a session, exit the sauna<br />
immediately.<br />
1. Select the desired session temperature and time using the control panel (See page 12 & 13).<br />
2. Allow approximately 10<br />
to 15 minutes for the<br />
sauna to warm up before<br />
beginning a session.<br />
3. Perspiration will begin<br />
within 10 to 15 minutes<br />
after stepping into the<br />
unit.<br />
4. We recommend that a<br />
sauna session does not<br />
exceed 30 minutes.<br />
5. When the temperature<br />
reaches the level set on<br />
the control panel, the<br />
heaters will turn off and<br />
on periodically in order<br />
to maintain the desired<br />
temperature level inside<br />
of the sauna.<br />
6. The ceiling vent(s) on the<br />
top panel can be opened<br />
at any time to introduce<br />
fresh air into the sauna.<br />
7. <strong>Infrared</strong>’s unique property<br />
of direct penetration into<br />
the body without heating<br />
the intervening space inbetween<br />
allows the users<br />
to enjoy all of its benefits<br />
while the door or window<br />
of a sauna is open for<br />
ventilation.<br />
8. Always drink plenty of<br />
water before, during, and<br />
after a session. Doing so<br />
will replenish lost fluids<br />
from the body through<br />
perspiration.<br />
9. Choosing to take a hot shower or bath prior to the sauna session will further promote perspiration.<br />
However, dry off thoroughly before going into the sauna because excessive water will stain or warp the<br />
wood. A shower after the session is refreshing and rinses perspiration from the body.<br />
10. To absorb perspiration and keep the sauna tidy during the session, place a towel on the bench and floor<br />
of the sauna. Keep one towel handy to wipe excessive sweat from your body.<br />
11. The interior of the <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong> is made of the finest Western Canadian Red Cedar. It is<br />
very aromatic and adds to the enjoyment of your sauna session. If the fragrance of the fresh wood is too<br />
strong during the first few months of usage, wipe the wood with a damp cloth to minimize the aroma.

[P.20]<br />
Tips for Using Your <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Mate</strong> <strong>Sauna</strong><br />
1. To regulate the temperature inside the sauna during your session, use the roof vent.<br />
2. If you feel the need for more cooling, simply leave the door open until the air around you feels<br />
comfortable enough.<br />
3. Drink plenty of fluids prior to, during, and after your session.<br />
4. If you take a hot/warm shower or bath before your sauna session, you may perspire more. Try<br />
it with and without bathing or showering first to determine which way you prefer.<br />
5. To utilize the sauna’s heat therapy effect, give your hair a hot oil treatment while in the sauna.<br />
Put oil or treatment into your hair and wrap it with towel. After the session is over, rinse your<br />
hair thoroughly.<br />
6. Use at least 2-3 towels. Sit on one towel folded over several times for added cushioning. Put<br />
another towel on the floor to absorb extra sweat. A third towel draped over the knees may aid<br />
you in comfort and is useful to towel off sweat.<br />
7. Be sure to towel off excess sweat during your session to help the body perspire more freely.<br />
8. To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas while in sauna to help heal<br />
faster.<br />
9. Do not put any lotions or oils on the body or face when using the sauna. This may block the<br />
pores and hinder perspiration.<br />
10. Shaving your face or legs with a razor while profusely sweating in a sauna yields an incredibly<br />
smooth result without the use of gels or foams.<br />
11. Do not eat anything at least an hour before your sauna session. It is better to go in the sauna<br />
on an empty stomach. You are more likely to feel uncomfortable sitting in a sauna with a full<br />
stomach.<br />
12. To make the most out of your sauna session, work your muscles while in the sauna. Stretch<br />
your arms and legs, massage your neck, massage your feet, etc.<br />
13. You can benefit from the relaxing and soothing effects of a regular sauna session by going to<br />
sleep afterwards. The peaceful and relaxed state rendered by a sauna session will help you<br />
sleep easier and better.<br />
14. At the first sign of cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in boosting<br />
your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of the viruses. Consult your<br />
physician for the proper treatment and care for this or any other medical conditions.<br />
15. To treat your ankles and feet more effectively, you must elevate them while inside the sauna.<br />
Any area that you wish to achieve a specific deep heating effect in should be moved as close to<br />
one of the heaters as feels comfortable.<br />
16. After the session is over, do not immediately jump into the shower. Since your body was heated<br />
up during the session, it will continue to sweat even after the heaters are off. Sit in the sauna<br />
with the door open and let the body cool off. Once you feel comfortable enough, take a warm<br />
(or cool) shower to rinse the perspiration off your body.
[P.21]<br />
Safety Instructions<br />
1. Read and follow all instructions carefully.<br />
2. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed.<br />
3. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the sauna unless they are closely supervised at<br />
all times.<br />
4. Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercise. Wait at least 30 minutes to allow the<br />
body to cool down completely.<br />
5. Excessive temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of<br />
pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should contact their physician prior to using the<br />
sauna.<br />
6. Hyperthermia Danger: Prolonged exposure to hot air will induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs<br />
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body<br />
temperature of 37C (98.6F). While hyperthermia has many health benefits, it is important not to allow<br />
your body’s core temperature to rise above 103F. Symptoms of excessive hyperthermia include<br />
dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive hyperthermia may include failure<br />
to perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit, unawareness of impending hazard, fetal damage<br />
in pregnant women, physical inability to exit the sauna, and unconsciousness.<br />
7. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the sauna session may lead to<br />
unconsciousness.<br />
8. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure,<br />
circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician prior to using the sauna.<br />
9. Persons using medications should consult a physician before using the sauna since some medications<br />
may induce drowsiness while others may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.<br />
10. Exercise care when entering or exiting the sauna.<br />
11. Never sleep inside the sauna while the unit is in full operation.<br />
12. Do not use any type of cleaning agents on the interior of the sauna.<br />
13. Do not stack or store any objects on top of or inside the sauna.<br />
14. If power supply cord becomes damaged, it must immediately be replaced by the manufacturer or its<br />
agent or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.<br />
15. Do not use the unit during an electrical storm, as there is a remote risk of shock.<br />
16. Altering or tampering of any electrical connections on the power supply will void the manufacturer’s<br />
warranty.<br />
17. Dry your hands before handling electrical controls. Never unplug the power cord or adjust the controls<br />
with wet hands or when you have wet bare feet. A danger of electrical shock exists.<br />
18. Do not attempt any repair without consulting the manufacturer first. Unauthorized repair attempts will<br />
void manufacturer’s warranty.<br />
19. We strongly recommend the use of a GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) device in any<br />
potentially wet locations.<br />
20. The HEALTH MATE SAUNA is made of the finest Canadian Cedar. All natural wood products have<br />
variations in the color, the grain, and irregularities such as knots, and fine cracks. These characteristics<br />
are a part of the natural beauty of the wood, and in no way should be considered defective.<br />
21. We recommend turning the sauna on for the maximum time and temperature in order to burn off any<br />
factory dust prior to using the sauna for the first time. Following this procedure will make your first<br />
sauna session a pleasurable one.

[P.26] Troubleshooting Guide<br />
Problem: HOUSE BREAKER/FUSE IS TRIPPING.<br />
Solution:<br />
Check that the amperage of the breaker is correct for size of the sauna.<br />
Make sure that the circuit is not overloaded by having too many appliances on one circuit.<br />
Problem: DIGITAL CONTROLLER DISPLAY IS SHOWING AN ERROR CODE AND WILL NOT START.<br />
Solution: Unplug sauna, wait one minute, and then plug back into power source. Try the procedure 3 times.<br />
Problem: THERE IS NO POWER TO SAUNA.<br />
Solution:<br />
Check to make sure that the main power cord is plugged into the wall outlet.<br />
Make sure that the house circuit breaker for that outlet is not tripped.<br />
Reset the circuit breaker switch and high limit switch located on the power supply (See Page 16).<br />
Lift open the wooden power supply cover located at the lower right corner of the front panel. Make<br />
sure the female end of the main power cord is plugged into the male outlet on the power supply.<br />
Problem: READING LIGHT IS NOT WORKING.<br />
Solution:<br />
Check if the light has been manually turned off by pressing the “LAMP” button on the keypad while the<br />
sauna is turned on. Lamp will only operate while sauna is turned on.<br />
Disconnect the main power cord from the sauna and change the light bulb. Access the bulb by<br />
removing one or two of the lens mounting screws located at each corner of the light fixture, and then<br />
lifting off the lens. Replace the bulb in a 120-Volt sauna with a 120-Volt/60-Watt bulb. 230-Volt<br />
saunas require a 230-Volt/60-Watt bulb (220-Volt or 240-Volt bulb is okay)<br />
Problem: REAR HEATERS (SIDE HEATERS ON XSE-4) AND BENCH HEATER(S) PRODUCE NO HEAT.<br />
Solution:<br />
Lift up the bench panel and check to see that the power cable from the floor panel is plugged into the<br />
male outlet on the rear panel.<br />
Lift open the wooden power supply cover located at the lower right corner of the front panel. Check to<br />
make sure that the power cord coming from inside the front of the bottom panel (with male plug) is<br />
plugged into the female outlet on the power supply.<br />
Problem: BENCH HEATER PRODUCES NO HEAT.<br />
Solution:<br />
The bench heater cable is not plugged tightly into the receptacle (outlet) on the wall under the bench.<br />
Round plug must be rotated clockwise to lock into place.<br />
Problem: BENCH HEATER IS NOT AS HOT AS THE FRONT AND REAR HEATERS.<br />
Solution:<br />
Problem:<br />
Solution:<br />
The bench heater is operating correctly. It is intentionally designed to produce less heat compared to<br />
the other heaters.<br />
WRONG A.C. POWER CORD (FEMALE END OF POWER CORD DOES NOT MATCH THE MALE END<br />
OF CABLE ON SAUNA)<br />
The power cord and the cable in the sauna floor near the power box do not attach or connect to each<br />
other. They both plug into the power supply located below the front heater (under a wooden cover)
[P.27] Troubleshooting Guide<br />
Problem:<br />
ALL 230-VOLT MODELS: THE CONTROL PANEL COMES ON AND APPEARS TO WORK, BUT THE<br />
TEMPERATURE ONLY GOES UP A FEW DEGREES NO MATTER HOW LONG THE SAUNA HAS BEEN<br />
ON FOR. THE LIGHT TURNS ON SOMETIMES OR NOT AT ALL, AND IS NOT VERY BRIGHT.<br />
Solution: The sauna is connected to 120-volt line instead of 230-volt.<br />
Problem: RADIO/CD PLAYER IS NOT WORKING.<br />
Solution:<br />
Make sure that the radio faceplate is seated properly.<br />
Check the fuse behind the radio (Please refer to the radio owner’s manual on how to remove it).<br />
Problem: THE CD PLAYER IS ON, BUT NO SOUND COMES FROM THE SPEAKERS.<br />
Solution:<br />
Open the wooden access cover on the top of the roof, in the front left corner. Make sure both of the<br />
speaker cables are plugged into the speaker jacks correctly.<br />
Refer to the instruction manual for the CD player and check to see that the volume is not turned all the<br />
way down, or that fader control is not set all the way to “Rear.”<br />
