Safety
Read all health and safety instructions. If in doubt as to the
advisability of using your infrared sauna, consult with your physician
prior to use. If you feel light-headed or heat exhaustion during
session, exit the sauna immediately.
1. Read and follow all instructions carefully.
2. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed.
3. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the sauna
unless they are closely supervised at all.
4. Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercise. Wait
at least 30 minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.
5. Excessive temperature has a high potential for causing fetal damage
during the early months of pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly pregnant
women should contact their physician prior to using the sauna.
6. Hyperthermia Danger: Prolonged exposure to hot air will induce
hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of
the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body
temperature of 37ºC (98.6ºF). While hyperthermia has many health
benefits, it is important not to allow your body’s core temperature to
rise above 103ºF. Symptoms of excessive hyperthermia include
dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive
hyperthermia may include failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize
the need to exit, unawareness of impending hazard, fetal damage in
pregnant women, physical inability to exit the sauna, and
unconsciousness.
7. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications prior to or during the sauna
session may lead to unconsciousness.
8. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart
disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or
diabetes should consult a physician prior to using the sauna.
