If you are unsure about anything please contact someone from either the Oceanic Saunas sales team or the technical department before continuing. 1. Safety Precautions Please read these precautions before installing the sauna equipment. If you have any questions or concerns ask a member of staff before using the sauna. • Do not wire the infrared controls on a multi plug or multi socket extension lead. • Read operating instructions before turning on the sauna. • Do not cover the heaters as this could cause a fire. • Do not touch the heaters, they are very hot while the sauna is on. • Elderly persons, pregnant women, or these suffering heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes or not in good health are advised to seek medical opinion before using a sauna room. • Do not smoke in the sauna room; • Avoid using the sauna room immediately after strenuous exercise; • Do not use the sauna room when under the influence of alcohol; • Leave the sauna room at once if you feel sleepy, sick or uncomfortable; • Ensure there is good ventilation for the sauna room • We do not recommend this product is used by children under 16years old unless they are supervised by an adult • This appliance is not intended for use by persons including children with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience unless they have been given supervisor or instruction concerning the use by a person responsible for their safety • Commercial operators should post a notice of these precautions in a prominent position. 2. System Overview 2.1. Basic Overview Diagram 230V Mains Supply Isolator Switch (Commercial Unit Only) Control Box 240V Connections to IR heaters Low Voltage Connections: Keypad / Temperature Sensors/lighting/ controls/music etc Oceanic

4 2.2. Infrared Heaters Two types of infrared heater are available, vertical and horizontally mounted units. Both units incorporate a single 300W infrared element, reflector and wiring socket housed in a timber surround with a perforated protective cover. Each unit is individually plugged into the control box via a 3m 240V cable supplied. If a longer length of cable is required please contact the sales team and specify the correct length. The vertical units are to be installed behind or in front of the seating position at around back / chest height around 850mm from floor level to centre of the unit. Horizontal Units are to be positioned beneath bench at low level ~ 250mm from floor level. The quantity of heaters required will depend upon the size of the sauna and how many people it is intended for. See Sauna Layout for further information. 2.3. Control Box The control box contains the relays for switching the IR Heaters on/off along with the main circuit board for controlling inputs from the keypad, sensors etc. This box is typically mounted on top of the sauna but can also be located on the side wall (externally). The location will affect the required cable lengths to the heater units. The domestic unit can be plugged into a 13amp socket as the total power is limited to 8 units / 2400W. The commercial unit must be wired via an isolator switch and can power upto 12 heater units / 3600W 2.4. Keypad The oval shaped keypad is supplied with a 5m 6pin low voltage cable to connect directly to the control box. A 10m version of this cable is available if required and can be purchased online through the Oceanic website. The keypad should be mounted outside the sauna, typically at height of 1500mm from floor level for ease of use. The keypad is used to control the length of time the heaters are on for along with the desired air temperature inside the room. The keypad can also be used to control low voltage lighting circuit and speakers if installed (available separately from Oceanic website). 2.5. Temperature Sensor The temperature sensor is supplied with a 3m 4pin cable and should be located inside the sauna at a height of around 1300mm from floor level and not directly in front of an IR heater. 3. Infrared Sauna Design and Layout Before purchasing the IR units and controls we recommend carefully designing the layout of the sauna. Unlike traditional saunas Infrared saunas are typically designed for users to sit upright surrounded by the Infrared emitters. Normally there should be one vertical unit behind each user with possibly another somewhere infront and horizontal at low level behind. Vertical IR units are for behind and infront of the body above bench height. Horizontal units are for low level beneath the benches.

12 Mini Steam Generator The mini steam generator is an optional accessory for domestic infrared sauna cabins only, not for use in commercial cabins. It is powered and controlled independently from the infrared heaters but can be run simultaneously as the IR heaters are hermetically sealed. The generator is filled manually from above, there is a manual drain valve if you need to drain the generator. 9.1. Mini Steam Generator Safety Precautions i. The equipment must be installed vertically ii. Stop pouring water into the boiler when the high level LED light (A) turns on. Don’t let the water reach the holes in the top cover. You can release water using the valve at the bottom. iii. If overheat indicator LED light turns on, cut off the power supply and do not do not turn back on until the problem has been resolved. If in doubt please contact our technical team. 9.2.

14 9.6. Controls and Indicators 10. Mini Steam Generator Operation i. Once the mini steam generator has been installed correctly onto the wall and the power cable connected to a 13amp socket the unit is ready to use. ii. Turn the power on at the 13amp socket and press On/Off button on the Mini Steam Generator iii. Note that the LED C should be lit to show the tank is empty iv. Fill the generator with water from above using a water jug until A is lit. Do not overfill the genertor as the water may start to spit out of the top when heating. If this occurs manually drain some water out into a container using the drain valve a the bottom of the generator. v. The generator should now start to heat the water and the ‘Heat’ LED should be lit vi. You can adjust the amount of steam using the Power button to set the generator to 500W, 750W or maximum power 1000W. vii. Once the water level drops to C you can add more water to the generator. Be careful as the unit will not be very hot. viii. If you are adding aroma to the water this will alter the surface tension of the water and may cause it to spit when boiling into steam. If this happens either reduce the amount of overall liquid in the generator or reduce the amount of aroma in the water. Do not add neat aroma to the tank, ensure the aroma is diluted. Oceanic aromas are to be diluted 1 part aroma to 20 parts water. For every 1ltr of water only add a maximum of 50ml of aroma. ix. Ensure you drain the steam generator after the end of your session. 11. Mini Steam Generator Maintenance The single biggest problem with steam generation is the build up of scale resulting from dissolved solids within the water. Scaling can cause the elements to fail, the water level sensors not to function, premature failure of the O-rings resulting in leaks from around the elements. The extent of the problem will vary according to the degree of hardness in the local water supply. For all commercial operators we recommend the use of a water softener. Expect 2500 hours element life, this can be serious depleted by poor maintenance. All users must ensure a regular maintenance routine to descale the generator – the frequency of this will vary according to the degree of hardness in the local water supply and the amount of time the generator is used for. Check the water for hardness and arrange the descaling routine accordingly: - High levels of hardness descale once every 50 to 100 hours of operation. Medium levels of hardness descale once every 100 to 250 hours operation. Low levels of hardness descale once every 250 to 1000 hours of operation. To descale the generator use a solution of weak acid crystals (such as citric acid) mixed with water Citric acid can be purchased from: www.oceanic-saunas.co.uk
