Install the sauna on a perfectly flat floor.
The sauna must remain in a dry area.
Do not use it near a source of water (bath, damp floor, swimming pool).
Do not use liquid cleaning products.
Disconnect the sauna before cleaning and use a wet rag. (see Maintenance section)
Protect the sauna’s electrical cable to avoid it being crushed or pinched.
Prior to replacing certain components, ensure that they are specified by the manufacturer or
thatthey have the same features as the original parts. Incorrect replacement can cause a fire,
a shortcircuit or damage to the sauna. We strongly recommend using a qualified technician.
To avoid the risk of burns or electric shocks, do not use any metal tools.
Do not put animals in the sauna.
Do not leave the sauna switched on without supervision.
Do not leave the sauna switched on for more than 3 hours at a time to avoid premature
deterioration of the equipment. After 3 hours continuous usage, switch off the sauna for at
least one hour.
We recommend that you do not install a locking system on the sauna door.
Check compliance of your electrical installation prior to connecting your sauna to the power
supply.

INSTALLATION
Read the assembly instructions carefully before starting assembly.
Electrical connections
The electrical installation of the stove must be carried out by a professional and sized
according to the power of the stove. The stove is thus connected with its own electric line,
not supplied as it depends on your installation.
This installation must be planned before mounting the cabin.
The entire internal electrical installation of the sauna (lights, LEDs, etc.) is connected directly to the electric stove, the electric cables being pre-wired within the cabin.

General explanations on the operation of the Harvia stove:
The temperature rise in the sauna is done in stages. A booth takes on average 30 to
45 minutes to reach a temperature of 65-70 ° C. During this period, the lava stones
store heat.
To reach higher temperatures, it is necessary to add water to the stones. The steam
thus generated will allow a gradual and measured increase in temperature.
