How to heat a sauna

Follow the little video guide of Sol og Strand to learn how to use a sauna.


∎ Positioning of the control panel
In most cases, the control panel is positioned under the front of the stove, but normally it is the same panel as the one shown in the video.

The sauna comprises two buttons. One is an on/off button with a timer function. The other one is a thermostat button.

∎ On, off and timer function
The on/off button has two numbered scales:

1. The first numbered scale from 1 to 4 is an on function. If you turn it e.g. to 2, the sauna oven will be on for 2 hours.

2. If you go past the digit 4, you enter the second scale from 1 to 8. If it is set on 8, it will last 8 hours until the stove starts heating.

If you just want to use the stove here and now, only operate within the scale 1 to 4.

∎ Thermostat button
Choose the wanted temperature on the thermostat button. The thermostat rises to a maximum of 80 degrees Celsius.

When the sauna is on, it will take from half an hour to one hour until the wanted temperature has been reached.

∎ Turn off the sauna
When the sauna is not in use, switch both buttons to 0.


► Please note!
If the sauna is new, warm resin may flow from the wood. Please notice that the soft resin may cause burns.

Do not use coloured towels in the sauna, as the colour may smudge the wood benches.

Do not pour water on the stove, unless it is clearly stated on a bill in the holiday home. If you pour water on a sauna stove, this may cause a short-circuit or destroy the heater of the stove.
