2. Safety Information

Before installing and operating the sauna stove, please observe the following safety precautions:

• Electrical Installation: The 3.6kW output of this sauna stove requires dedicated indoor electrical wiring. It is not compatible with standard household outlets, which typically support a maximum of 1.5kW. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes.
• Placement: Install the sauna stove in a high-temperature resistant and well-ventilated location. Maintain a minimum safety distance of 10 cm (approximately 4 inches) from the floor and surrounding walls to ensure proper air circulation and prevent fire hazards.
• Sauna Stones: Only use dedicated sauna stones designed for electric sauna heaters. Do not use ordinary rocks or other materials, as they may crack and cause injury or damage. Sauna stones are sold separately.
• Water Application (Lōuryu): When performing lōuryu, pour water slowly and carefully onto the hot sauna stones. Avoid pouring excessive amounts of water at once, as this can create a sudden burst of steam and potentially cause burns.
• Supervision: Do not leave the sauna stove unattended while in operation. Keep children and pets away from the heater.
• Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in the sauna room to prevent oxygen depletion and carbon monoxide buildup.
• Maintenance: Regularly inspect the heater for any signs of damage or wear. Disconnect power before performing any maintenance.

4. Setup

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your sauna stove.

4.1 Electrical Requirements

• Power: Single-phase 3-wire 110V, 3.6kW.
• Voltage: 110V.
• Current: 15 Amps.
• Wiring: Due to the high power output (3.6kW), this unit requires dedicated indoor electrical wiring. It cannot be plugged into a standard household outlet (which typically supports up to 1.5kW). Consult a qualified electrician for proper installation to ensure compliance with all local electrical codes and safety standards.

4.2 Mounting the Sauna Stove

The sauna stove is designed for wall-mounting. Follow these guidelines for installation:

• Location: Choose a location within the sauna room that is resistant to high temperatures and provides adequate ventilation. Avoid placing it directly under a window or near flammable materials.
• Clearance: Ensure a minimum safety distance of 10 cm (approximately 4 inches) from the floor and any adjacent walls or benches. This allows for proper air circulation and heat dissipation.
• Wall Structure: The wall must be capable of supporting the weight of the sauna stove (approx. 8.6 kg) plus the weight of the sauna stones (up to 10 kg). Use appropriate mounting hardware for your wall type.
• Dimensions: The unit measures approximately 32 cm (width) x 21 cm (depth) x 52 cm (height). Plan your installation space accordingly.

4.3 Loading Sauna Stones

Once the heater is securely mounted and electrically connected, carefully place the sauna stones into the designated stone compartment. Ensure the stones are clean and dry before loading. Do not pack them too tightly, as this can impede airflow and heating efficiency. The maximum load capacity for sauna stones is 10 kg.

5. Operating Instructions

The Mxmoonant sauna stove features simple controls for temperature and time settings.

5.1 Control Knobs

The sauna stove is equipped with two rotary knobs on the front panel:

• Temperature Control Knob: Adjusts the desired sauna temperature. The minimum temperature setting is 40°C. Rotate clockwise to increase temperature.
• Time Control Knob: Sets the operating duration of the sauna stove. Rotate clockwise to set the desired time.

5.2 Dry Sauna Operation

For a dry sauna experience, simply set your desired temperature and time using the control knobs. The heater will warm the sauna room to the set temperature. Do not pour water on the stones during dry sauna operation.

5.3 Wet Sauna (Lōuryu) Operation

To enjoy a wet sauna with lōuryu, ensure you have dedicated sauna stones placed in the heater. Once the stones are hot, carefully pour a small amount of water over them using a ladle. This will create steam, increasing the humidity in the sauna room. You can adjust the amount of steam by varying the amount of water poured. Always pour water slowly and avoid splashing.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your sauna stove.

• Cleaning: Periodically wipe the exterior of the heater with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the heater is cool and disconnected from power before cleaning.
• Sauna Stones: Inspect sauna stones regularly for signs of cracking or deterioration. Replace any damaged stones to maintain heating efficiency and safety. Rearrange stones periodically to ensure even heating and airflow.
• Ventilation: Ensure that the air vents around the heater are not obstructed by debris or lint.
• Electrical Connections: Annually, have a qualified electrician inspect the electrical connections for any signs of wear or loosening.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your sauna stove, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Heater Not Turning On:
  • Check if the power supply is connected and the circuit breaker has not tripped.
  • Ensure the time control knob is set to an operating duration.
  • Verify that the temperature control knob is set above the minimum temperature.
• Insufficient Heating:
  • Check if the sauna room size is within the recommended 3-4 square meters for the 3.6kW model.
  • Ensure the sauna stones are properly arranged and not obstructing airflow.
  • Verify that the sauna room is adequately insulated and sealed to prevent heat loss.
• Overheat Protection Activated:
  • If the heater shuts off unexpectedly, it may be due to the overheat protection. Allow the unit to cool down completely.
  • Check for any obstructions around the heater that might be blocking ventilation.
  • Ensure the sauna room temperature is not excessively high.
• Unusual Noises or Odors:
  • Immediately turn off the heater and disconnect power.
  • Inspect for any foreign objects or damaged components. Contact customer support if the issue persists.
