SaunaPod Safety GuidelinesUpdated 23 days ago

  • Before Every Use:

    • Check Tubing: Always ensure the tubing attached to the steamer is free of clogs or folds. Verify that steam can flow freely from the SmartSteam Unit to the steam dispenser.

    • Secure Lid: Confirm that the lid of the SmartSteam Unit is firmly twisted clockwise into the grooves to prevent any steam leakage.

    • Water Level: Do not exceed the maximum fill line when adding water to the SmartSteam chamber. Overfilling can lead to improper operation or damage.

  • During Operation:

    • Heat Levels: Begin at heat levels 1-5 and gradually increase to levels 6-7 as desired. Generally, 15-20 minutes is recommended per session, but this can vary based on individual health and tolerance. Avoid long sessions as they can lead to overheating or dehydration.

    • Avoid Touching Hot Surfaces: Never touch or move the SmartSteam unit or the steam dispenser during or immediately after use, as they become extremely hot.

    • Powering Off: To turn off the steam unit only, switch it off at the electrical outlet or by using the remote control. Do not touch the steam device directly.

    • Sauna Interior: Be cautious of the steam dispenser while inside the sauna, as it will be very hot.

    • Heating Issues: If your sauna does not heat up within 15 minutes, unplug it immediately. Allow at least 15-20 minutes for the unit to cool down before investigating the issue.

    • Steam Leaks: If you notice steam escaping from the SmartSteam Unit, do not touch the device. Unplug it immediately and wait at least 15-20 minutes before attempting to inspect or adjust it.

    • Lid Safety: Do not open the lid of the steamer while it is in operation.

    • Movement with Hot Liquids: Never move the steamer while it contains hot liquids.

    • Sauna Session Duration: Do not exceed 60 minutes inside the sauna.

    • Controller: Do not bring the remote controller inside the sauna, as it is not waterproof.

  • After Use:

    • Tubing Check: After each use, double-check the tubing for any obstructions to ensure safe operation for future sessions.

    • Unplugging: Always unplug the SmartSteam unit from the wall after use.

    • Cooling Down: Always allow the steamer to cool completely before cleaning or touching it.

  • Important Health & Safety Advisory:

    • Consult a Professional: Always consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating heat therapy into your routine, especially if you have any underlying health conditions.

    • Not a Medical Device: This product is not a medical device and is not intended to be used as one.

    • Hydration: Ensure you are well-hydrated before entering the SaunaPod.

    • Alcohol and Medication: Avoid using the sauna if you have consumed alcohol or are under the influence of medications that affect your ability to sweat or your sensitivity to heat.

    • Children and Pets: Keep children and pets away from the sauna to prevent accidents.

    • Electrical Safety: Ensure the SaunaPod is properly set up and connected to a suitable power source. Make sure the sauna and its electrical components are dry and free from damage
