de-scaling agent to work for approximately 1 hour, then empty
and flush the reservoir generously.
• Clean the herb bowl and fragrance cup regularly. Remove the
entire top section and rinse it under running water. Clean the
bottom of the reservoir as needed.
• During any steam bath, the outlet vent should always be closed
or only slightly open.
HOW TO GET THE MOST
OUT OF YOUR SAUNA
• Always shower before going into the sauna.
• Take a towel in with you to sit on. Stay inside the sauna only as
long as it feels pleasant. Go out now and then to cool off and
freshen up with a quick shower.
• Show consideration for other bathers. Don't set the temperature
higher than is pleasant for all those using the sauna.
• Young children love saunas. Let them splash about with a tub of
water on the floor or the lower benches where it is somewhat
cooler. But remember to keep an eye on them at all times.
• Round off your sauna with a long, cool shower.
• Never get dressed right after your sauna. This will only cause
you to perspire. Relax, treat yourself to a cold drink and enjoy a
sensation of true well-being. Don't get dressed until your body
has cooled down and your pores have closed once again.
Traditional sauna bathing - dry saunas and wet
saunas.
Dry and wet saunas are bathing forms whose history is shrouded
in the mists of time. These hot baths are best enjoyed at
temperatures between 70°C and 90°C (158°F and 194°F).
In dry saunas, where the stones are not sprinkled with water, the
relative humidity (RH) is as low as 5–10%.
In wet saunas, when water is ladled on the hot stones from time to
time, the relative humidity rises steeply to 10–30%, and you can
feel how the quivering waves of heat massage their way into your
skin. A few drops of Tylö Sauna Fragrance added to the water
poured over the stones give a pleasantly invigorating sensation,
clearing nasal cavities and helping you breathe more easily.
Round off your sauna with the intensive tingling sensation you get
when you pour even greater amounts of water over the stones.
Wet saunas are considered by most people to be the traditional
way to enjoy a sauna, and they are the most popular too.
Important! Use ordinary drinking water. Salt-water or brackish
water will damage the heating elements. Never hose down the
heater. Devices that provide continuous water sprinkling are not
permissible.
Steam and herbal saunas (Tylarium).
A steam sauna is a milder version, at only 45–70°C (113°F-158°F),
and with a continual steam production that maintains a high
relative humidity of 20–65%.
The sauna heater constantly adapts humidity levels to the choosen
setting. You can change the humidity at any time using the RH
button on the control panel. No matter what value you have set,
you can also change the humidity by reducing or increasing the
opening of the air outlet vent. To briefly increase the humidity, you
can pour a ladlefull of water over the hot stones.
For a fragrant, refreshing herbal sauna, put some fresh or dried
herbs and spices in the herb bowl (B, Fig. 15), then relax and enjoy
the revitalising scents in a steaming tropical climate. Test your own
compositions: birch leaves, lavender, mint, spices, tea bags (!) and
other exciting scents. You can also sprinkle a few drops of Tylö
Sauna Fragrance in the scent cup (C, Fig. 15) – never in the herb
bowl (B, Fig. 15) or the water reservoir (A, Fig. 15). There are six
fragrances: Eucalyptus, Mint, Menthol, Pine, Lemon and Birch.
Tylö Sauna Fragrances can also be added to the water you splash
over the stones.

TYLARIUM™
The unique combination of both traditional saunas and soft, mild
steam baths in the same sauna room is also called Tylarium. Use
the electronic control panel to select the kind of sauna you want,
along with the desired temperature and time. Then sit back, relax
and enjoy the exquisite bath. Once in a while, add some
rejuvenating herbs or other balsam fragrances to create a new
sauna sensation.
