To reduce the risk of injury:
a. The wet surfaces of steam enclosures may be slippery. Use care when entering or
leaving.
b. The steam head is hot. Do not touch the steam head and avoid the steam near the
steam head.
c. Prolonged use of the steam system can raise excessively the internal human body
temperature and impair the body’s ability to regulate its internal temperature
(hyperthermia).
WARNING!
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several
degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6° F. The symptoms of hyperthermia
include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy,
drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:
a) Failure to perceive heat;
b) Failure to recognize the need to exit the steam bath;
c) Unawareness of impending risk;
d) Fetal damage in pregnant women;
e) Physical inability to exit the steam bath; and
f) Unconsciousness.
WARNING!
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of hyperthermia.
Limit your use of steam to 10 – 15 minutes until you are certain of your body’s reaction.
Excessive temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early
months of pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician
regarding correct exposure.
Caution: Do not place wire in close proximity to hot water or steam pipes.
Attention: If the installation and operation instruction are not read or understood, do not

select the type of steam unit required. Otherwise, the manufacturer will not be responsible for the
selection of the type of steam unit.
Maintenance of the steam engine
Important: Perform water discharge operation after each use.
1. Wait for the completion of automatic water discharge after each time of using the steam engine to
make sure the water in the tank is discharged completely before cutting off power supply.
2. There should not be any leakage or damage among the steam engine, steam nozzle, components
and pipes. They should be checked monthly.
3. Clean the water supply pipes of the steam engine once a year.
4. Check all the connections, faucets and connection terminal to see whether they become loose or
are damaged due to overheating.
5. Check the furring/scaling accumulated in the water tank and electric heating tube. If the furring
is thick, clean it (use diluted lemon acid to soak for 15-30 minutes).
6. Remove the water level sensory needle four times per year to clean the furring/scaling in the
needle.
