Using the Steamer

1.4.
The Combi Heater includes a Steamer NS with a capacity of 5 liters of water. It produces
steam for about 2 hours when filled with 5 liters of water and setting MAX on the external
control unit.
To ensure ideal humidity, the sauna temperature should be between 40 and 50º C, and the
steamer should be left on for about 30 minutes to pre-heat the sauna and produce sufficient
amount of steam before starting bathing.

1.4.1. Filling the water tank

Water can be poured through the openings by removing the steamer cover first (section
1.1.2). The capacity of the tank is 5 liters.
If FILL appears on the external control unit's display, cold household tap water shall be
poured through the openings of the steamer cover. Do not attempt to remove the cover as it
is extremely hot.
Always before turning on the steamer, make sure that sufficient amount of water is in the
tank.

1.4.2. Low water level

The Combi Heater has a low water detection system which reminds to refill water before the
steamer tank runs dry. The low water detection system will automatically turn off the steamer
heater at about 1 liter and a FILL message is displayed together with a buzzer tone on the
external control unit. Observe caution while refilling water as the steamer tank is still hot
(section 1.4.1). After refilling water, the steam generator heater turns on again after a short
while.
If no water is refilled upon the FILL message appears on the display of the control unit, the
steamer will turn on again after a few minutes. The FILL message is repeatedly displayed until
water is filled in the tank or the unit is turned off. In order to preserve the heating plate and
life span of the combi heater avoid "dry boiling" of the steamer tank.
1.5.

Draining and cleaning the water tank

In order to ensure best water quality the water tank must always be emptied after use. This
procedure removes impurities condensed in the tank as result of evaporation. The water
should be drained only after cooling down since it is very hot immediately after using the
steamer. To drain the tank turn the ball valve handle at the bottom of the steam generator tank
counterclockwise until water flows. Provide a container (i.e. a bowl) to collect the water. Before
cleaning the inside of the water tank remove its cover first (section 1.1.3). Do not attempt to
clean the inside of the tank by hand and a cloth to avoid injuries caused by the tank's edges. To
clean the tank separation plate, lift it up and clean it with water and a household brush (Fig. 4).
Finally flush the tank with water and close the ball valve by turning its handle clockwise. Do not
use a steel brush as it might damage the tank wall or bottom heating plate. Do not forget to
refill water before turning the steamer on again. Do not let the steamer water tank run dry as an
alternative method of draining the water. The lifespan of your Combi Heater will be shortened.
Impurities from water, e.g. lime, will accumulate on the walls of the steamer's water tank. SAWO
Decalcifying Solution is recommended to use to remove the hard calcuim deposits on the tank.
The outside of the steamer tank should be cleaned with a damp cloth. When cleaning the
outside, ensure that the Combi Heater's power switch is in off position.
