User guide

Control panel Pure and Elite, see separate guide.

Control panel

User guide: supplied with control panel. The steam generator is
controlled electronically by the following compatible models:
Elite - the Tylö Elite control panel has a processor and an operati-
ve system which enables many advanced functions. In addition to
a number of personal settings, the Elite can also be programmed
to suit your personal timetable. Added to this are such functions
as extra fans, fragrance pumps and lighting. The panel has ener-
gy-saving functions and the possibility of connection to a wireless
network. It can be located inside or outside the steam room.
Pure - Touch panel with basic functions, to be located inside or
outside the steam room.

Main power switch

The main power switch is located on the underside of the steam
generator (Fig. 18) (Fig. 19). It should only be used when the
system will be disconnected for a long period.
The automatic emptying function of the steam generator will stop
if the power supply is disconnected for any reason.

Automatic emptying

The steam generator empties out part of its water automatically
after 4 hours (factory setting). This automation considerably redu-
ces the build-up of limescale and pollutants in the water tank.
For the automatic emptying and fl ushing to work, the circuit
breaker between the distribution board and the steam generator
or main power switch must not be switched off before at least 70
minutes have elapsed since the timer on the control panel has
timed out.
WARNING! The water in the tank
is hot

Descaling

Some of the limescale released into the steam generator is fl us-
hed out during automatic emptying and fl ushing, but some rema-
ins. Tylö water softener (Tylö Item no. 9090 8025) fi lters out the
limescale and thus prevents it from reaching the steam generator,
which directly contributes to a longer life. Empty the tank after
each use of the sauna. To extend the unit's life and reduce the
need for manual descaling, a steam generator for public use must
be connected to a water softener to remove limescale. This is
particularly important if the water hardness is over 4°dH (German
water hardness degrees). The descaling agent must not produce
foam or give off harmful chemicals. This may cause an incorrect
water level to be indicated in the tank, triggering the temperature
cut-out (after some time the element will break).
Manual descaling must be performed regularly in accordance with
the following table.

The need for manual descaling depends on water quality, the
power of the steam generator and the operating time. In order
to test the degree of hardness, follow the accompanying EASY
TEST instructions and then comply with the recommendations in
accordance with
Limescale is the most prevalent cause of operational breakdown.
It is therefore important to comply with the descaling intervals in
the care and maintenance instructions.
With normal private use, there is very little need for descaling
unless the water is very hard. Nevertheless, the steam generator
should be descaled at least twice a year. This releases limescale
and other deposits that have become attached to the tank walls
and heating element.
Note! The steam room must
NOT be used during descaling!
Instructions for descaling the Tylö Steam generator:
• Switch on the steam generator and leave it running until the
water in the tank begins to boil.
• Switch off the steam generator at the control panel and wait
about 5 minutes.
• Slacken the lock nut on the 3-way connection at the top of
the steam generator. Use a funnel to pour the descaling
agent into the tank via the 3-way connection.
• Screw the lock nut on the 3-way connection into place and
allow time for the descaling agent to work.
• After about 1 hour, the steam generator will automatically
empty and fl ush the tank clean, and is then ready for use
again.
If you want the descaling to work for a longer time, use the power
switch to switch off the steam generator. The steam generator will
empty out as soon as the power is switched back on.
If there is a large amount of limescale in the steam generator, it
will be necessary to perform descaling several times repeatedly,
followed by fl ushing each time.
Tylö Solvent Descaler is non-toxic, odor-free and causes no da-
mage to the steam generator or its components.
