MOUNT THE HEADRAIL 1. Hold the shade up near the brackets and insert the front
clip of the bracket into the front groove of the rail. 2. Make sure the shade
is centered in the window opening. 3. Push the rail back and up until the back
clips of the bracket are inserted in the back of the rail.
To REMOVE shade, reverse procedure. As you release the brackets, support the
head rail to keep it from falling.
Installing the Shade
Removing the Shade
Adjusting the Shade
1. Raise and lower the shade several times. 2. If the length is incorrect or
the bottom rail is not level, use the following steps to correct.
BOTTOM RAIL SHADE ADJUSTMENT 1. Lift bottomrail on the side to be adjusted.
This will take the weight off the cord. 2. Use a screwdriver or dime. · Turn
screw clockwise to lift that side of the shade. · Turn screw counter clockwise
to lower that side of the shade. · Half a revolution is 1/4″ adjustment
(maximum adjustment is 1/2″).
INTERMEDIATE RAIL SHADE ADJUSTMENT 1. Lift intermediate rail on side to be
adjusted. This will take the weight off the cord. 2. Use a screwdriver or
dime. · Turn screw clockwise to lift that side of the rail. · Turn screw
counter clockwise to lower that side of the rail. · Half a revolution is 1/4″
adjustment (maximum adjustment is 1/2″).
Installing Hold Down Brackets (Outside Mount Only)
ATTACH THE (optional) HOLD DOWN BRACKETS: 1. Lower the shade and place the
hold down pins into the bottom rail end caps. 2. Mark the hold down bracket
locations on the mounting surface. 3. With the brackets level, attach them
using two screws.

Cordlock Operation
BOTTOM UP ONLY · To lower or release shade, pull the cord inward toward the
center of the shade. · To raise or lock the shade, pull the cord straight down
and outward toward the edge of the shade.
TOP DOWN – BOTTOM UP On a standard top down – bottom up, the right hand cord
operates the middle rail, while the left hand cord operates the bottom rail.
· To lower or release either the middle rail or bottom rail of the shade, pull
the cord inward toward the center of the shade · To raise or lock either the
middle rail or bottom rail of the shade, pull the cord straight down and
outward toward the edge of the shade. Note: Before raising the middle rail all
the way to the head rail, you should raise the bottom rail a couple of inches.
This will prevent pinching the equalizer between the rails.
Cord Cleats
Be aware that it is possible for children to strangle in window covering
cords. To reduce the occurrence of an accident, all cords must be kept out of
reach of children, including infants. Cord cleats are an effective way to
implement this essential precaution.
· Mount the cord cleat at a safe height, taking into account furniture or
other objects upon which a child may climb. · Then, after each use of the
shade, simply wrap the excess cord around the cleat. It’s fast, easy and safe.
To protect your children, we are pleased to provide cord cleats free of charge
upon request.
CARE AND CLEANING
Honeycomb shades are made of an anti-static, dust resistant fabric which
repels dirt and dust. For most of these fabrics, the following options are
available if your shade needs cleaning. DUSTING: Regular light dusting with a
feather duster is all the cleaning that is needed in most circumstances.
VACUUMING: Use a hand-held vacuum with low suction for more thorough dust
removal. SPOT CLEANING: Use the following steps for spot cleaning: (1) Prepare
a solution of warm water and mild dishwashing detergent. (2) Dampen a clean
cloth in the solution and ring it out. (3) Dab the spot with the dampened
cloth until it is gone. DO NOT RUB THE FABRIC. (4) Allow the shade to dry in
the completely lowered position. CAUTION: Avoid creasing Blackout fabrics
during cleaning. DEEP CLEANING: Use the following steps for deep cleaning: (1)
Immerse shade in basin or bathtub filled with warm water and mild detergent.
(2) Rinse with clean water. (3) Fully raise shade and tilt to eliminate excess
water, (4) Reinstall damp shade, lower it, and let it dry completely. CAUTION:
Do not immerse Blackout fabrics. Do not immerse Cordless Lift & Lock
bottomrail in water. ULTRASONIC CLEANING: Standard shades, except those made
with Blackout or Blackout Lining can be ultrasonically cleaned by a
professional.
· Specify that a mild detergent be used. · Never immerse the headrail in the
solution. · Dry the shade completely in the lowered position. CAUTION: Do not
ultrasonically clean Blackout fabrics. Do not immerse headrail in water.

Operating the Shade
CONTINUOUS CORD LOOP SHADES
TO RAISE AND LOWER THE SHADE: 1. Pull down on the cord loop to raise and
lower. 2. One side of the loop will raise the shade and one side will lower
it. 3. If the same cord is continuously pulled after lowering, the shade will
begin to rise.
NOTE: Don’t raise shade any higher than it was intended to go. If shade
doesn’t raise evenly, in most cases lowering it completely will allow cords to
re-align on the spool. CAUTION: The shade will not operate properly unless the
cord tensioner is secured. A cord tensioner installation kit has been included
with your shade.
CORDLESS LIFT SHADES
TO RAISE AND LOWER THE SHADE: 1. Hold the handle in the center portion of the
bottomrail to ensure level movement. 2. Shades over 42″ in width will have 2
handles evenly positioned within hands reach along the center portion of the
bottomrail to ensure level movement. 3. Lower the shade by gently pulling
downward to the desired position. 4. Raise the shade by gently pushing upward
to the desired position
Adjusting the Shade
· Raise and lower the shade several times. · If the length is incorrect or the
bottom rail is not level, use the following steps to correct.
BOTTOMRAIL SHADE ADJUSTMENT 1. Lift bottomrail on the side to be adjusted.
This will take the weight off the cord. 2. Use a screwdriver or dime. · Turn
screw clockwise to lift that side of the shade. · Turn screw counter clockwise
to lower that side of the shade. · Half a revolution is 1/4″ adjustment
(maximum adjustment is 1/2″).
INTERMEDIATE RAIL SHADE ADJUSTMENT 1. Lift intermediate rail on side to be
adjusted. This will take the weight off the cord. 2. Use a screwdriver or
dime. · Turn screw clockwise to lift that side of the rail. · Turn screw
counter clockwise to lower that side of the rail. · Half a revolution is 1/4″
adjustment (maximum adjustment is 1/2″).

TROUBLESHOOTING
THE SHADE WILL NOT SNAP INTO THE INSTALLATION BRACKETS. · Check that the
installation brackets are aligned and level.
THE SHADE IS HARD TO RAISE OR LOWER, OR WILL NOT RAISE OR LOWER. · Shades
cannot be forced into tight inside mount window openings. If an inside mount,
check that the shade is installed correctly. Make sure there is clearance
between the ends of the shade and the window casement. · Check that the
installation brackets are level. Shim to level, if necessary. · If hold-down
brackets are used, make sure they have been released. · Make sure the fabric
is not caught.
THE SHADE RAISES OR LOWERS UNEVENLY OR THE BOTTOM RAIL IS UNEVEN. · Check that
the window is square by measuring the diagonals. · Check that the installation
brackets are level. Shim to level, if necessary. · Adjust the cords under the
bottom rail (see “Adjusting The Shade” on page 6).
THE CORD TENSIONER GRABS ONTO THE CORD UPON OPERATION. · Check that the cord
tensioner is mounted properly. Reinstall, if necessary. Refer to the Universal
Cord Tensioner Installation Instructions included with your cord loop shade.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING CORDLESS SHADE OPERATION. · Daily operation of
shade will ensure that it performs at its optimal level. · If the shade is in
the lowered position for an extended period of time, extra care needs to be
taken when raising the shade. The fabric will relax and may resist lifting.
This is a natural occurrence with all fabric shades. When lifting, you may
notice the billowing (falling out) toward you. This is temporary and can be
corrected by slowly raising the shade completely and then operating several
times. This allows the fabric to go back to its pleated state, and the shade
will operate as designed. · If shade has been in the fully raised position for
an extended period of time, it may have a tendency to “spring back” above the
desired length of the shade. This is temporary and can be corrected by
completely raising the shade and operating several times. · Operating the
shade with the handle(s) provided is recommended so that the shade is balanced
when raising and lowering. · Motorized Shades see Operating Instructions
Guide included with shade/remote control.
CARE AND CLEANING
Honeycomb shades are made of an anti-static, dust resistant fabric which
repels dirt and dust. For most of these fabrics, the following options are
available if your shade needs cleaning.
DUSTING: Regular light dusting with a feather duster is all the cleaning that
is needed in most circumstances.
VACUUMING: Use a hand-held vacuum with low suction for more thorough dust
removal.
SPOT CLEANING: Use the following steps for spot cleaning: (1) Prepare a
solution of warm water and mild dish-washing detergent. (2) Dampen a clean
cloth in the solution and ring it out. (3) Dab the spot with the dampened
cloth until it is gone. DO NOT RUB THE FABRIC. (4) Allow the shade to dry in
the completely lowered position. CAUTION: Avoid creasing Blackout fabrics
during cleaning.
DEEP CLEANING: Use the following steps for deep cleaning: (1) Immerse shade in
basin or bathtub filled with warm water and mild detergent. (2) Rinse with
clean water. (3) Fully raise shade and tilt to eliminate excess water, (4)
Reinstall damp shade, lower it, and let it dry completely. CAUTION: Do not
immerse Blackout fabrics. Do not immerse the headrail or any fabric-wrapped
rail.
ULTRASONIC CLEANING: Standard shades, except those made with Blackout Lining
can be ultrasonically cleaned by a professional. · Specify that a mild
detergent be used. · Never immerse the headrail or any fabric-wrapped rail in
the solution. · Dry the shade completely in the lowered position.
CAUTION: Do not ultrasonically clean Blackout fabrics. Do not immerse
headrail. 6

SHADE INSTALLATION
The receiver wire is a small gray wire that comes out of the side of the motor
closest to the end cap. Before mounting the headrail, make sure that the
receiver wire is out of the headrail. For optimal performance, position the
receiver wire so it extends into the room. Position the motor wire so that it
comes out the back side of the shade.
MOUNT THE HEADRAIL: With the front side of the shade facing you… Tilt the
headrail slightly backward to angle the
front inside lip to the brackets. (A) Push the headrail back and upward to
snap in it
into place (B).
Make sure that no fabric is pinched between the brackets and the headrail. Be
sure the motor wire and charging port do not interfere with the bracket.
REMOVING THE SHADE
To remove a shade, insert a screwdriver between the headrail and the bottom
back of the bracket (tab which extends out slightly from each bracket). Gently
pry the screwdriver to release the bracket from the headrail. Take care not to
damage the painted finish of the headrail. As you release the brackets,
support the headrail to keep it from falling.
OPERATION
The factory has set your shade to the channel that was specified at the time
of order. If no channel was specified, the shade was set to operate on channel
- If channel 0 was specified, the remote and shade will not be linked. A
remote needs to be linked to the shade to continue. This should be done prior
to installing the shade in the window.
