Step 4: Attach the Side Channels
•
Position each side channel against the side of the window frame, aligning the center of the
channel with the bottom rail of the shade.
•
Attach each side channel to the window frame. (For convenience, a
¹⁄₄
″ magnetic hex driver
bit with an extended shaft is recommended.) If you are installing to a metal or wood surface,
use the self-tapping screws provided to drill through the side channel and into the window
frame. For other surfaces, pre-drill a hole in the channel to accommodate the fasteners you
are using (special fasteners not included).
Place a screw about 1″ from each end plus additional screws approximately every 24″.
•
Insert the bottom rail of the shade into the side channels.
When you have completed the installation, test the shade to make sure it operates correctly.
Then have the motor wiring completed by a qualified electrician.
Caring for Your Skystar Shade
Your
Skystar
™
shade will provide you with years of beauty and pleasure with minimal care and
cleaning. To care for your shade:
•
Vacuum using a brush or dust head attachment.
•
Dust lightly using a soft, clean cloth.
•
Never immerse your shade in water or liquids of any kind.
•
If necessary, wipe the solar fabric with a damp cloth. Allow the shade to dry completely
before opening.
•
On some fabrics, a mild detergent solution can be used, if needed. Test on a small
inconspicuous area first. Be sure to rinse thoroughly and allow the shade to dry fully before
opening.
