Care and Cleaning
• Dust with a soft clean cloth or chemically treated dust cloth. Tilt
the slats up and dust. Then tilt the slats down (but not all the way
closed) and dust the other side of the slats.
• Vacuum using the brush dust head attachment and tilt the slats
up and down as described for dusting.
• Wash slats using a damp cloth and mild detergent solution. Use
warm or cold water, not hot water. Tilt the slats up and down as
described for dusting.
• Bottom rail and slats may also be immersed in a bathtub for a
more thorough cleaning. Do not immerse the headrail. Place the
blind in a solution of mild, soapy water. Rinse clean and either
wipe dry or allow to air dry completely.
