CHILD SAFETY
17
Warning
Young children can STRANGLE in cord loops. They can also wrap cords around their
necks and STRANGLE.
■
Always keep cords out of the reach of children.
■
Move cribs, playpens and other furniture away from cords. Children can climb
furniture to get to cords.
■
Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist together and create
a loop.
Cord Loop Blinds
■
Attach the cord tensioner on the cord loop to the wall or window casement. See
“Attach the Vertical Cord Tensioner” on page 11. This can prevent children
from pulling cord loops around their necks.
■
Hunter Douglas provides a cord tensioner installation kit with instructions for
attaching the cord tensioner. For the blind to operate properly, the cord tensioner
must be correctly mounted and secured.
■
Fasteners provided in the
Vertical Cord Tensioner Kit
may not be appropriate
for all mounting surfaces. Use appropriate anchors for the mounting surface
conditions.
■
Only Hunter Douglas supplied cord tensioners and hardware should be used.
