Shades
For smooth operation, keep the cord close to the fabric when lowering and raising the shade.
To Lower the Shade
■
Pull the cord toward the center of the shade at about a 45°
angle. A locking mechanism at the top of the cord releases
with a “click.” The shade lowers as you allow the cord to
return to the vertical position.
■
To stop the shade while lowering, move the cord back
toward the vertical position and give a slight downward
pull, until the locking mechanism engages.
■
If the shade hits an obstruction as it is lowered, it will stop. When this happens, the cords
in each cord rout may become misaligned. This may cause the shade to be angled or tilted
when fully raised. If this occurs, do the following:
➤
Raise the shade slightly.
➤
Lower the shade completely to the sill. In some cases, pull gently on the bottom rail to
get it to drop completely.
Important:
If the bottom of the shade is tilted when fully raised, do not pull harder on
the cord. It does not correct the tilt and may make it worse.
To Raise the Shade
■
Pull the cord straight down.
■
With each stroke the shade partially raises.
■
Allow the cord to retract after each downward stroke.
■
Use multiple strokes until the shade reaches the desired
position.
