Troubleshooting
Problem
The installation brackets do not allow enough clearance for the shade to clear moldings or door handle(s).
Solution
With outside mounts, use extension brackets or spacer blocks to allow adequate clearance for your shade. See
“Mount the Installation Brackets” on page 3.
With inside mounts, reposition the installation brackets to add clearance. See “Mount the Installation Brackets” on
page 12.
Problem
The shade binds or moves with difficulty toward the end of the headrail.
Solution
Check that the headrail and installation brackets are level and aligned. Shim the installation brackets to level the
headrail.
Check that the tension cords are routed correctly. See “Position the Cords and Set Cord Tension” on page 9 (OB
— outside mount) or page 16 (IB — inside mount).
If the shade does not slide with ease, you may need to adjust the cord tension. Slide the cord tensioners toward the
end plate to slightly decrease the tension. See cord tensioning procedures beginning on page 11 (OB) or page
18 (IB).
Problem
The shade does not stay in position after operating the moving rail.
Solution
If the shade does not stay in position, you may need to adjust the cord tension. Slide the cord tensioner away from
the end plate to slightly increase the tension. See cord tensioning procedures beginning on page 11 (OB) or page
18 (IB).
Problem
The fabric billows out when moving the shade to the stacked (fully open) position.
Solution
Increase the cord tension. Slide the cord tensioner away from the end plate to slightly increase the tension. See cord
tensioning procedures beginning on page 11 (OB) or page 18 (IB).
Problem
The cord tensioner does not lock into place.
Solution
If using a valance, place a valance bracket up against the cord tensioner to act as a stop, preventing the tensioner
from sliding.
Determine the correct location for the cord tensioner. Hold it in place and insert a small screw into the channel next
to the cord tensioner.
