C.
Press the opposite end of the rail over the second mounting stud.
Note: Bottom-up cellular shades may appear to be too short for the unit. The shade will lengthen
after hanging in the down position for a few hours. If the shade does not hang straight, open
and close it completely two to three times.
D.
For shades 47" or wider:
Attach the shade support clip to
the top of the hinged glass panel near the center of the
hinged glass panel. However, if there is a grille that will be
attached at the center point, move the support to the left
or right of center. Next, lift up on the shade head rail, to
engage the clip.
Note: Follow the steps in Instruction 1 to open the hinged glass
panel. Follow the steps in Instruction 2 to remove the grilles
(if applicable).
REMOVAL
A.
Slip the metal support clips off
the hinged glass panel
frame.
B.
Release the blind from the mounting stud
by pulling the
head rail.
C.
Remove the blind head rail
from the drive gear and second
mounting stud by sliding it away from the operator side of
the hinged glass panel.
INSTALLATION
Note: Remove the plastic bands and foam pads from the blind (if applicable), do
not
cut cords or
damage the slats. With one hand, compress the blind while removing the banding and foam
pads, then remove the cord from the cardboard spool. Grasp the bottom rail, and gently pull
down until the bottom rail almost touches the bottom of the hinged glass panel.
A.
Install the bottom rail retainers.
(If the bottom rail retainers are already in place, proceed to
Step B.) Pull the tape from the “LH” retainer and place it approximately 1/4" from the left end of
the hinged glass panel bottom rail as shown. Repeat this process for the “RH” retainer, placing it
at the right end of the hinged glass panel bottom rail.
B.
Check the location of the shade operator handle.
Ensure that it is located at least 4" above or
below one of the hinged glass panel latches. This allows for sufficient travel of the operator
handle to tilt the blind completely.
