Operation
&
Care
For
protection
of
furniture
and
carpeting,
slats
should
be
turned
up
when
closed.
Operation
When
raising
and
lowering
the
blind,
keep
the
slats
tilted
open.
To
operate
the
locking
mechanism,
move
the
cord
toward
the
center
of
the
blind.
This
will
unlock
the
blind,
enabling
you
to
raise
and
lower
the
blind.
To
lock
the
blind
into
the
position
desired,
return
the
cord
to
the
vertical
position.
Care
and
Cleaning
Basswood
blind
slats
are
affected
by
moisture.
High
humidity
environments
can
cause
slat
warpage
as
can
direct
contact
with
water.
Projecting
Surfaces
Treat
the
blind
as
you
would
any
fine
piece
of
furniture
that
has
a
painted
surface.
A
soft
dusting
cloth
should
be
used.
If
you
choose
to
use
an
anti
‐
static
dusting
solution,
spray
the
cloth
first
rather
than
spraying
directly
on
the
blind.

know
that

could
accidently
strangle
in
window
covering
cords.

and
back
of
the
window
covering
out
of
the
reach
of
