7. Valance (Optional)
SKYVENETIAN blinds can be supplied with a wooden valance (pelmet). If valance is supplied it is fitted using
the self adhesive plastic spacer blocks which incorporate a ‘Dual Lock™’ tape.
•
Make sure the head rail and valance are clean and free from dust.
•
Peel away the cover tape from the adhesive on the side
of the spacer that does not have the ‘Dual Lock™’.
•
Stick these to the head rail, spacing them equally along
the length of the head rail.
•
Remove cover tape from the ’Dual Lock™’ face and press
the valance on to the exposed adhesive.
8. Tilting the Slats
•
Wand - rotate the wand clockwise or anti-clockwise until the desired position is obtained.
•
Mono Control - pull one side of the loop to tilt in one direction or the other.
•
Tilt Cords - pull one cord to tilt the slats in one direction and the other cord to reverse the action.
•

9. To Raise or Lower the Blind
•
Lift Cord - pull the lift cords towards the centre of the blind to release the cord lock. Raise or lower the blind
to the required level and move the cord towards the outside of the blind to lock the cords in position.
•
Mono Control - pull one side of the loop to tilt in one direction, once the slats have tilted, the blind will begin
to raise or lower depending on which side of the loop you pull.
•
Powered - continually press the up or down button.

Note: For blinds using wands the slats should not be tilted when the blind is in it’s stowed position.
10. Warranty
Head rail
Head rails are not salt water proof. Blinds should not be fitted in areas which will be exposed to salt.
Cabin conditions
Venetian blind slats are a long, thin, natural material which makes them particularly sensitive to environmental
changes. We select wood species that are the most stable available and suitable for yacht interiors. However
excessively low or high humidity or rapid changes in humidity and temperature could cause warping, or in ex-
treme cases, splitting.
Colour & wood grain
Wood is a natural material and, as such, the colour and grain will vary. For painted slats this is not an issue but,
for stained slats, the grain and colour variations will be apparent. The manufacturer will ensure that all slats in a
blind, and all blinds in an order are a good match but we cannot guarantee that blinds from different orders or
batches will match.
Timber sourcing
Due to world environmental issues, wood slat supply is a fast changing environment. Oceanair reserves the right
to change its specification of finish and base woods to ensure supply. Where relevant materials used have CITES
Certification to confirm material is legally logged and imported.
