Breakaway Cord Condenser
A breakaway cord condenser comes pre-fitted
to the lift cords, so when a horizontal force is
applied to the cords entering the condenser, it
will safely break apart thereby eliminating any
hazardous loops.
If the cord condenser becomes separated:
Firstly, untwist and untangle the cords.
If the blind features 2 cords: press
the cord condenser together until it
is fully closed.
If the blind features 3 cords: Place the
loose cord into the opening in one half
of the cord condenser and press the cord
condenser together until it is fully closed.
If the blind features 4 cords: Place one of
the loose cords into the opening of one
half of the condenser, next place the
remaining loose cord into the opening
in the other half, then press the cord
condenser together until it is fully closed.
Cord Safety Cleat
The safety cleat needs to be installed as close as possible to the headrail and in all cases not less than 1500mm from the floor. The
cords must be fully wrapped around the safety cleat(s) when the blind is not in use. Refer to the table below to determine the
distance required between the cleats to fully accumulate the cords when the blind is completely raised up.

Place the safety cleat in the
desired position on the wall
and mark the positions of
the holes with a pencil.
With the hole positions marked,
drill as required and use the
screws provided to attach the
safety cleat to the wall.
Wrap the cords around the
cord cleats in a figure of 8.
When the cords are fully
accumulated, ensure they
are secure so that when any
cord is pulled, no excess
cord is released.
