WARNING
For more safety information call 1-888-501-8364
in the U.S. or 1-866-662-0666 in Canada.
Young children can STRANGLE in cord loops and in the loop
above the cord stop. They can also wrap cords around their
necks and STRANGLE. In addition, inner cords can pull out
to form a loop, which can STRANGLE a young child.
Always keep cords out of children’s reach.
Move cribs, playpens and other furniture away from
■
cords. Children can climb furniture to get to cords.
Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist together and create a loop.
■
Cord Stop
This component acts as a stopper to prevent inner
■
cords from being pulled through the blind, which can
pose the risk of entanglement.
It is also designed to break apart under significant
■
pressure, which may lessen the risk of entanglement
in the top lift cords.
Reassembly of Cord Stop
Reinsert any loose cords into the top notches of the cord
■
stop. There is a notch on each side.
Line up the two halves of the cord stop and snap the
■
pieces back together.
Cord Cleats
Hunter Douglas offers cord cleats and we recommend their use.
Attach two cord cleats 6" to 12" apart at a height where they will be
■
out of the reach of children. Take into account that a child may stand on
furniture attempting to reach the cords.
Be sure the cleats are firmly secured.
■
Once the cleats are attached, wrap excess cord around them after each
■
use of the blind.
