OPERATION
Problem
The shade raises or lowers unevenly or the bottom rail is uneven.
Solution
Check that the window is square by measuring the diagonals.
Check that the installation brackets are level. Shim to level, if necessary.
Adjust the cords under the bottom rail (see "Adjusting the Shade" on page 4).
Problem
The cord tensioner grabs onto the cord upon operation.
Solution
Check that the cord tensioner is mounted properly. Reinstall, if necessary. Refer to the Universal Cord Tensioner
Installation Instructions included with your cord loop shade.
Problem
Important information regarding cordless shade operation.
Solution
Daily operation of shade will ensure that it performs at its optimal level.
If the shade is in the lowered position for an extended period of time, extra care needs to be taken when raising the
shade. The fabric will relax and may resist lifting. This is a natural occurrence with all fabric shades. When lifting, you
may notice the billowing (falling out) toward you. This is temporary and can be corrected by slowly raising the shade
completely and then operating several times. This allows the fabric to go back to its pleated state, and the shade will
operate as designed.
If shade has been in the fully raised position for an extended period of time, it may have a tendency to “spring back”
above the desired length of the shade. This is temporary and can be corrected by completely raising the shade and
operating several times.
Operating the shade with the handle(s) provided is recommended so that the shade is balanced when raising and
lowering.
Removing the Shade, If Necessary
■
Lower the shade approximately 4".
■
While holding the headrail, push back on the bottom tab of the installation
bracket with a flat head screwdriver to release the bottom of the headrail.
■
Then roll the back of the headrail down and out from the bracket.
Cleaning Procedures
Kirsch
®
Basics Cellular Shades are made of anti-static, dust-resistant fabric which repels dirt and dust. For most cellular fabrics, the
following cleaning options are available.
Dusting
■
Regular light dusting with a feather duster is all the cleaning that is needed in most circumstances.
Vacuuming
■
Use a hand-held vacuum with low suction for more thorough dust removal.
Spot-Cleaning
Use the following steps for spot cleaning:
■
Prepare a solution of warm water and mild dishwashing detergent.
■
Dampen a clean cloth in the solution and wring it out.
■
Dab the spot with the dampened cloth until it is removed.
Do not
rub the fabric.
■
Allow the shade to dry in the completely lowered (or closed) position.
CAUTION:
Avoid creasing Opaque fabrics during cleaning.
