Custom Cordless Roman Shade
owner's handbook
Cords and bead chains can loop around a child’s neck and strangle.
• Always keep cords and bead chains out of children’s reach.
• Move furniture away from cords and bead chains. Children can climb furniture to get to cords.
• Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist together and create a loop.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ROMAN SHADE
This product is designed to make your shade safer for children and pets. However, this shade is
substantially different than the traditional shades that you might be accustomed to.
This shade has a double cording system on the back of the shade to help minimize the possibility of a
child or pet becoming entangled in the cords.
See the operating instructions toward the back of this handbook for additional information about the
function of your shade.

Step 3.
Attach Pleat Stiffeners
If the Pleat Stiffeners are not pre-attached, snap them onto the bottom hem as
illustrated, by pressing down firmly on each end of each stiffener. Do not press
down in the center of the stiffener as it can break. The bottom pleat must have
rigidity in order for the shade to function properly.
Step 4.
Bracket Location and Installation
Your shade may be installed either inside the window frame or outside the window
frame.
A mounting bracket should be positioned about 1” to 6” from each end of the head
rail. For wider shades that require 3 or more brackets, these should be spaced evenly
between the two outermost brackets. Always position the brackets such that there is
no interference with the cords and mechanisms inside the head rail. The procedure
outlined below will assure proper bracket placement.
Note that the shape of head rails and mounting brackets varies by style of shade.
For style ‘A’ [see illustration]: To attach the brackets the locking arm should be facing out. Then position the bracket so that it engages the inner
front and outer back of the head rail, and then push the locking arm inward to lock it in place.
