Step 6: Blind Installation
Attach the plastic valance clips to the front of the headrail, one at each
end. Space any remaining clips evenly. Hold the valance into the clips.
Align the headrail with the center support and box brackets. The head-
rail should have the tilt mechanism facing toward the room. Be careful
not to trap the top slat in the brackets and slide the headrail straight
back until it is snug in the brackets. If the headrail can slide from side to
side in the box brackets, you can use a flat head screwdriver to bend out
the tabs on the end of the until it is snug.
Lower the front gate of each box brack-
et and press until the locking tab clicks
into place.
(For Outside Mount Installations)
Screw brackets into wall as shown.
(For Inside Mount Installations)
Screw brackets in window frame as shown.
With the hold-down brackets attached to
the bottom rail, lower the blind to the hold
down bracket mounting surface and mark
the bracket locations. Attach the hold down
brackets at the bottom of the window or
door with the included screws as shown. To
attach the bottomrail, gently pull the brack-
ets out slightly, and insert the pins into the
holes on the bottomrail of the blinds.
To lower the blind,
pull the cord down and towards the center of the shade to unlock the cord. Then, slowly release the cord until the shade reaches the
desired location. Move the cord past the outer edge of the shade and let go to lock the cord.
To raise the blind,
pull the cord straight down until the shade reaches the desired location. Move the cord past the outer edge of the shade and let go to
lock the cord.
Outside Mount Valances:
For aluminum blinds
ordered as outside mount, the aluminum slats
used for the valance, will be made wider than
the headrail. Attach the slats to the plastic
valance clips, and then bend both the left and
right sides of the valance so that the aluminum
valance slats cover the box installation brackets.
