Caslaninstall – Blinds Chalet Lumina Blackout Roman Shades User Manual

Thank you for your purchase of Roman Shades. With proper installation
and care, your new Shadings will provide many years of beauty and
performance. To install them you will need the following tools:
• Pencil
• Screwdriver
• Power Drill
You will also need a supply of fasteners to install the installation brack-
ets. Sheet metal screws work well for both wood and aluminum
mounting surfaces. If you are installing into a hollow wall, you will need
to use wall anchors.
Installation Instructions
Note: For a flush inside mount, a 2” window depth is required.
1. Unroll your shade and cord controls.
2. Place the shade in the bracket by putting the bolt through the slot in
the top of the shade. (See figure A) and place shade at desired position
in the window opening.
3. Mark the position of the brackets at the window with a pencil
ensuring all brackets are aligned.
4. Remove the brackets from your shade. Place the brackets at the
pencil marks and screw into place (pre-drilling small holes for screws
will make installation easier).
5. Attach shade up into the brackets so that the bolt is visible under the
headrail (see figure B). Place wing nut on the bolt and tighten securely.
Operation
To unlock shade:
Pull cord sharply to the center of the shade and release cord (see diagram).
To lock shade into position:
Pull cord down and toward the right of the shade (see diagram).
To raise or lower shade:
Keep the cord close to the shade; for best results, do not pull the cord away
from the shade more than a 15 degree angle. To disengage the locking
mechanism, move the cord toward the center of the shade approximately
30 degrees from the vertical position. Raise or lower shade while holding
the cord at this angle. To engage the locking mechanism, return the cord to
the vertical position.
Often during shipping , lift cords become looped around the cord guides
located on the back of the shade. This will cause your shade to hang
uneven. Simply unwrap the cord from around the clip so that the cord runs
straight through the clip.
Care and Maintenance
Roman shades are made of the highest quality material for extended wear.
If your shade is not damaged or exposed to a great deal of direct sunlight,
you can expect years of enjoyment with minimal care. Raising and lowering
shades periodically helps reduce most natural dust accumulation. If
additional cleaning is desired, shades can be lightly brushed or carefully
cleaned with a soft vacuum brush attachment.
