 Side Track Rails
Select the Side Track Rail that will be installed on the control side of the shade. The notch on the Track must be on the top.
Slide the T of the Side Track Rail into the notch on the end of the shade. Snap the Side Track Rail in
place. Repeat for the opposite side.
Top Down Bottom Up
Snap the Side Track Rails into the Attachment Tracks. The notches on the Tracks must be on the top.
Unwind the cord from the shade. Release the cordlock that lowers the bottom rail (Standard is the left cord). Release the opposite cordlock to lower the top.
Insert the front clip of the installation bracket into
the front groove of the rail. Push the rail back and up until the back clips of the bracket are inserted in the back groove of the rail. Tip the fabric and rails, so that you can position the groove of the fabric over the
side track rail. Level the fabric and rails.  |

| | 4. OPERATION
Standard Shades
To lower or release shade, pull the cord inward toward the center of the shade. To raise or lock the shade, pull the cord straight down and
outward toward the edge of the shade.
Top-Down Bottom Up
One cord will raise or lower the bottom rail, the other cord will raise or lower the top. Pull the cord inward toward the center of the shade to lower or release shade. Pull the cord straight down and outward toward the edge of the shade to raise or lock the shade.
Continuous Loop Shades
Operate the shade by pulling down on one side of the cord — one side of the cord raises the shade, the
other side lowers the shade. Do not lift the bottom rail with your hands. Also, be careful not to place objects on the window sill that will interfere with operating the shade or cause it to hang unevenly.If the shade does become crooked, simply lower it as far as it will go and then raise it again. This will ensure that all the lift lines inside the shade are pulling up evenly.

5. EZEQ - Equalization
Cellular shades use a system that allows easy leveling of the bottom rail.
| 
| 
| Stand in the center of the shade and
grasp the bottom rail with both hands.
Give the bottom rail a slight tug. This
will fully engage the cord-lock.
| Position the rail as desired, by pulling
down on the side that is too high. |
|
| | | PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
Be aware that it is possible for
children to strangle in window covering cords. To reduce the occurrence of accident, all cords must be kept out of the reach of children, including infants. Velcro dots are supplied with each shade. Fix one side of the dot to the cord equalizer and the other side of the dot to the window sill. Cord cleats are also an effective way to implement this essential precaution. Mount the cord cleat at a safe height, taking into account furniture or other objects upon which a child may
climb. Then, after each use of the shade, simply secure the cord safely using the velcro attachment. It's fast, easy and safe.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Cause: Brackets and Side Track may not be properly aligned.
Repair: Refer to step 2 Bracket Installation for proper alignment. Adjust
brackets as necessary.
Problem: Shade will not open and close properly.
Cause: Window may not be square. The widest width of the window cannot
exceed the narrowest width of the window by more than 3/8". The shade

| CLEANING AND CARE
The shade fabric is easy to care for. If you feel it is necessary you can feather dust or use vacuum cleaner brush. Most stains can be blotted with a damp sponge and mild detergent. For problem stains,
the shade can be removed from the Installation brackets and soaked in warm water. When damp, raise shade tightly to re-crisp pleats. Before using anything stronger than mild detergent and lukewarm water, test an unobtrusive corner of the shade. If you have any questions, call us for advice.
Due to superior insulation properties of this window treatment, it is sometimes possible for condensation to build up between the window and the shade. This happens most frequently when
the window is old or not sealed properly. If condensation does occur, simply let your window breathe by occasionally raising the shade. |
