Important: Do Not Cut the Antenna Your shade has an antenna that allows the Remote Control to communicate with the shade motor. Please do not cut the antenna (see Fig A). Fig A Step 2: Install Valance Brackets Wall Installation Your shade can be hung as either a wall or ceiling installation. See Figures B and C (to the right) to determine your type of installation. Your shade includes two (2) or three (3) Valance Brackets (depending on the size of your shade), you must install at least two (2) of them.
Step 3: Install the Shade Your shade is shipped with a protective film to prevent scratching during shipping. Please remove this film prior to installation. WALL INSTALLATION For wall installations, first hook the back of the Valance on the top of the Valance Brackets (Fig I), then rotate the shade down and click into place (Fig J). Fig I Note: you may need to push the plastic tabs on the Valance Brackets to help the shade click into place.
Step 6: Set your top and bottom limits When rolling your shade up or down, you have the option of stopping the fabric at any position by pushing the stop button on your Remote Control. Your shade is pre-programmed with a “Fabric Top Limit” and a “Fabric Bottom Limit”. These are the points where the fabric will stop rolling without you pushing the “stop” button. The default “Fabric Top Limit” is approximately 4’’ below the valance. The default “Fabric Bottom Limit” is approximately 96’’ below the Valance.
To install, place the Holder Bracket against the installation surface with the narrow side against the wall/beam and install it using the two Small Screws (Fig P). Next, slide the Holder onto the Holder Bracket (Fig Q). Now slide the Remote Control into the holder bracket (Fig R) Step 8: Install Cable Tie Down System (optional step) Your shade includes a Cable Tie Down System to keep your shade secured during mild wind conditions.
Step 8: (continued) Next, thread the Cable through the Bottom Tube Plug and make a vertical mark where the Cable intersects the horizontal mark (see Fig V). Note: you may need to roll the Fabric up to complete this part of the process. Align the top of the Cable Bracket with the horizontal line and centered on the vertical line you created using the Cables (see Fig W) and install using the provided 1 inch Screws (two screws per Cable Bracket).
You can now control each shade individually by selecting their channel on your primary remote or you can control all shades at the same time on the primary remote by lighting all five (5) channels. Press the “channel increase” or “channel decrease” buttons until all five (5) channels are illuminated.
