power adapter to charge shade.

. For easier access to the charging port, a
removable magnetic charging adapter has
been installed during production. Attach the
magnetic charging adapter to the micro-
USB charging cable and power adapter
before connecting to headrail to charge.

· Indicator light battery status:

- Low (red flash)

- Charging (green flash)

LEVEL THE BOTTOM RAIL (IF NECESSARY)

· Lift the bottom rail to locate the pockets on the underside
of the rail.

. Gently pull down on the bottom rail to fully insert the 7/64"
Allen wrench key into the pocket. The key is fully inserted
when the ring on the key abuts to the pocket.

- Lift up the bottom rail slightly before turning the Allen
wrench key. Turn the key clockwise to raise that side of
the bottom rail, or counter-clockwise to lower it.

- One quarter turn of the key equals approximately 1/4".

IMPORTANT: The Allen wrench key must be fully
inserted to avoid stripping the mechanism. Do not
pull down on the bottom rail while turning the key.

Raise Lower Allen Wrench Key

. If more than two pockets exist, adjust the outer pockets first. Then adjust inner
pockets as necessary, to maintain equal tension across the bottom rail. As pocket
adjustments are made, it is recommended that the shade be raised and lowered to
check that it is level.

REMOVING THE SHADE (IF NECESSARY)

· Lower the shade approximately 4".

· While holding the headrail, push
back on the bottom tab of the
installation bracket to release
the bottom edge of the headrail.

· After releasing the bottom edge,
roll the back of the headrail
down and out from the bracket.

CLEANING PROCEDURES

All LEVOLOR Cellular Shades are made of 100% polyester and with multiple
cleaning options, these easy to care for shades will maintain their beautiful
appearance for years to come.

NOTICE: Avoid contact with window cleaning products. Improper cleaning may
damage the shade and void warranty.

DUSTING

Use a feather duster for regular cleaning.

FORCED AIR

Blow away dirt and debris using clean compressed air.

PROFESSIONAL INJECTION/EXTRACTION CLEANING

Call local on-site blind/shade cleaner that injects a cleaning solution
into the fabric and extracts the dirty solution at the same time. The
service is typically performed at home so you do not need to remove
your window treatments.

VACUUMING

Use a low suction vacuum with a brush-type cleaner attachment;
stroke lightly over the shade to clean.

SPOT-CLEANING/STAIN REMOVAL AT HOME

Use warm water and a mild soap, like Woolite® or Scotchgard®, if
needed. Do not immerse shade in water.

A Note About Fabrics

As with all textiles, Cellular fabrics are subject to some variations. Slight wrinkling,
puckering, or bowing is inherent to this textile product and should be considered
normal, acceptable quality. These characteristics are not usually visible from the
front or rear but may be visible from a side angle.

Precautions should be taken to reduce exposure to harsh environmental elements,
such as salt air. Continuous exposure through open windows and doors will accelerate
the fabric deterioration.

NOTE: Improper cleaning may void warranty.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If your shade is not operating correctly:

· First review the guide that came with your control device.

. Refer to the following troubleshooting procedures for specific solutions for your shade.

If questions remain, please contact LEVOLOR Customer Service at 1-800-LEVOLOR or
1-800-538-6567

Problem	The shade will not fit into the installation brackets.
Solution	Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Adjust and/ or shim to level, if necessary. Be sure the heads of the mounting screws are flush against the installation bracket. Make sure that the shade fabric is not caught between the installation bracket and the headrail. Check that the headrail is completely inserted into the installation brackets.
Problem	The shade raises or lowers unevenly or the bottom rail is uneven when fully raised.
Solution	Lower the shade completely to allow it to "self-correct" skewing. Check that the headrail and installation brackets are level and aligned. Shim the installation brackets to level the headrail, if necessary. Adjust the bottom rail. See "Level the Bottom Rail (If Necessary)" on page 17.
