CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
DUSTING: Like any piece of furniture, dust your blinds regularly. Use an ordinary
soft, clean cloth, chemically treated dust cloth, dusting mitt or cylindrical dust
brushes especially designed for blinds. Lower the blind to its full length, tilt the
slats almost fully closed and dust. Then dust the reverse side of the slats in the
same manner. In order to reach the dust where the slats overlap, it is best not to
fully close the blind in either position.
VACUUMING: To use your vacuum for cleaning your blind, use the brush
attachment provide with your vacuum. Use the same procedure as mentioned
above.
DAMP CLEANING: To wipe your blinds, use a soft cloth or sponge. Use warm or
cold water - NOT hot water. Place toweling on the floor or sill and wipe the blind
in sections.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Ultrasonic cleaning is NOT recommended for wood blinds.
SAFETY FEATURES
CORD STOP: This component breaks apart with minimal
pressure should a child or pet become entangled on the top lift
cords. It also acts as a stopper to prevent inner cords from
being pulled through the blind, which can also create potential
entanglement.
REASSEMBLY OF CORD STOP: Reinsert any loose cords into the
top notches of the cord stop. There is a notch on each side.
Line up the right and left sides of the cord stop and snap the
pieces back together.
VALANCE SAFETY STRAPS: The valance safety
straps should always be attached securely to the
backside valance route for added safety. It acts
to prevent the valance from falling completely off
the headrail in the event of a severe impact.
SECURING VALANCE SAFETY STRAPS: To attach
the safety straps, pivot the valance up by gently
lifting the bottom of the valance up and out. Twist
each safety clip at the end of each strap into the
backside valance route.
