MAINTENANCE: Your exterior Shade has been made of the finest materials
and, when properly cared for, will provide years of shade and privacy. To clean
your Shade, simply rinse with water, scrub with mild soap or any nonabrasive
cleaner, rinse and allow to dry. Call us for missing parts or mechanical problems.
Do not store Shade wet. In moist areas, roll Shade down frequently to air dry.
CAUTION: Use of solvents or abrasive cleaners may damage the fabric and will
void your warranty. Do not use bleach or chlorine.
Retract your exterior shade when not in use, or before strong storms, to prevent damage.
CHANGE TO A TOP CEILING MOUNT
If you want your Shade to hang from the top (for
example, the ceiling), you will need to make a simple
change to your Crank unit and Idle end unit before
you install your Shade.
A. Remove the two screws from both brackets (Fig. 5).
B. Turn the Crank unit 90° so the crank eyelet hangs
straight down. Now turn the Idle end unit so the
opening is facing away from the window
(Fig. 6), then put the screws back in.

IMPORTANT: With the shade in place
adjust the brackets so they provide a snug
fit. Now go back and tighten the bracket
screws completely. The screws included
in your hardware kit are for use with
wood only. See your retailer for mounting
recommendations when attaching your
Shade to any other material.
MEASUREMENT GUIDE
NOTE: Do not tighten screws completely yet.
ATTACHING THE SHADE
A. Insert the Crank plug into the Crank unit (Fig. 3).
Then insert the Idle end plug into the Idle end unit and
snap the Idle end plug securely into place (Fig. 4).
