PREPARATION

Before beginning the installation of the product, make sure all parts are present. Compare parts with the package contents list and hardware contents list.

Tools Required for Assembly (not included): Pencil, drill, 1/16 in. bit, safety goggles, Phillips screwdriver, tape measure, level. Helpful  Tools (not included): Step stool.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Mark the center of the window opening and the center of the blind (A) with a pencil (not included).
2. Hold the top rail of blind (A) with one hand while pulling the bottom rail of the blind (A) with the other hand until the slats are pulled apart.
3. Slide mounting brackets (AA) on each end of the blind (A) headrail. Position blind (A) in the window, on either the inside or outside, and align center marks. Mark the position of mounting brackets (AA) with a pencil.
4. Remove mounting brackets (AA) from blind (A), align with pencil marks, and attach to the window frame or wall using 2 large screws (EE).
   Note: Use 1/16 in. drill bit (not included) to pre-drill pilot holes as needed.
5. If the blind width is 29 inches or larger, slide center bracket(s) (DD) onto the headrail from the back of blind (A), positioning it on either side of the middle vertical ladder strings. Temporarily hang blind (A) by sliding the headrail into attached mounting brackets (AA). Mark the location of the center bracket(s) (DD) with a pencil. Remove blind (A).
6. Align center bracket(s) (DD) with pencil marks and attach using 2 large screws (EE). Note:  Use 1/16 in. drill bit (not included) to pre-drill pilot holes as needed.
7. Install wand (C) by GRIPPING AND PULLING the wand tilter, located on the left hand side of blind (A) headrail, and hook wand (C) into the wand tilter.
8. Insert end caps (GG) into each end of the bottom rail.
9. Attach valance clips (FF) to blind (A) headrail (optional). Hang blind (A) and snap the locking tabs of the mounting brackets (AA).
10. OPTIONAL: Slide valance (B) onto valance clips (FF) as needed to center valance (B).
11. OPTIONAL: Attach valance end caps (HH) by inserting valance end caps (HH) into ends of valance (B).
12. OPTIONAL: To install hold-down brackets (BB), lower blind (A) to desired position. Screw hold-down brackets (BB) into the wall or window sill using medium screws (CC) and attach blind (A) to the hole in the cap on the bottom rail.

ADJUST THE LENGTH OF BLIND

1.  Lower blind (A) to maximum length. Cut the desired number of the bottommost slats, leaving the bottom rail as is. Blind (A) is able to shorten MAX 5 slats (up to 10 inches) with no operation concerns.
2. Remove the cut slats.
3. Cut the excess horizontal ladder strings. CAUTION: Do not cut the vertical ladder strings, as this will void the warranty.
4. Remove the plugs from the bottom rail with a flathead screwdriver (not included).
5.  Slide the bottom rail up to 1 inch below the newest bottom slat.
6. Twist the cords back into the bottom rail and replace the plugs.

SHORTEN THE WIDTH OF BLIND

This item is manufactured to allow up to 2 inches on each end of the blind (A) to be trimmed for a total of up to 4 inches (Note: 23-in. width blinds allow up to 1 inch on each end of the blind (A) for a total of up to 2 inches).

1. Remove blind (A) from the box. Determine the width of the installation site by measuring the width at the top, middle, and bottom of the opening. Using the smallest of 3 measurements, subtract 1/2 inch to allow for mounting brackets (AA); this is the width needed to measure on the blind (A).
   IMPORTANT: Double-check measurements prior to cutting. Blinds (A) cut in error do not qualify for warranty return.
2. Measure the actual width of the blind (A) and subtract width determined in step 1. This is the total trimming amount from blind (A). If total trimming amount is 1/2 inch or less, only trim one end of blind (A). If total trimming amount is greater than 1/2 inch, divide number by 2 and trim amount from each end of blind (A). Pencil a mark on end(s) of the blind (A) at the determined width(s).
   Example:
   35 ½ inches
   -33 inches
   =2 ½ inches
   ÷ 2
   _________
   =1 ¼ inches  Amount to trim from each end
   Actual width of blind before cuts Window opening (total from step 1)
3. Align measuring guide flush with end of blind (A). Line up the saw blade with desired cutting mark
4. Using a 10-in. sliding miter saw, 12 in. miter saw or radial arm saw (none included), lay blind (A) on saw. Slowly cut through the marks you made on blind (A). Repeat the process if cutting both ends.
   IMPORTANT: Always follow safety guidelines included with the power tool(s).

OPTIONAL: Cut valance (B) to the desired width — usually 1/2 – 1 inch wider than the blind (A) in order to hide the mounting brackets (AA).

Proceed to ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS on page 2 to complete the installation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Raise or lower the blind (A) by gripping the bottom rail and lifting or lowering the bottom rail to the desired height.
2. Open or close the blind (A) slats by turning the wand (C) until the slats are opened or closed to the desired amount.
