2 Intended use

3 Fitting the roller blind

3.1 Fixing the roller blind

The fastening of the roller blind is different for roller blinds that are under 1 m in width and those that are 1 m in width or wider. Wide roller blinds must have an additional bracket for the cassette fixed at the top.

NOTICE!

• If the screws supplied do not hold in the wall, you must use plugs suitable for the wall construction. • Make sure you do not drill through the wall.

▶ Proceed as illustrated (fig. 2, page 2 to fig. 11, page 7). ▶Align the blind with the window cut-out. ▶Pre-drill if the wall construction requires this. ▶Fasten the blind to the wall with the screws. ▶ Fasten the guide rails to the wall with the screws, at right-angles to the cassette.

All steps with width specifications must only be performed for roller blinds with the corresponding width of over 1 m or under 1 m. For roller blinds with a width over 1 m, the top cassette must be fixed with an additional bracket. Determine the position for fastening the bracket as illustrated (fig. 5, page 4).

3.2 Adjusting the tension of the roller blinds

NOTICE!

Always adjust the tension on the right and left in parallel. Otherwise, damage may be caused to the roller blind in the long term.

Tensioning the insect screen

▶ Rotate the central part of the tensioning fitting to increase or decrease the tension of the insect screen (fig. 13, page 8).

Tensioning the blackout pleated blind

Tension the blackout pleated blind as follows:

- to a certain extent by tensioning the cords (fig. 12 1, page 7) with springs (fig. 12 2, page 7), that are located on the right and left of the cassette

or

- at the endpiece of the guide rail (fig. 2, page 2 and fig. 3, page 3)

4 Using the roller blind

4.1 Closing the roller blind

NOTICE! Risk of damage due to a build-up of heat between the roller blind and the window!

In strong sunlight, only close the blackout roller blind two thirds of the way.

Pull the blackout roller blind and the insect screen by the handle strip to the desired position. When the tension has been set correctly the roller blinds stay in the closed position.

4.2 Opening the roller blind

NOTICE! Risk of damage

Never let the blackout roller blind spring back.

Pull the blackout roller blind and the insect screen by the handle strip to the desired, open position. The handle strips of the roller blinds hold firm in every position.

5 Troubleshooting

The insect screen or blackout roller blind cannot be moved.

▶ Check the guide rails for dirt. ▶ Clean the guide rails if necessary.

The tension of the roller blind is insufficient.

▶ Tension the cords at the end of the guide rails or at the springs located on the right and left of the cassette.

6 Cleaning and care

NOTICE!

Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning as these may damage the product.

▶ Occasionally clean the product with a damp cloth. ▶ To prevent material fatigue, do not keep the blind closed for long periods of time. ▶ If the vehicle is stationary for long periods of time, pull up the blackout roller blind until the individual honeycombs are pulled apart slightly. So the honeycomb system is ventilated on both sides to prevent the formation of mildew.
