INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
To install your shade, you will need to perform the following three steps:
STEP 1: Install the Brackets
STEP 2: Install the Shade
STEP 3: Connect the Power Source
STEP 1 — INSTALL THE BRACKETS
■Your order will include the correct number of installation
brackets for your shade width, as shown in the table.
➤For end mounts, only two brackets are used up to the
maximum width of 72".
IMPORTANT: A
1
/ 2 " spacer block is required for shades
using an attached battery wand. The spacer block is
pre-attached to the back of the installation bracket.
■Should the spacer block become detached, reattach it.
➤Insert the legs of the installation bracket
into the tabs onthespacer block.
➤Rotate the installation bracket back,
asshown, to snap it in place.

Mounting Types and Window Terminology
If the installation brackets are mounted correctly, the rest of the installation process follows
easily. To prepare for this important first step, review the mounting types and basic window
terminology illustrated below.
■Refer to the appropriate page below based on your order:
➤Inside Mount — Below
➤Outside Mount — Page 6
➤End Mount — Page 8
MOUNT THE INSTALLATION BRACKETS — INSIDE MOUNT
■Mark 2" in from each jamb for bracket location.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional bracket(s)
evenly between the two end brackets. Allow a minimum of 15" between the
brackets at the motor end for the battery wand. Mount into wood whenever
possible.
■Center the brackets on your marks, then mark each of the screw holes.
➤Mounting depths vary depending on the power option. See the chart on the next page
for minimum and fully recessed depth requirements.
➤Mark both winged screwholes with shallow mounting depths.
➤Mark the center screw hole when depth permits.
Outside Mount
Shade mounts outside
window opening.
Inside Mount

■Mark 2" from each end of the headrail.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space them evenly
between the two end brackets and mark their location. Allow a minimum of 15"
between the brackets at the motor end for the battery wand. Mount into wood
whenever possible.
■Center the brackets on your marks, then mark each of the screwholes.
➤A minimum of 1
1
