Thank you for purchasing Hunter Douglas Skyline®Gliding Window Panels with PowerView™
Motorization. With proper installation, operation, and care, your new unit will provide years of
beauty and performance. Please thoroughly review this instruction booklet before beginning the
installation.
Mounting Types and Window Terminology
If the installation brackets are mounted correctly, the rest of the installation process follows very
easily. To prepare for this important first step, review the mounting types and basic window
terminology illustrated below.
Unpack the Box
■Carefully remove the rolled up fabric panels and set aside. Locate the panels marked
“FRONT — INSTALL LAST” and “REAR — INSTALL FIRST.” Do not unroll the panels until
installation. Carefully remove the headrail and optional valance from the packaging. Keep
all packaging until the unit operates to your satisfaction.
■Save these instructions for care and cleaning, unit removal, panel removal, and
reinstallationprocedures.
■Check the Product Views on pages 6 and 7 to make sure you have all of the necessary
parts. Contents of the hardware package may vary depending upon how the unit was
ordered and how it will be mounted.
Outside Mount
Panels mounted outside
window opening.
Inside Mount
Panels fit within

Collectively, the sill and

“window casement.”

Installation Components Required
■Installation Brackets. This style of mounting bracket
is used for outside mounts. The number of installation
brackets required varies based on headrail width, as
shown in the table above.
■Mounting Clips. This style of mounting clip is used for inside
mounts. The number of mounting clips required varies based
on headrail width, as shown in the tableabove.
■Splice Clip. A splice clip allows a long headrail to be split
in half during shipping, and reconnected during installation.
Once installed, a spliced headrail functions seamlessly as if it
were onepiece.
■Valance Splice Clip. A valance splice clip allows a long valance
to be split in half during shipping, and reconnected during installation.
Once installed, a spliced valance functions seamlessly as if it were
onepiece.

■Fabric-Wrapped Large Cassette Installation Bracket.
This style of installation bracket is used for Skyline®units ordered
with the fabric-wrapped large cassette. The brackets are used in
both inside and outside mount applications. The number of
installation brackets required varies based on headrail width, as
shown in the tablebelow.
■Fabric-Wrapped Cassette Splice Clip. This component is only
provided with Skyline units ordered specifically with a spliced headrail.
This clip joins two pieces of the cassette together. Once installed, a
spliced cassette functions seamlessly as if it were onepiece. If you have
not ordered the Skyline unit with a spliced fabric-wrapped large cassette,
you will not receive this component.
■Fabric-Wrapped Large Cassette Splice Cover. This is the decorative
trim cover over the fabric seam in a spliced fabric-wrapped large
cassette. It will also be used when the fabric is seamed. The fabric
seaming is sometimes necessary to obtain the full width of the
cassette. In this case, the splice cover will be installed by the
fabricator. If you have not ordered the Skyline unit with a fabric-
wrapped large cassette, you will not receive this component.
■PowerView™ Receiver. This device is used to receive radio
frequency signals from PowerView™control components and
provides a manual control button.

■DC Power Supply. The power supply provides DC power to the unit
motor assembly and the receiver. The power supply operates on
power from 100-240 VAC and 47-63 Hz. Each unit needs enough
wire length to allow the DC power supply to reach the wall outlet
nearest the unit or in the least obtrusive location.
■PowerView™Pebble™ Remote. Remote controls are used
to control the unit. Replacements may be ordered should the
remote control be lost or if an additional remote control is
desired. Unless otherwise ordered, each unit ships with one
remote control and batteries. You may have ordered a Surface
Remote instead of the Pebble Remote.
■Wire Retainers. These are used to secure the power cord to
the wall. In some cases, they may also be used to secure the
wire from the receiver to the wall. Both the nail-in and self-
adhesive wire retainers are included.
Optional Components
■Valance Brackets Inside Mount. The number of valance
brackets will be the same as the number of installationbrackets
shown in the table on page 2.
■Valance Brackets Outside Mount. The number of valance
brackets will be the same as the number of installation brackets
shown in the table on page 2.
