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 below.
■Shade orders will also include spacer blocks if needed for added clearance.
Mounting Types and Window Terminology
If the installation brackets are mounted correctly, the rest of the shade 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 the mounting type chosen for your order:
➤Inside Mount — Page 4
➤Outside Mount — Page 5
➤End Mount — Page 6
Outside Mount
Shade mounts outside
window opening.
Inside Mount
Shade fits within
window opening.
Collectively, the sill and
jambs are called the
“window casement.”

■Measure and mark 3" in from each jamb for bracket location.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your order, mark the location of the
additional bracket(s) spaced evenly between the two end brackets. Mount into wood
whenever possible. Allow a minimum of 18" from the motor side for the battery
wand.
■Center the brackets on yourmarks, then mark the screw hole locations.
➤The minimum casement depth for installation
brackets is 1" (1

front set of bracket holes when depth permits.
IMPORTANT: For shades with a battery wand, allow
a minimum of
5
/ 8 " clearance behind the brackets to
accommodate the wand.
■Drill the screw holes using a
3
/ 32 " drill bit.
CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.

Mount the Installation Brackets — Outside Mount
■Center the headrail over the window opening at the desired height. Use a pencil to lightly
mark each end of the headrail.
➤Alternatively, measure the width of the headrail and use that width to mark the headrail
end points over the window opening.
■Measure and mark 3" in from each end of the headrail.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your order, mark the location of the
additional bracket(s) spaced evenly between the two end brackets. Mount into wood
whenever possible. Allow a minimum of 18" from the motor side for the battery
wand.
■Center the brackets on yourmarks, then mark the screw hole locations.
➤A minimum 1" flat vertical surface is required.
➤The top of the installation brackets should be at
the desired height. The brackets must be level
andaligned.
CAUTION: The rear of the brackets must be flush
against a flat mounting surface. Do not mount brackets
oncurved molding.
■Drill the screw holes using a
3
/ 32 " drill bit.
CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.
■Attach the installation brackets using the screws provided.
IMPORTANT: If using a battery wand, use a minimum
of one
1

Troubleshooting
If your shade is not operating correctly:
■First review the guide that came with your control device.
■Refer to the following troubleshooting procedures for specific solutions for your shade.
If questions remain, please contact the Hunter Douglas Customer Information Center at
1-888-501-8364.
Problem The shade will not snap into the installation brackets.
Solution If the shade has a battery wand, check that the wand is not interfering with the
installation brackets.
Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Adjust and/or shim to
level, if necessary.
Be sure the heads of the mounting screws are flush against the installation
bracket.
Check that the headrail is completely inserted into the installation brackets. See
“STEP 2 — Install the Shade” on page 7.
Problem The shade does not operate using the manual control button.
Solution Unplug the power cable from the motor, then plug it back in. A green LED inside
the manual control button housing should flash to indicate the motor has power.
Check that the batteries in the battery wand, satellite battery pack, or C-size
satellite battery wand are correctly inserted andarefresh.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, C-size satellite battery
wand, or DC power supply is securely connected to the power cable and the
cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.
Problem The shade is not responding to the PowerView™remote.
Solution IMPORTANT: A shade will not operate using the remote until it has been
joined to a group.
Check that the correct group number is selected.
Check that the batteries in the remote are correctly inserted andarefresh. The
LEDs that backlight the remote should come on full bright when ■ STOP is
pressed.

OPERATION
17
Problem The front fabric appears to cling to the back fabric.
Solution Lightly apply a static spray for home furnishings. Follow the manufacturer’s
directions. Allow the shade to dry in the fully lowered position.
If necessary, reapply the static spray each time the shade is professionally
cleaned.
Problem The bottom rail does not raise completely, or lower completely, or its
location when fully lowered has migrated over time.
Solution The batteries may be low in the battery wand, satellite battery pack, or C-size
satellite battery wand. Replace the batteries.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, C-size satellite battery
wand, or DC power supply is securely connected to the power cable and the
cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.
Check that there is clearance between the ends of the shade and the window
casement on inside mounts.
Check if the fabric rolls up evenly into the headrail. If not, see “Adjusting the
Bottom Rail Weight” on page18.
The shade may need to be reset. Refer to “Resetting the Shade” on page15.
Problem Adjacent shades do not roll up evenly.
Solution It is considered normal if the roll-up on both shades is within
5
/ 16 " of each
other. If one shade rolls up tighter than another, repeatedly lower and raise both
shades.
Check that the shade fabric is not catching on any brackets or components.
Check that the fabric winds evenly and does not rub against the headrail. If
uneven, see “Adjusting the Bottom Rail Weight” on page18.

OPERATION
18
Problem The shade raises or lowers unevenly, the bottom rail is not level when fully
raised, or the fabric winds unevenly or starts to rub against one end of the
headrail.
Solution Check that the installation brackets are level. Shim to level, if necessary.
Check if the window is out-of-square by measuring the diagonals. Shim the
installation brackets to level, if necessary.
If the headrail is level and the window is square, adjust the bottom rail weight.
Adjusting the Bottom Rail Weight
To adjust, access the bottom rail weight from the back of the shade.
Push up on the weight clips to release.
Slide the weight in 1" increments, toward the side where the fabric is gathering.
Lower the shade all the way and check that the bottom rail is level. Adjust the
weight until the fabric winds evenly and does not gather on either side.
After final adjustments, slide the weight clips back into place.
