OPERATION
Problem The shade does not operate when liing or pulling wand.
Solution ■ Unplug the power cable from the motor, then plug it back in. A green LED will flash twice 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 fresh (see “Replace the batteries in the battery wand.” on page 9) and securely connected to the
power cable and the cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.
Problem The bottom rail does not raise or lower completely, or its location when fully lowered has changed 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.
■ Reset the travel limits. See “Adjust the Shade Limits (If Necessary)” on page 9.
Problem The wand detached from the activation arm when operating the shade.
