Importance of Limit Stops on Shadings
Limit stops serve as the upper travel limit for the bottom rail, preventing it from rotating around the fabric roll. Limit
stops are located 6" from the ends of the headrail or are centered on shadings less than 36" wide.
When a shading is made, the limit stops are adjusted according to the size of the fabric roll. Occasionally, this adjustment
changes during shipping or installation. If this happens, problems can be fixed by readjusting the limit stops. See page
17 in the Troubleshooting section if shading operation is dicult or if the bottom rail rotates around the fabric roll.
Shown below are the four possible positions of limit stops for large to small fabric rolls.

Prepare the Installation Brackets
 If using the optional back cover:
NOTE: If you have a battery wand, do not remove the top tab on the back cover
bracket. The top tab ensures that there is clearance for the battery wand.
 If you have a satellite battery pack or an 18V DC Power Supply, remove the top
tab on the back cover bracket.
 Snap the back cover bracket into the metal installation bracket.
 If not using the optimal back cover:
 If you have a battery wand, remove the bottom tab from the back cover bracket.
 Snap the back cover bracket into the metal installation bracket. This ensures
adequate space for the battery wand.
 If you have a satellite battery pack or an 18V DC Power Supply, it is not necessary
to use the back cover bracket.
Mount the Installation Brackets
 Measure 2" from each jamb for bracket location.
 If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional
bracket(s) between the two end brackets and mark their location. Mount into wood whenever possible.
 For Automation shadings with battery wand, allow a minimum of 17" between bracket centerlines for the battery wand.
NOTE: Before the headrail is installed, the bracket levers need to be fully to the left. Once the headrail is properly in place,
the levers automatically click to the right.
 Review the minimum depth requirements in the table below.
 Center the installation brackets on your marks and mark the location of the screw holes.
 Allow sufficient rear clearance when positioning the brackets. With no back cover, the bottom
tab provides the necessary clearance (
1
⁄ 4 ") for all systems except Automation and Touch Control
with a battery wand, which requires
7
⁄ 8 " rear clearance. (Rear clearance is the distance between
the back of the installation bracket and the glass or frame.) Add an extra
1
⁄ 4 " of clearance if the
optimal back cover is used.
 Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level. Shim (not provided) the brackets, if
necessary.
Remove top tab if using a satellite
battery pack or an 18V DC Power Supply.

OPERATION
Operate the Shading
A single control is used to operate both the front window shading and the rear roller shade. Operation is sequential. The front
shading must be lowered and the vanes open before the rear roller shade can be lowered. Conversely, the rear roller shade must be
raised before the vanes on the front shading can be closed and the front shading raised.
CAUTION: When raising the front shading or rear shade for the first time, observe how the fabric rolls up into the headrail. It
should roll up evenly. If the bottom rail is not level or the fabric starts to rub against either window jamb, immediately stop the
front or back shade from operating. See “Adjust the Bottom Rail Weight of the Front Shading” on page 16.
 For operation instruction, refer to the appropriate page based on your operating system.
 For the Retractable Cord system, see below.

For questions, please contract Kirsch®at 844-KIRSCH2 (844-547-7242).
Problem The headrail will not fit into the installation brackets.
Solution Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Adjust and/or shim (not provided) to level, if necessary.
Be sure the heads of the mounting screws are flush against the installation brackets.
Check that the headrail is completely inserted into the installation brackets so that the locking lever on the
installation bracket slides over the headrail. See “STEP 3: Install the Shading” on page 7.
If a Automation shading has a battery wand, check that the wand is not interfering with the installation brackets.

INSTALLATION
OPERATION
Problem Batteries in the battery wand need to be replaced.
Solution Replace the batteries in the battery wand.
Squeeze the cap latch to release the cap and remove the cap from the
battery wand.
Install the batteries according to the instructions on the battery wand
label.
Press the cap on until it latches.
NOTE: Kirsch®recommends AA alkaline batteries for use with our
battery-powered shadings. These will provide more than one year of
operation, depending on the usage. Lithium and rechargeable batteries are not recommended.
Problem Touch Control: The shading does not operate when pushing up or pulling down the wand.
Solution Unplug the power cable from the motor and li the wand to discharge any residual power, then plug the power
cable back in. A green LED should flash to indicate the motor has power. If the LED flashed red, the batteries are
drained and will need to be replaced.
NOTE: The LED is best viewed from below.
Check that the batteries in the battery wand, satellite battery pack, or C-size satellite battery wand are correctly
inserted and fresh.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, C-size satellite battery wand, or 18V 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 Touch Control: The wand detached from the activation arm when operating the shading.
Solution The wand is attached to the activation arm using a magnet and is easily reattached by touching the top of the wand
to the activation arm.
Problem Automation: The shading does not operate when the programming button is pressed.
Solution Check that the batteries in the wand or satellite battery pack are correctly inserted and have not lost power.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, or 18V DC Power Supply is securely connected to the power
cables and the cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.
Problem Automation: The shading does not respond the remote.
Solution Unplug the power cable from the motor, then plug it back in. A green LED inside the programming 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 fresh.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, C-size satellite battery wand, or 18V DC Power Supply is securely
connected to the power cable and the cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.

INSTALLATION
OPERATION
Problem The shading raises or lowers evenly, the fabric rubs against one end of the headrail, or the bottom rail is uneven
when fully raised.
Solution Check that the window is square by measuring the diagonals.
Check that the installation brackets are level. Shim (not provided) to level, if necessary.
Check that the limit stops are adjusted the same and are too tight.
Perform a skew adjustment for the front shading or rear shade. See below.
Adjust the Bottom Rail Weight of the Front Shading
 Flip up the bottom rail to access the bottom rail weight.
 To release the weight clip, insert a flat blade screwdriver into the weight clip and tun clockwise.
 Move the weight in 1" increments toward the side where the fabric is gathering.
 Secure the weight clips in position by turning them counterclockwise after
making the adjustment.
 Test and, if necessary, adjust again.
Apply Skew Adjustment Tape to the Rear Roller Shade
Using the tape strings and instruction guide in the Skew Adjustment Kit included with your order, place the tape
strips onto the window side of th rear roller shade fabric. The number of the tape strips and their placement depends
on the type and severity of the skew, as explained in the instruction guide.
Problem The shading or shade is hard to raise or lower, or will not raise or lower.
Solution Shadings cannot be forced into tight inside mount window openings. If an inside mount, check that the headrail is
installed correctly. Make sure there is clearance between the ends of the shading or shade and the window casement.
Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Adjust and/or shim (not provided) to level, if necessary.

INSTALLATION
OPERATION
Problem The shading is hard to raise or lower, or the bottom rail does not stop at the top limit.
Solution Check the adjustment position of both limit stops. The top illustration shows the
correct adjustment. The limit stop catches the bottom rail, and the bottom of the
limit stop is slightly above or barely touching the fabric roll.
In the second illustration, the limit stop adjustment is too tight. The fabric may
not drop freely and could even be damaged when the shading is raised. To correct
this, the limit stop should be adjusted one step up. Simply pull back on the rear of
the limit stop to adjust its position.
In the bottom illustration, the adjustment is too loose. The bottom rail can slip
under the limit stop. If the bottom rail rotates through the headrail, it must be
backed out before adjusting the limit stop.
IMPORTANT: Both limit stops must be adjusted to the same position or else
skewing may occur.
Problem The vanes do not open when the shading is first operated.
Solution Make sure the front shading is completely lowered and the rear shade is fully raised.
Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Adjust and/or shim (not provided) to level, if necessary.
Problem The vanes do no close fully when the shading stops in the lowest position.
Solution A small distance between the front and back fabric facings in the fully closed or open position is normal.
Automation: If this distance is excessive or moves over time, open the shading to its full “vane open” position and
try again. If this does not correct the problem, reset the bottom limit. See “Resetting the Shading (If Necessary)” on
page 14.
Problem The shading raises from the sill when the vanes are closed.
Solution A small gap between the sill and the bottom of the shading is normal in the fully lowered “vane closed” position. The
gap is necessary to allow for the unimpeded movement of the bottom rail.
Automation: If this distance is excessive or moves over time, open the shading to its full “vane open” position and
try again. If this does not correct the problem, reset the bottom limit. See “Resetting the Shading (If Necessary)” on
page 14.

INSTALLATION
OPERATION
Problem Automation Only: Adjacent shadings do not roll up evenly.
Solution It is considered normal if the roll-up on both shadings is within
5
⁄ 16 " of each other. If one shading rolls up tighter than
another, lower and raise both shadings several times.
Reset the shading. See “Resetting the Shading (If Necessary)” on page 14.
Check that the shading 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 “Adjust the Bottom Rail
Weight of the Front of the Shading” on page 17.
Problem Automation Only: 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 or satellite battery pack. Replace the batteries.
Check that the battery wand, satellite battery pack, or 18V DC Power Supply is securely connected to the power
cables and the cables are not pinched or caught in the headrail or installation brackets.
Check that there is clearance between the ends of the shading and the window casement on inside mount.
Check if the fabric rolls up evenly into the headrail. If not, see “Adjust the Bottom Rail Weight of the Front Shading”
on page 16..
Reset the upper and lower travel limits. See “Resetting the Shading (If Necessary)” on page 14.
See the Automation Remote Control Guide for operation or programming troubleshooting solutions.
Problem The front sheer fabric of the front shading clings to the rear sheer fabric.
Solution Lightly apply a static spray for home furnishings. Follow the manufacturer’s directions. Allow the shading to dry in
the fully lowered position. If necessary, reapply the static spray each time the shading is professionally cleaned.

INSTALLATION
OPERATION
Problem Touch Control Only: The shading limits need to be adjusted.
Solution Adjust the Upper Limit — available for Front Shading only.
NOTE: Programming mode timeout is 20 seconds. If there is no action within 20 seconds, programming mode exits.
 Move the shading to the fully open position(front shading and rear shade are completely inside the headrail.) See
“Basic Operation” on page 11.
 Programming Mode — In two motions: push the wand up and release, and quickly push the wand up and
hold. After approximately 6 seconds the shading will beep and a red LED behind the activator arm will blink
continuously to indicate programming mode.
 Release the wand. The upper limit is ready to be adjusted.
 Pull the wand down and release to move the front shading down. When the desired upper limit location is
reached, stop the shading. Push the wand up and hold for approximately 6 seconds until the front shading moves
slightly twice (down,up). The red LED turns off.
 Release the wand. The shading movement indicates the new upper limit is set and the shading exits programming
mode.
Adjust the Lower Limit — available for Rear Shade only. Vanes Closed and Vanes Open Limits are also set.
All three limits must be set in sequential order when in programming mode.
The mechanical limit is when the rear shade is at the maximum fully closed (down) position.
If the mechanical limit is reached while the rear shade is being adjusted, the mechanical limit will automatically
become lower limit.
NOTE: Programming mode timeout is 20 seconds. If there is no action within 20 seconds, programming mode exits.
Adjust the Lower Limit
 Move the front shading and rear shade to the fully closed (down) position. Vanes are fully open. See “Basic
Operation” 11.
 Programming Mode — In two motions: pull the wand down and release, and quickly pull the wand down and
hold. After approximately 6 seconds the shading will beep and a red LED behind the activator arm will blink
continuously to indicate programming mode.
 Release the wand. The lower limit is ready to be adjusted.
IMPORTANT: For the following step, if you pull the wand down, it will set the bottom limit at the fully down position
(mechanical limit) and then automatically go to the vanes closed position for adjustment.
 Push the wand up and release to move the rear shade up. When the desired lower limit location is reached, stop
the rear shade.
 Pull the wand down and hold for approximately 6 seconds until the rear shade moves slightly twice (up, down or
down, up).
 Release the wand. The rear shade movement indicates the new lower limit is set.
 The rear shade moves to the fully open position and the front shading moves to the vanes closed position.
Set the Vanes Closed Limit
 Push the wand up or pull down to move the front shading to the desired closed vanes position. Stop movement
when the desired closed position is reached.
 Pull the wand down and hold for approximately 6 seconds until the front shading or vanes move slightly twice
and the vanes fully open.
 Release the wand. The shading or vane movement indicates the new vanes closed limit is set.
Set the Vanes Open Limit
 Push the wand up or pull down to move the vanes to the desired open vanes position. Make sure the rear shade
does not come down. Stop movement when the desired open position is reached.
 Pull the wand down and hold for approximately 6 seconds until the rear shade or vanes move slightly twice.
 Release the wand. The shading or vane movement indicates the new vane open limit is set and the shading exits
programming mode.
