A constant-tension cord system holds them at
the desired level without slipping.
Sun Filter
The lower section is a translucent white shade
that can be lowered for privacy without
darkening the inside of the coach. It can also filter
out harsh direct sunlight to help keep the inside of
the coach cool in summer or to disperse light for
houseplants.
Room Darkening/Privacy Shade
The upper section is an opaque, darkening
shade for nighttime privacy and daytime room
darkening purposes. Pull both sections down
together or separately.
Tension Adjustment
The tension of the pleated blinds can be
adjusted if they become loose and will not stay up
when raised, or they are too tight and are difficult
to raise and lower.
The tension cords are attached to spools at the
lower corners of the blinds as shown in the
following photo.
To Tighten Tension
Wrap the tension cords around the mounting
spools, one turn at a time, at both ends of the
shade. Check tension by raising and lowering a
few times. Repeat as necessary to obtain the
desired tension. Do not over-tighten.
To Loosen Tension
Unwrap the guide cords from the spools, one
turn at a time, until desired tension is achieved.
FURNITURE AND SOFTGOODS
Preserving Shape
The pleated blinds are made using high
quality materials that are designed and woven to
retain their shape throughout their useful life.
They may lose their crisp shape, however, if left
in a lowered position for an extended period of
time without being raised periodically. If this
happens, the pleats can be restored using this
simple method.
With the blind fully lowered, dampen the
entire area of the pleats with a good quality
laundry spray starch.
Raise the blind fully while still damp and let it
remain in the raised position for about 24
hours.
Reapply starch periodically (every few
months) as needed.
ROLLER SHADES (MANUAL) -
SOLAR DAY/NIGHT
–If Equipped
Your coach may feature two-stage day/night
roller shades that provide both solar heat
protection and light-blocking capabilities.
The shade can easily be lowered by hand to
any position, then retracted with a slight
downward pull movement. When raising the
shade, there is no need to hold onto the bottom of
the shade - just simply let it go and it will rise at
a slow, controlled rate.
You can pre-set the auto-stop positioning of
your shade, which allows your shade to retract to
a cushioned stop, at the positioning of your
choice.
