To adjust the upper and lower limits on a Springs Window Fashions motorized shade using a remote with three buttons (round top button “MY”, UP arrow, and DOWN arrow), follow these steps:
To adjust the lower limit: 1. Disconnect power to all other shades to avoid unwanted adjustments. 2. Move the shade to your desired lower limit using the UP or DOWN buttons. The shade only moves while the button is pressed. 3. When the shade reaches the new lower limit, press and hold both the UP and DOWN buttons at the same time for about 5 seconds until the shade jogs (moves briefly up and down). 4. Press and hold the “MY” button for about 3 seconds until the shade jogs again. The new lower limit is now saved.
To adjust the upper limit (optional): 1. Move the shade to your desired upper position using the UP or DOWN buttons. 2. When the shade stops at the desired upper limit, press and hold both the UP and DOWN buttons for about 5 seconds until the shade jogs. 3. Press and hold the “MY” button for about 3 seconds until the shade jogs again. The new upper limit is now saved.
