3. Installation Guide

Follow these steps for proper installation of your vertical blinds. Ensure you have the necessary tools including a drill, screwdriver, measuring tape, and pencil.

1. Measure and Mark: Determine the desired mounting location (inside or outside the window/door frame). Measure the width and height, ensuring the top of the mounting brackets will be 84.5 inches or more from the floor. Mark the positions for the brackets, typically 5-12 inches from each end of the headrail, and a centered bracket if needed.
2. Drill Pilot Holes: Using a drill, create pilot holes at the marked locations for the mounting brackets. Insert wall anchors if drilling into drywall.
3. Attach Brackets: Securely fasten the mounting brackets to the wall or frame using screws. Ensure they are level and firmly attached.
4. Install Headrail: Carefully place the headrail into the installed brackets. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
5. Attach Vanes: Hang each vinyl vane onto the carriers in the headrail. Ensure all vanes are facing the same direction.
6. Install Valance (if applicable): Attach the decorative valance to the front of the headrail, if your model includes one.
7. Attach Wand Control: Connect the wand control to the designated mechanism on the headrail. The wand can be placed on either the left or right side for flexible operation.

4. Operating Instructions

Your Project Source vertical blinds are designed for simple and intuitive operation using the attached wand control.

• Opening/Closing Blinds: To open or close the blinds, gently pull the wand control horizontally across the track. The vanes will slide along the track, stacking neatly to one side.
• Adjusting Vane Angle: To adjust the angle of the vanes and control the amount of light entering the room, twist the wand control. This action rotates the vanes, allowing you to achieve your desired level of privacy and light filtration.
• Child Safety: The cordless wand control design enhances child and pet safety by eliminating hazardous cords. If desired, the wand can be easily detached and stored out of reach.

5. Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Project Source vertical blinds, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning: Spot clean only. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water to gently wipe down the vinyl slats. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Dusting: Regularly dust the blinds with a soft cloth or a duster to prevent dust buildup. The anti-static properties of the vinyl help reduce dust accumulation.
• Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the blinds in water or machine wash, as this can damage the material and operating mechanisms.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your vertical blinds, consider the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Vanes Not Rotating: Check if the wand control is properly attached and not obstructed. Ensure no debris is caught in the headrail mechanism.
• Blinds Not Opening/Closing Smoothly: Inspect the track for any obstructions or damage. Ensure the vanes are not tangled or misaligned. Gently guide the wand to free any sticking points.
• Damaged Vanes: Individual vanes can often be replaced if damaged. Contact customer support for replacement parts.
• Headrail Issues: If the headrail appears damaged or the carriers are not functioning, professional assistance may be required.
