6. Maintenance & Cleaning

Regular maintenance helps prolong the life and appearance of your Graywind Vertical Blinds. Always handle with care.

6.1 General Dusting

For routine cleaning, gently remove dust using a feather duster or a handheld vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Ensure the blinds are fully extended when dusting.

6.2 Spot Cleaning

For partial cleaning or stains, use a well-wrung cloth or sponge dipped in a solution of mild dish-washing detergent and lukewarm water. Gently blot the stained area. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive scrubbing, as this may damage the fabric.

• Important: Do not iron vinyl fabrics or foam-coated fabrics directly.
• For wrinkled parts on non-vinyl/foam-coated fabrics, gently stretch the fabric by hand and iron at a low temperature.

If you encounter any issues with your Graywind Motorized Vertical Blinds, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

  • Check your Wi-Fi connection (2.4G) if using app or voice control.
