5. Setup and Installation
5.1. Measuring for Installation
Accurate measurements are crucial for proper fit and function. Determine whether you will use an inside mount or an outside mount.
This image illustrates the correct method for measuring your window for both inside and outside mount installations, including considerations for wall depth and added width/height.
Inside Mount:
- Order Width: Measure the exact inside width of the window frame at the top, middle, and bottom. Use the smallest measurement.
- Order Length: Measure the exact inside length of the window frame.
- Wall Depth: Ensure your window frame has a minimum depth of 1.81 inches for the blind to fit flush.
Outside Mount:
- Order Width: Measure the window frame width and add 4-6 inches for optimal light blockage and coverage.
- Order Height: Measure the window frame height and add 4-6 inches for optimal coverage.
5.2. Mounting the Blind
Follow these steps for secure installation:
This image provides a clear, step-by-step visual guide for installing the roller blind, from securing brackets to snapping the blind into place.
- Step 1: Secure Brackets. Position the mounting brackets according to your chosen mount type (inside or outside). Mark the screw locations and drill pilot holes. Securely fasten the brackets using the provided screws and wall anchors.
- Step 2: Align and Snap. Carefully align the roller blind's top rail with the installed brackets. Push the blind upwards until it snaps securely into place. Ensure both ends are firmly seated.
- Step 3: Final Check. Gently pull down on the shade to confirm it is securely installed and does not wobble.
5.3. Battery Installation/Replacement
The M100 motor system is powered by 6 AA batteries, which are typically included and pre-installed. If replacement is needed, follow these steps:
