Installation Instructions

Measuring for Installation

Accurate measurement is critical for a proper fit. Lumino blinds are precision-cut to be ½ inch narrower than the ordered width for inside mounts. Please measure carefully:

1. For Inside Mount:
   • Width: Measure the width of the window frame at the top, middle, and bottom. Record the narrowest measurement.
   • Height: Measure the height of the window frame at the left, center, and right. Record the shortest measurement.
   • Order a blind with the final measurements from steps 1 and 2. The blind will arrive ½" narrower than the ordered width to fit comfortably inside your window casing.
2. For Outside Mount:
   • Width: Measure the width of the area you want to cover at the top, middle, and bottom. Ensure you have at least 1.5" on the left and right of the window opening (3" total) to avoid light gaps. Record the largest measurement, then add 0.5". This will account for the ½" deduction (see note to the right).
   • Height: Measure the height of the area you want to cover at the left, center, and right. Ensure you have at least 1.5" above the window so there are no light gaps. Record the longest measurement.
   • Order a blind with the final measurements from steps 1 and 2.

Mounting the Blinds

Once measurements are confirmed, proceed with mounting:

1. Mark the desired location for the mounting brackets using a pencil, ensuring they are level.
2. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If mounting into drywall, use the provided wall anchors.
3. Secure the mounting brackets using the provided screws.
4. Carefully insert the headrail of the blind into the installed brackets, ensuring it clicks securely into place.
5. Attach the classic valance to the front of the headrail using the pre-built clips. Ensure it snaps firmly into position to conceal the hardware.

Operating Your Cordless Blinds

Your Lumino cordless blinds are designed for easy and safe operation:

• To Raise: Gently push the bottom rail of the blind upwards with both hands. The blind will stay in place at the desired height.
• To Lower: Gently pull the bottom rail of the blind downwards with both hands. The blind will extend to the desired length.
• To Tilt Slats: Use the clear wand located on the side of the blind. Rotate the wand to open or close the slats, controlling light and privacy.
