Side Control Roller Blinds - Child Safety

WARNING

Young children can strangle in the loop of pull cords, chains and tapes, and
cords that operate window coverings. They can also wrap cords around their
necks. To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep cords out of the reach
of young children. Move beds, cots and furniture away from window
covering cords.

“Complete elimination of the strangulation risk can only be achieved by keeping cords, chains, and tapes and similar
out of the reach of children. Use of additional safety devices may reduce the risk of strangulation but cannot be
considered foolproof ... Persons in charge of children are ultimately responsible for following the safety instructions
provided by the manufacturer.” EN 13120

insert female section into this. Keep cords and

Part Code No. R9840

Fitting the Brackets

The bracket positions illustrated are for a blind with the control chain on the right hand side of

the blind. Brackets can be top, side or face fixed to any flat surface. They must be level to

ensure the smooth operation of the blind. Check that the rolled up fabric will not touch any

surface. To calculate the spacing between the brackets, add 35mm (13/8”) to the width of the

blind fabric. Fix the brackets so that the outsides of the brackets are this distance apart.

Blinds with Side Control Chain

Fitting the Blind

Hold the blind to the brackets with the fabric hanging from the back of the blind. Fit the spring

plunger into its bracket and push the blind into the bracket, depressing the plunger. When fitted

ensure that the plunger is depressed by at least 4mm. With the locating hook pointing

downwards, place the control end into the vertical part of the ‘+’ shaped hole in the bracket.

Allow the hook to drop downwards so that it locks into place in the bracket.

IMPORTANT

Please read the child safety information attached to your blind.

When fitted ensure plunger is

depressed by at least 4mm
