Protecting Your Children
■
■
Please be aware that blind cords or chains pose a strangulation hazard for children. To reduce the
risk of strangulation this internal window covering must be installed in such a way that a loose
cord cannot form a loop 220 mm or longer at a height of less than 1600mm above floor level.
■
■
Your blind is provided with a cord guide. It is essential that the following installation instructions
are adhered to:
■
■
The cord guide may be installed lower than 1600mm above floor level if the cord is sufficiently
secured or tensioned to prevent a loop of 220mm or longer being formed;
■
■
If a cord guide is installed lower than 1600mm above floor level it must be fitted to prevent a
child from being able to remove the cords.

Child Safety Installation Instructions
■
■
Be aware that it is possible for children to strangle in window covering cords. To reduce the
possibility of such an accident, all cords and chains must be kept out of reach of children,
including infants. Cord cleats and cord tensioners are an effective way to implement this
essential precaution.
