1. USAGE
Generally, pleated blinds are very easy and comfortable to use.
In order to use the pleated blind without any difficulties, it must be ensured beforehand that the curtain can move freely, i.e. that there is nothing
in the way when it is brought down and that there is no resistance present when pulling it back up. If this is not the case, then it can result in
damage to the curtain or the mechanism. If the curtain is blocked during usage then the cords or the motor and the operating elements can be
damaged!
To maintain the pleats, it is recommended that the blind is used regularly (once a month).
Pleated blinds offer excellent protection from the sun and are also effective against prying eyes. Usually, products from

are made in
accordance with generally valid regulations and norms, and guidelines with regard to closing behaviour and operating forces are adhered to.
A lowered blind does not protect either a person or an animal from falling out of the window.
Improper use can impair the functionality and the safety of your blind.
The warranty claim becomes invalid in case of improper use - please also see our General Terms and Conditions of Delivery.
A light pull on the pull cord on the curtain releases the brake and the blind falls.
To stop this, simply move the cord towards the curtain. An audible click signals that the brake was operated.
If the upper rail is assembled at too high a height (over 4m) then the lack of an angle can lead to difficulties in opening and closing the brake.
1.1 PLEATED BLIND WITH DRAWSTRING
The curtain can be brought into the desired position by moving the upper or lower rail on the operating handle.
The special threading technology allows for adjustments to be carried out in a continuous manner.
Uneven load on the operating handle can result in the rails becoming skewed. This can be solved by means of a setting on the operating hand-
le.
1.2 PLEATED BLINDS WITH OPERATING HANDLE
Opening and closing the curtain is done by pulling with equal force on both sides of the chain. To prevent damage, breakage of the chain must
be avoided at all costs.
To stop, simply leave the chain in the desired position.
1.3 PLEATED BLINDS WITH BALL CHAIN
Raising and releasing of the curtain is done by means of a crank. Use of the pleated blind must be done without excessive force. The crank
must only be operated in the direction that is provided.
When reaching the end stop, do not try to turn the crank any further.
