Outside Recess

If the blind is to be fitted outside the window ensure that measurement C is the same. C is simply equal to A minus B, divided by two. Follow instructions for FACE FIXING.

Inside Recess

If TOP FIXING, fix to the lintel if the window frame is uPVC or if there are no obstructions. If FACE FIXING, fit bracket to the window frame.

WARNING

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