Controlling the window shades

The window shades in the living room and kitchen are motorized and can be controlled using the remote control in the kitchen or the pull chains on each shade.

Using the remote control

  • The remote control, located in the kitchen between the window and the patio door, can be used to control each window shade independently.
  • The shades are identified by sequential numbers, starting with 1 on the far right (single) window in the living room, and ending with 5 in the kitchen.
  • The SHADE SELECT button is used to select which shade will be controlled. The number of lit indicator lights will match the shade number. For example, if one indicator is lit, then the far right window in the living room will be controlled.
  • Use the UP ARROW to raise the shade, and the DOWN ARROW to lower it. The STOP button will stop the shade at the current position.
  • Shades will automatically stop at the top or bottom position.

Using the Pull Switch

  • Each window has its own pull switch
  • Gently pull and release the chain to start the movement of the shade. It will move in the opposite direction of whatever its last movement was.
  • When the shade is in motion, gently pull and release the chain again if you want to stop it before it reaches the bottom or top.
  • Gently pull and release the chain again to send the shade in the opposite direction.
