The dimensions supplied on the order form must be correct for the shade to properly fit the window opening. Measuring for Outside Mounts DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES Rectangular Shades Rectangular shades include: • Standard Rectangular • Duette with UltraGlide • Top-Down • Top-Down/Bottom-Up • Duette Duolite • Two-On-One Headrail • Manhattan EasyRise • Duette EasyRise • Duette Easy Glide • Duette with PowerRise Measuring procedures are the same for each of these types of rectangular shades. While our specialty hardware systems – Duette Simplicity, Duette Skyrise, Duette Vertiglide, and Duette Smart Shade – can also be considered rectangular, their measuring procedures differ slightly and will be discussed separately. Inside Mount or Outside Mount Outside Mount (OB) Measure the desired width and height. To minimize light leakage, it’s recommended that the shade overlap the window opening at least 2" on each side and at the bottom. When measuring the height, take into account the requirements for mounting bracket attachment. “Rounding” Your Measurements Dimensions on the order form should be accurate to within 1⁄ 8". With inside mounts, always round down to the nearest 1⁄ 8". For example, 3⁄16" rounds to 1⁄ 8". Rounding up could result in a shade that is too wide to fit within the window opening. Outside Mount Measuring for Inside Mounts Arches and Circles Measure the width inside the window opening at the top, middle and bottom. Measure the height inside the window opening at the left, right and center. Included in this category are Duette EasyView, arch, circle and quarter circle. The basic rules for measuring rectangular shades apply to arches and circles, as well. How you take your measurements will vary depending upon whether the shade fits within the window opening (inside mount or IB) or overlaps the window opening (outside mount or OB). Arch Circle Quarter Circle Inside Mount Inside Mount (IB) DU-8 Order the narrowest width measurement and the shortest height measurement. Remember to always round your measurements down to the nearest 1⁄8". Be sure the window opening is deep enough to install the mounting bracket. For inside mounts, measure the exact width and height inside the window opening. For outside mounts, measure the desired width and height. Always measure the height at its tallest point. Effective date 6/1/99 DUETTE ® Height MEASURING GUIDELINES S Slope Angle TEMPLATE REQUIRED LH Width Perfect Imperfect Height RH TW W The angle is measured in degrees using a protractor. Record all your measurements on the template you create for the shade. Use the tallest height measurement when pricing the shade. TEMPLATE REQUIRED LS Specialty Shapes Width Templates Required Whether an arch is perfect or imperfect, a template for each shade must be sent with the order. Templates are also required with angles and specialty shades. Guidelines for preparing templates are shown within the General Information section. Be sure to cut-out all templates. Angles With angles, either the top or bottom of the shade is sloped, or angled. All four sides must be measured to ensure accurate fabrication. Measure the inside of the window opening for inside mounts. When measuring for outside mounts, remember to add the desired amount of overlap. In the following diagram, the vertical measurements are labeled “LH” for left height and “RH” for right height. The horizontal measurements are labeled “S” for slope and “W” for width. The “slope angle” is the angle between the slope and a horizontal line. Effective date 6/1/99 With specialty shapes, one or more sides of the shade are angled. Specialty shapes include hexagons, octagons and trapezoids. The procedures for measuring hexagons and octagons are similar to those for rectangular shades. Simply measure the window height and width appropriately for an inside or outside mount. Be sure to measure the width at the shade’s widest point. Inside Mount Outside Mount RS H BW LR RR TW TEMPLATE REQUIRED RS H BW RR Duette Simplicity TEMPLATE REQUIRED When measuring for trapezoids, measure the window height, the top and bottom widths, and the length of the sloped side(s). Then measure what the width reduction of the shorter rail will be on each side. The maximum reduction is 9" per side. The procedures for measuring window openings for Duette Simplicity are identical to those for standard rectangular shades. For inside mounts, measure the width and height at three locations inside the window opening. Order the narrowest width and the shortest height. For outside mounts, measure the desired height and width allowing for an appropriate amount of overlap. DU-9 DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES With perfect arches and circles, the height will either equal the width (circle and quarter circle) or equal one-half the width (arch). With imperfect arches, these simple height/width relationships do not occur. TEMPLATE REQUIRED In the diagrams shown below, “H” is the vertical height, “TW” and “BW” are the top and bottom widths, “LS” and “RS” are the lengths of the left and right sloped sides, and “LR” and “RR” are the left and right width reductions of the shorter rail. Record all measurements on your template. Use the widest width measurement when pricing the shade. DUETTE ® DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES MEASURING GUIDELINES The inside mounting depth requirements are different from standard rectangular shades, however, because of the side rails which are used with the shade. For fully recessed flush mounting, 111⁄16" is required for 3⁄8" pleat sizes and 2 1⁄2" for 1⁄2", 3⁄4", Double and Triple Honeycomb fabrics. For bracket attachment, 1" is needed for 3⁄8" pleat sizes, and 11⁄8" for the other fabrics. Outside mounting surface requirements are the same as those for standard rectangular shades. Duette Skyrise With the Duette Skyrise hardware system, the measuring procedures for outside mounts are the same as for rectangular shades. With inside-mounted shades, measure the width and height inside of the window opening in at least three locations each, as before. If the window opening is longer than 96", the width should be measured every 48". Order the shortest height and the narrowest width. For fully recessed inside mounts, a 2" minimum mounting depth of the window opening is required. Non-flush mounted inside mounts are not recommended; but, if necessary, a Skyrise shade may protrude up to 1⁄2". Note that mounting depths must take into account any obstacles to shade movement, such as window cranks or handles. Outside mounts require only a 1⁄2" flat surface for bracket attachment. In addition to shade measurements, the angle of the window should also be noted on the order form. 60° 75° 90° 45° 30° 15° 0° Duette Vertiglide For inside mounts, the width at the top of the opening is critical. Measure the top width and measure the height at the left, right and center of the opening. Outside mounts are built to the exact ordered width and height. Allow 3" to 6" overlap on each side, and at least 3⁄4" of floor clearance on the bottom. Duette Smart Shade Except with certain greenhouse window applications, Duette Smart Shades are only installed as inside mounts. Follow the same measuring procedures as for standard rectangular shades. Measure the exact inside dimensions in three locations and specify the narrowest width. Measure the height from the bottom sill to the top. For greenhouse windows, additional measurements are required. These include: • The width of the glazing bars. • The depth of the glazing bars. • The narrowest clearance between the inside edge of the main glazing bars and cross-dash members or other obstructions. Length 48" 48" Clearance 48" Width Round your inside mount measurements up to the nearest 1 ⁄8", not down as with other inside mounts. The factory deductions take into account the application of compressible foam tape (rail seal) to the outside of the rails. DU-10 Glazing Bar Width For fully recessed flush mounting, 3 1⁄4" is required. For bracket attachment, a minimum of 1" is required (using the plastic installation bracket). In addition to the measurements, the model and manufacturer of the greenhouse should be noted, if possible.

For added clearance, the bracket can be used with standard Duette spacer blocks or extension brackets. Mounting Brackets for Easy-Lifting Systems Manhattan EasyRise uses either standard installation brackets or Manhattan swivel brackets. The two Duette easy-lifting systems require different mounting bracket styles. One bracket is used for all Duette EasyRise shades, and a similar smaller bracket is used for 3 ⁄8" pleat size Duette Easy Glide. Additional Clearance On outside mount installations, spacer blocks or extension brackets can be used with most mounting brackets to allow a shade to clear obstructions, such as a window crank or handle. Each spacer block adds 1⁄2" of clearance, and a maximum of three per bracket can be used. Extension brackets add up to 3" of clearance. Note that spacer blocks cannot be used with Duette Easy Glide mounting brackets. 3 1 3 ⁄4" 3 1⁄4" One size of standard installation bracket and swivel bracket is used with rails for 1⁄2" and 3⁄8" pleat sizes, and a larger size is used with rails for 3⁄4" pleat sizes. The 3 ⁄4" rails also accommodate Double and Triple Honeycomb fabrics.

Effective date 6/1/99 DU-11 DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES bracket styles: one for The Originals Collection and one for The Manhattan Collection. Swivel brackets require less mounting depth. Mounting specifications for swivel brackets and standard installation brackets, as well as for the full variety of other installation hardware, are shown in the table below. The most common mounting brackets for standard rectangular shades are the standard installation bracket and the swivel bracket. The standard installation bracket can be used with either inside- or outside-mounted shades. The swivel bracket is used with inside-mounted shades only. There are two distinct swivel DUETTE ® I N S TA L L AT I O N H A R D WA R E DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES Specialty Mounting Hardware The specialty end mount bracket is used to inside mount standard rectangular shades where other mounting methods are not appropriate – in arched window openings, for example. The brackets must be used when inside-mounted arches and standard shades share a common headrail. Specialty End Mount Bracket Specialty Wall Mount Bracket Specialty wall mount brackets are most commonly used when outside-mounted arches and standard shades share a common headrail. They can also be used in stand-alone installations. The back part of the headrail snaps into the specialty wall mount bracket. Manual Duette Vertiglide shades also utilize a stationary rail bottom bracket to secure the stationary rail(s) to the floor or wall. An available inside mount adaptor allows the bracket to be attached to the casement when floor mounting is not feasible. Outside-mounted motorized shades use two angle brackets to secure the stationary rail to the wall. Inside-mounted motorized shades use a lower motor rail bracket for stationary rail attachment. Manhattan Skyrise and Duette Skyrise The Manhattan Skyrise and Duette Skyrise installation bracket is used for inside-mounted shades, and the universal mounting bracket is used for outside mounts. Manhattan Skyrise Duette Skyrise Installation Bracket Duette Vertiglide Manhattan Skyrise Duette Skyrise Universal Mounting Bracket There are two Duette Vertiglide mounting brackets: a metal bracket used for either inside or outside mounts, and a plastic bracket for inside mounts only. Duette Smart Shade Swivel brackets are the preferred method for attaching the Duette Smart Shade stationary rail. Another alternative is the dual lock fastener. One piece is attached to the sill and the other piece slides into the rail. When pressed together, pads on the two pieces interlock. Dual Lock Fasteners Other Installation Hardware Hold-down brackets are used to prevent the bottom of the shade from swaying. They attach to the Holdinside or outside Down Bracket mounting surface, and a pin on the bracket fits into a hole in the bottom rail end cap. Arch support clips and arch support Arch hooks are used to Support Clip mount circles, and to support the fabric Arch on arches and quarter Support circles.

When installed as directed, the cord tensioner eliminates loose, free-hanging cord loops by keeping the loop taut under Easy Installation The cord tensioner is designed for easy installation inside or outside the window opening using one of several mounting options. Grommets. Grommets can be used to directly mount the cord tensioner inside the window casement. The grommets fit into each side of the circular opening on the tensioner. A screw through the grommets secures the cord tensioner to the mounting surface. Standard Tensioner Bracket. The standard tensioner bracket can be used with either insideor outside-mounted shades. The bracket is mounted at an appropriate height so that when the cord tensioner is attached, the spring inside the unit is placed under the correct amount of tension. Extended Tensioner Bracket. The extended tensioner bracket is used with inside mounts only, when it is necessary to extend the cord tensioner out from the window opening to provide easier access to the cord loop. Cord Tensioner Retrofit Kit A cord tensioner retrofit kit is available to allow consumers to equip existing cord loop products with the cord tensioner. The kit includes everything necessary to assemble and mount the cord tensioner (available in white only). CARE AND MAINTENANCE Durability is a hallmark of Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades. The strong, anti-static fabrics resist dust and dirt, and so require little cleaning and maintenance. Regular dusting with a feather duster is all that’s necessary in most circumstances. For a more thorough cleaning, the fabric can be lightly vacuumed with a brush attachment. Inside Mount (Knock Out) ® ® Standard Tensioner Bracket When needed, most fabrics can be cleaned by gently blotting with a soft, damp cloth or sponge. See the cautions below for exceptions. Use lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Do not apply too much pressure to the fabric. Excessive pressure could cause “pilling” (the formation of small balls of fabric). Take special care when cleaning opaque fabrics to avoid creasing and pilling. Inside Mount Grommets Outside Mount Inside Mount (Knock Out) Extended Tensioner Bracket To accommodate all possible mounting options, each cord tensioner installation packet includes grommets, two types of brackets, and the appropriate mounting screws. A detailed installation guide is also included. Effective date 6/1/99 For clearance and aesthetic considerations, it is important to understand the easy-lifting system deductions and the finished dimensions that result. Contact your Hunter Douglas fabricator for information about the deductions taken from the ordered measurements you submit. Sponge or Spot Cleaning Outside Mount Inside Mount Finished Dimensions IMPORTANT CAUTIONS Do not sponge or spot clean 3⁄4" LinenSoft, LinenSoft Double Honeycomb, 1⁄ 2" Gramercy Park, 1 ⁄ 2" Park Avenue, 1⁄ 2" Tribeca Eclipse, or 1⁄ 2" Park Avenue Eclipse fabrics. DU-13 DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES The importance of child safety cannot be overemphasized. Loose cords on any window treatment should always be secured to protect children and pets. For specifics, please refer to the Child Safety details within the General Information section at the front of this guide. To encourage your customers to take this necessary precaution, all cord-operated Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades come with a Child Safety Kit that includes two cord cleats, mounting screws, and instructions for use. Please encourage your customers to read the instructions, and then install and use the cord cleats. With the continuous cord loops on our easy-lifting systems, always install the cord tensioner and educate your customers on its use. spring tension. This helps prevent children and pets from becoming entangled in the cord loop. DUETTE ® F O R Y O U R I N F O R M AT I O N DUETTE® HONEYCOMB SHADES Basin or Bathtub Cleaning To clean the entire shade, immerse the assembly in lukewarm water with a mild detergent and move it around lightly with your fingers. Wash for about five minutes, then rinse with clean water. Close the shade before removing it from the rinse water. Holding the rails, tilt the shade to allow excess water to escape. Re-install the damp shade back into the window opening and lower the shade all the way to allow it to dry completely. IMPORTANT CAUTIONS Do not immerse 3⁄4" LinenSoft, LinenSoft Double Honeycomb, 1⁄ 2" Gramercy Park, 1⁄ 2" Park Avenue, 1 ⁄ 2" Park Avenue Eclipse, or any opaque fabrics. Do not immerse Duette with PowerRise or any other motorized shade. Do not immerse Manhattan Skyrise, Duette Skyrise, or Duette Vertiglide shades. Do not immerse Manhattan EasyRise, Duette with UltraGlide, Duette EasyRise, or Duette Easy Glide headrails. Do not immerse the Duette Smart Shade sill rail. Ultrasonic Cleaning Professional ultrasonic cleaning is generally a very safe and effective method for comprehensively cleaning a Hunter Douglas honeycomb shade. However, the shade should be handled carefully and only mild cleansing solutions IMPORTANT CAUTIONS Do not ultrasonically clean 3⁄4" LinenSoft, LinenSoft Double Honeycomb, 1⁄ 2" Park Avenue Eclipse, or any opaque fabrics. Do not ultrasonically clean Duette with PowerRise or any other motorized shade. Do not ultrasonically clean Duette with UltraGlide, Manhattan EasyRise, Duette EasyRise, Duette Easy Glide, Duette Vertiglide, Duette Smart Shade, Manhattan Skyrise, or Duette Skyrise shades.

Effective date 6/1/99 DUETTE ® T H E M A N H AT TA N ® C O L L E C T I O N For unmatched elegance in a honeycomb shade … • Sophisticated fabrics in a refined color palette of solids and prints. • Sleek low-profile designer hardware. • Variety of specialty shapes and applications, including Duette with PowerRise. • Duette with UltraGlide, a revolutionary new lifting system, now available in The Manhattan Collection. • Introducing 1" pleat size Washington Square in three beautifully textured fabrics. BEAUTY AND FASHION With its elegant fabrics, exclusive 1 ⁄2" offset pleat design, and streamlined hardware, The Manhattan Collection offers a level of beauty and fashion unequalled by any other honeycomb shade collection. A Refined Palette The eight fabrics in The Manhattan Collection come in a refined color palette of updated neutrals, warm tones, and pastels, in both solids and prints. Two levels of light control are offered: semi-opaque and opaque. The opaque fabrics block 99% of sunlight for superior UV protection and privacy. TruePleat Construction The crisply tailored ⁄2" pleat of Manhattan fabrics is guaranteed to hold its shape permanently, thanks to its patented offset pleat design, called TruePleat. On the 1 The Manhattan Collection • 1/2" Semi-Opaque Tribeca • 1/2" Semi-Opaque Chelsea • 1/2" Semi-Opaque Soho • 1/2" Semi-Opaque Gramercy Park • 1/2" Semi-Opaque Park Avenue • 1/2" Opaque Tribeca Eclipse • 1/2" Opaque Park Avenue Eclipse • 1" Semi-Opaque Washington Square rear side of the fabric, the pleats are slightly smaller than on the front side. When lowered, the weight of the shade may tend to flatten these rear pleats – but the larger pleats in front remain crisp, even, and well defined. Sleek Hardware To complement the elegant look of the Manhattan fabrics, most shade applications feature sleek, low-profile top and bottom rails for a streamlined appearance. The featured application in The Manhattan Collection is Duette with UltraGlide, a revolutionary new lifting system with a retractable cord. The shade lowers itself when the customer moves the cord slightly to the side. And it raises when the customer pulls the cord with a gentle motion. Cord length on this unique system always remains the same, whether the shade is fully raised, fully lowered, or anywhere in between. There are never any dangling cords to detract from the shade’s appearance. Plus, operation is the easiest of any manually-controlled honeycomb shade. Washington Square The newest fabric addition to The Manhattan Collection is the bold 1" pleat size of Washington Square. Washington Square is offered in three unique textures: Angel Hair, Kaleidoscope, and Confetti and is available with Duette UltraGlide or Duette PowerRise shades. Many Application Choices Manhattan Collection fabrics are available in a wide variety of shapes and applications. Easylifting systems like Duette with UltraGlide and Manhattan EasyRise. Skylight shades and shades that open from the top down. Specialty shapes like hexagons, octagons, and angles. And motorized applications, including the ease and convenience of Duette with PowerRise.

Effective date 6/1/99 DUETTE ® T H E M A N H AT TA N ® C O L L E C T I O N U LT R A G L I D E S P E C I F I C AT I O N S Color Coordination Duette with UltraGlide is a lifting system unlike any other. A revolutionary manual system, it uses a unique spring-loaded mechanism to operate the shade. When the cord is moved to a slight angle, the shade gently lowers itself. This movement of the cord is like pressing a switch – spring tension is released in a slow, controlled manner and the bottom rail floats down. To stop the lowering at any point, simply move the cord to the opposite angle. Control is very precise … and very easy. To raise the shade, simply pull on the cord in a gentle pumping action. Each time you pull, the cord retracts to its preset length. And because the cord length always remains the same, there are never any long, dangling cords to detract from the appearance of the shade. Child safety is enhanced, as well. The Duette with UltraGlide headrail is available in six fashionable colors designed to coordinate with the wide range of fabric colors and prints offered with this new lifting system. Fabric color numbers and names are listed for each of the six coordinating headrail colors. Four Applications Duette with UltraGlide is available in all Manhattan Collection fabrics in four versatile applications: standard rectangular; top-down; top-down/bottomup; and two-on-one headrail. It is priced using a width-based surcharge similar to Manhattan EasyRise. Additional surcharges are added for the specialty rectangular applications. 609 FALCON GRAY 834 Morning Fog 977 Carriage Gray 839 873 874 883 893 894 998 Hayloft Buff Rattan Tawny Beige Rattan Buff Pinpoint Buff Tweed Tawny Beige Tweed Cabaret Cream 859 937 947 953 955 987 Patron Green Skyscraper Gotham Green Champagne Landmark Stone Penthouse Pink 953 Carousel Creme 840 852 854 856 877 897 958 981 Flower Market Metro Morn Copper Vogue Cosmopolitan Coral Taupe Rattan Taupe Tweed Pink Balloon Townhouse Tan 674 BAMBOO STALK 652 802 803 811 817 833 836 Popcorn Lamp Light Loft Straw Glitterati Gold Easel Ochre Cafe Candle Gourmet Melon 785 ASPEN WHITE 650 805 807 810 812 832 858 Park Green Market Pear Bohemian Beige Cobblestone Painted Brick Fountain Spray Sophisticate Sage 862 GARDENIA WHITE 653 NEW!

The higher the R-value, the more insulation the product provides. Summer Shading Coefficient measures the amount of heat passing through a covered window versus a bare win- dow. The lower the number, the less heat is transferred. In summer, less heat transfer means a cooler room. % UV Blockage measures the product’s effectiveness in preventing harmful ultraviolet rays from entering the home’s interior. The higher the percentage, the more UV rays are blocked. Sound Absorption measures the amount of sound absorbed by the shade. The higher the number, the better the sound absorption. DU-40 Effective date 6/1/99 DUETTE ® THE ORIGINALS COLLECTION™ The collection with the “most”! customers can actually have two opacities in one shade! • The most choices of colors, textures, and prints. Application Choices • The most choices of pleat sizes and cell configurations. • The most choices of translucencies, from sheer to opaque. • The most choices of energy efficiencies. • The most popular shade now in millions of homes has the most proven performance and reliability. REMEMBER WHEN … Back in 1985, when the original Duette honeycomb shade was introduced, the product line consisted of the 3⁄8" Semi-Opaque fabric in 12 colors, with one application (standard rectangular) from which to choose. How times have changed! The Originals Collection from Duette now offers your customers more choices than they could imagine. And this broad product offering helps them choose shades that enhance their decor and lifestyle. Colors and Textures From pale pastels to striking jewel tones. From gentle whites to dark, dramatic colors. No other collection has such variety of color. Textures add even more choice. From the warm look of linen in our semi-sheer and the delicate lace of our sheer fabric to the warm, inviting look of our beautiful soft-hand fabric, LinenSoft. Pleat Sizes and Cell Configurations The Most Chosen Shades Our energy efficient and easy to maintain honeycomb fabrics are available in a variety of pleat sizes and cell configurations. Choose the quiet look of the crisp 3⁄8" pleat or the striking appearance of the 3 ⁄4" pleat. Or for richer color and increased energy efficiency, choose one of our Double or Triple Honeycomb fabrics. Shades made from fabrics in The Originals Collection are the honeycomb shades chosen most frequently. And it’s no mystery why. For performance, reliability, quality, and selection, can you imagine a better honeycomb shade collection anywhere? Translucency and Light Control Some customers may want a darkened room when their shades are closed. Others will prefer bright sunlight filtered through a sheer fabric. For all your customers, The Originals Collection has the translucency and light control options to meet their needs. There are four distinct degrees of privacy and light control from which to choose: sheer, semi-sheer, semiopaque, and opaque.

Their continuous cord loop and clutch assembly work together to make it easy to raise and lower shades up to 150 square feet in area. Duette Easy Glide Available in widths up to 132", Duette Easy Glide is designed for use with 3⁄8" honeycomb fabrics only. When the cord loop is pulled, a clutch assembly rotates a drive shaft, which turns a roller bar to wind and unwind the lift cords, raising or lowering the shade. It is available only in a manual system. Duette EasyRise The popular Duette EasyRise is also available in widths up to 174". Instead of lift cords, Duette EasyRise uses special lift tapes that wind and unwind as the shade is raised and lowered. Along with manual systems, motorized options may be ordered. All fabrics in The Originals Collection are available with the Duette EasyRise system, including the 3⁄8" pleat size. However, unless the shade is wider than 132" or a motorized option is desired, 3⁄8" honeycomb fabrics are generally used with the Duette Easy Glide system.

Duette Vertiglide shades open and close from side to side, and are most often used to cover sliding glass doors and French doors. In addition to manual operation, switch-control and remote-control motorized options are available (see pages DU-88 to DU-89). There are four possible configurations of Duette Vertiglide: left stack, right stack, center opening (sometimes called “split draw”), and center stack. In a left stack design, the left vertical rail is stationary and the right vertical rail is moving – the fabric stacks left and draws right. In a right stack design, the right vertical rail is stationary and the shade draws left. Center opening designs have two stationary and two moving vertical rails; the fabric stacks both left and right, and draws toward the middle. In a center stack design, two moving vertical rails are used; the fabric stacks anywhere along the top rail and draws in either direction. A Duette Vertiglide Duolite configuration is also available. This is basically a center opening design with a different fabric on each side, each of which can span the full width of the shade. Colors and opacities can be combined to add fashion and function to the window or door opening.

Maximum height varies with the width of the shade and the fabric being used. Duette Smart Shades are operated using a handle in the sill bar. An extension pole is available to operate shades in difficult-to-reach locations. Duette Smart Shade moves on gears riding along a flexible gear track. Because the gear track and shade can curve, Duette Smart Gear Track “L” Retainer “T” Retainer Shade is ideal for greenhouse or solarium windows. It can also be used in skylights and vertical rectangular window openings. The gear tracks can fit directly into a pre-existing channel in the window frame, or they can fit into retainers attached to the window frame. There are two basic types of flexible retainers: the “L” retainer and the “T” retainer. The “T” retainer can accommodate gear tracks on each side for sideto-side applications. In addition, Groove Retainer a groove retainer is required for installing gear track into the side channels of greenhouse windows. Optional mounting hardware includes track stops and bridges. Track stops are used in installations which do not have a sill to support the sill bar; the stops prevent the sill bar from going off the end of the gear track. Bridges are used to increase the clearance between the gear track and the glass or any obstruction to shade movement.

The higher the R-value, the more insulation the product provides. Summer Shading Coefficient measures the amount of heat passing through a covered window versus a bare win- dow. The lower the number, the less heat is transferred. In summer, less heat transfer means a cooler room. % UV Blockage measures the product’s effectiveness in preventing harmful ultraviolet rays from entering the home’s interior. The higher the percentage, the more UV rays are blocked. Sound Absorption measures the amount of sound absorbed by the shade. The higher the number, the better the sound absorption.

However, there are a few important differences: • Infrared Eye Placement. You must specify right or left infrared eye placement. Indicate eye placement even if you are ordering a satellite eye. Placement cannot be changed after the shade is fabricated. • Remote Control. Generally, one remote control per room is recommended. Additional remote controls can be ordered at any time. • Satellite Eye. Order if the headrail will be covered by a top treatment. Optional satellite eye wire lengths can be ordered for high or stacked windows to ensure proper shade operation. • Satellite Battery Pack and AC Transformer. Order the satellite battery pack if easier access to the batteries is desired. Order the AC transformer if the customer wants to eliminate the need for batteries. • PowerRise Timer. If the customer wants to automate shade opening and closing with a wide variety of programming options, order the optional PowerRise timer. • Channel 2 Operation. Order if channel 2 is desired for independent operation of adjacent or stacked shades. Channel operation cannot be changed after the shade is fabricated. See page DU-82 for details. Effective date 6/1/99 ORDERING CHECKLIST Use the checklist below to be sure you consider all the important factors when ordering Duette with PowerRise shades. ✔ Is the shade within size specifications for the fabric ordered? ✔ Will adjacent shades require alternate left and right infrared eye placement to be sure the eyes are more than 48" apart for reliable independent operation using a single channel? ✔ Is channel 2 desired to ensure independent operation of adjacent or stacked shades? ✔ Is more than one remote control required for shades in different rooms or on different floors? ✔ Will a top treatment cover the headrail, requiring a satellite eye? ✔ Is a satellite battery pack needed to make changing the batteries easier? ✔ Is the AC transformer desired to eliminate the need for batteries? ✔ Will the PowerRise timer add convenience and function for the customer? ✔ With outside mounts, are spacer blocks needed for added clearance?

A convenient Owners Guide, packaged with each remote control, explains the basic procedures in a clear, step-by-step manner. DUETTE ® WITH POWERRISE® DUETTE® WITH POWERRISE® OTHER MOTORIZATION OPTIONS D E S I G N A N D O P E R AT I O N Safety Stop Built-In Battery Wand Duette PowerRise has a built-in Safety Stop. When the shade touches an object in its path, it stops moving. Remind your customer to be sure the shade will clear any obstructions, such as window cranks or handles, when it is installed. Shades up to 26" wide use eight AAA batteries in the short battery wand, while shades over 26" wide use eight AA batteries in the long battery wand. To replace either size of battery: • Lift the cover rail until it clicks into its open position to access the battery wand. • Press on the clip at the motor end of the battery wand to release the wand from the brackets. Remove the wand from the headrail. • To replace the battery wand, depress the spring and snap the wand back into its brackets. Depress the spring and snap the battery wand back into its brackets. • To close the cover rail, grasp the rail gently and close firmly. Satellite Battery Pack Built-in Safety Stop Satellite Eye If the infrared eye on the headrail will be covered by a top treatment or cornice, your customers can order the optional satellite eye. It can be positioned a short distance from the headrail for easy, reliable operation. Press on the clip to remove the battery wand. • Follow the instructions on the battery wand label to remove the wand cap and replace the old batteries. Since one bad battery can shorten the life of the rest, be sure to replace all eight batteries. Make sure the new alkaline batteries are correctly aligned, matching the illustration on the label. The optional satellite battery pack makes it easier to change the batteries, especially if the shade is installed in a difficult to access window. The satellite battery pack can be mounted in a convenient location up to eight feet away from the headrail – for example, next to molding or under the sill. The satellite battery pack connects to the same side of the headrail where the infrared eye is located. To replace the eight AA batteries, push in the circular latch at the wire end of the battery pack and lift up the cover. Install eight new alkaline batteries as shown inside the battery pack. Then replace the cover, snapping it securely closed. Optional Satellite Eye Long Battery Life With normal use, the batteries that power Duette PowerRise shades will last a year and a half or more. When they finally begin to lose power and the shade starts to operate slowly, replace the batteries. Don’t wait until they completely lose power and shade movement stops. Replacement procedures are similar for the built-in battery wand and for the optional satellite battery pack. DU-80 Install new batteries as indicated on the wand label. USE 8 AAA BATTERIES. USE ALKALINE BATTERIES ONLY. BATTERY ORIENTATION: REINSTALL BATTERY WAND WITH LABEL FACING OUTWARD. FOR ASSISTANCE CALL 1-800-327-8953. Portion of AAA battery wand label Simply lift off the cover to replace batteries in the optional satellite battery pack. Effective date 6/1/99 DUETTE ® WITH POWERRISE® D E S I G N A N D O P E R AT I O N Versatile Programming To entirely eliminate batteries, Duette with PowerRise is now available with an optional AC transformer. The transformer plugs into a standard wall outlet and connects to the shade using a 16' wire. The timer can be programmed to operate shades four times a day on each of the two PowerRise channels. For example, the timer can be set to raise shades in the morning, close them in the hot afternoon hours, raise them again in the early evening, and close them when it gets dark. The timer can be programmed for different times on different days, or it can be programmed the same for all days. Your customers can also choose to program the shade one way for weekdays and another for weekends. There’s even a “holiday” program that operates the shades randomly when the owners are on vacation to simulate the home being occupied. Wall or Tabletop Mounting The AC transformer eliminates the need for batteries and connects directly from the wall outlet to the shade. The attractive timer, which also serves as a clock, can be mounted to a wall or it can be placed on a tabletop, mantle or shelf. Brackets and a stand are provided. In addition to its programming capabilities, the PowerRise timer includes three manual buttons on its face: on/off; open; and close. When shades are manually opened and closed using the timer, all shades in the room – whether channel 1 or channel 2 – are operated. Distance Between Infrared Eyes When adjacent Duette PowerRise shades are operated using the hand-held remote control, the distance between infrared eyes is important to avoid unintentional activation of one shade by the remote control signal intended for another shade. For independent shade operation, the recommended minimum distance between infrared eyes is 48". To achieve this minimum distance, shades may be ordered with the infrared eyes placed at opposite ends of adjacent headrails, as shown in the illustration below. PowerRise™ Timer The optional timer now available with Duette PowerRise shades is very versatile in its usage. The timer has eight LED’s to send infrared signals in a 180° radius to operate shades. This means that, if placed on one wall of a room, it can activate shades on the other three walls. DISTANCE BETWEEN INFRARED EYES RECOMMENDED: The PowerRise™ timer is a very versatile option, with features that add convenience and function. ACCEPTABLE: NOT RECOMMENDED: MORE THAN 48" MORE THAN 48" LESS THAN 48" As a general rule, the infrared eyes on adjacent shades should be positioned as far apart as possible for independent operation of each shade using a single channel. The minimum separation for independent single-channel operation is 48". Effective date 6/1/99 DU-81 DUETTE® WITH POWERRISE® OTHER MOTORIZATION OPTIONS AC Transformer DUETTE ® WITH POWERRISE® D E S I G N A N D O P E R AT I O N DUETTE® WITH POWERRISE® OTHER MOTORIZATION OPTIONS Two-Channel Operation Two channels are available to operate Duette with PowerRise shades. Normally, channel 1 is the only channel needed. However, there may be special circumstances with adjacent or stacked shades when channel 2 operation is desired for independent control of each shade. When the 48" separation between infrared eyes is not possible, two-channel operation can be ordered for independent shade operation. Some shades can be set to respond only to the channel 1 signal from the remote control, and others can be set to respond only to channel 2. A switch at the top of the remote control is used to change from one channel to the other. Two-channel operation is recommended with stacked shades, banks of shades, and shades in bay windows. Twochannel operation is rarely essential. It’s usually a matter of customer preference. Duette with PowerRise shades are factory set for channel 1 operation. Shades must be specified for channel 2 operation at the time they are ordered. TWO-CHANNEL OPERATION INDEPENDENT OPERATION WITH STACKED SHADES CHANNEL 1 CHANNEL 2 To ensure independent operation of adjacent or stacked shades, Duette with PowerRise can be ordered for channel 1 or channel 2 operation. A switch at the top of the remote control is used to change from one channel to the other. Shown at right is an example of two channel operation. Operating Specifications Angle of the Infrared Beam Maximum Mounting Height The maximum side angle of the infrared beam from perpendicular to the infrared eye is 45°. When the remote control is pointed upward at the shade’s cover rail, the maximum vertical angle is 55°. These two maximum angles are illustrated below. The maximum recommended mounting height of the headrail or satellite eye is 16 feet. Distance from Remote Control to Shade The maximum recommended distance from the remote control to the infrared eye is 30 feet.

The following overview will help you discuss basic installation considerations with your customers. Bracket spacing is the same for each mounting style. The two end brackets are positioned so that their outside edges will be 4" from the ends of the headrail. Space any additional brackets evenly between the end brackets. AC Transformer Installation With outside mounts, the installation brackets are attached to the wall or molding outside the window casing. A flat vertical surface at least 3⁄4" high is required. The brackets must be mounted level and aligned at the same height. Connect the wire from the transformer to the motor circuit board according to the instructions supplied with the shade. Hold the headrail high enough so that the bottom rail will not hit the floor when the shade is lowered, and test for proper operation. OUTSIDE MOUNT MINIMUM MOUNTING SURFACE HEIGHT 3/4" Mounting Styles There are three basic mounting styles: inside mount, outside mount, and ceiling mount. Inside Mount With inside mounts, installation brackets are attached to the soffit inside the window casing. Bracket attachment requires a minimum depth of 5⁄8", as shown below. Spacer blocks can be used with outside mounts to project the installation bracket away from the mounting surface to avoid obstructions to shade movement. Each spacer block adds 1⁄2" clearance. A maximum of three blocks may be used to gain a total of 11⁄2". 4" 5/8" MINIMUM MOUNTING DEPTH To fully recess the shade, the window casing must be at least 2" deep for 3⁄8" and 1⁄2" pleat sizes, or 2 3⁄8" for all other fabrics. Add to these minimum depths any extra clearance needed to avoid obstructions to shade movement, such as window cranks or handles. Ceiling Mount Brackets can be mounted to the ceiling in a similar manner. With both inside mounts and ceiling mounts, be sure the mounting surface is level and the front edges of the brackets are aligned. Effective date 6/1/99 Install the shade into the mounting brackets by tipping the headrail forward to fit its back bottom edge into the lower lip of each bracket. Then rotate the headrail upward until it snaps into the locking tab on all the brackets. SHADE INSTALLATION Spacer Blocks INSIDE MOUNT Shade Installation BRACKET LOCKING TAB HEADRAIL LIFT COVER RAIL SHADE REMOVAL Battery Installation Battery Wand Before mounting the shade, batteries must be loaded into the battery wand and the wand installed inside the headrail. See the instructions on page DU-80 or on the battery wand label. Satellite Battery Pack Connect the wire from the satellite battery pack to the motor circuit board according to the installation instructions supplied with the shade. Install batteries into the battery pack as described on page DU-80. Testing After Battery Installation Hold the headrail high enough so that the bottom rail will not hit the floor when the shade is lowered, and test the shade for proper operation. PUSH LOCKING TAB AND TWIST Remove the shade from the installation brackets by first opening the cover rail. Then, using a flat blade screwdriver, carefully push up on the locking tab of each bracket and twist the screwdriver to release the headrail. Satellite Eye Installation Attach the optional satellite eye to the mounting surface using a screw through its hinged base. Locate the eye where it can receive an unobstructed signal from the remote control. Resetting the Shade After the shade is installed, it must be reset to ensure reliable operation. See the resetting instructions on page DU-79.
