Troubleshooting

Blind does not roll up or down smoothly

Check if the blind is centered in its brackets. Ensure there are no obstructions on the window sill. Verify the pull chain mechanism is correctly engaged.

Light still leaks around the edges

Ensure the blind is wide enough to cover the entire window frame, including a small overlap. Check that the mounting brackets are installed straight and securely.

Pull chain is stuck or difficult to operate

Gently try to unhook and re-hook the chain. Ensure the chain is not twisted. Check the mechanism at the top of the roller for any visible blockages.

Material appears creased

Hang the blind and allow it to hang fully extended for a few days. Light and gravity should help smooth out minor creases over time. Avoid ironing.
