Troubleshooting
Blind does not fit the window.
Verify that your Velux roof window has one of the compatible reference codes: GGL MK08, GGU MK08, GPL MK08, or GPU MK08. Ensure the blind is aligned correctly with the top and sides of the window frame during installation.
Blind is difficult to position or move.
Check for any obstructions in the window frame or on the blind's tracks. Ensure the mechanism is clean and free from dust or debris. Operate the blind smoothly without forcing it.
Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.
Allow the blind to hang fully extended for a few days to let creases settle. You can also try gently steaming the fabric from a distance (do not touch the fabric with the iron) or wiping it with a slightly damp cloth and allowing it to dry fully extended.
Slight light leakage observed.
This is normal for an 'almost' complete blackout blind. Ensure the blind is fully extended and centered within the window frame. For critical light control needs, consider adding secondary light-blocking measures.
