WARNING

CORD SAFETY DEVICE
• Young children can STRANGLE in the loop of pull
cords, chains and tapes and cords that operate
window coverings. They can also wrap cords
around their necks.
• To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep
cords out of the reach of young children.
• Move beds, cots and furniture away from window
covering cords.
• Inner cords can pull down to form a loop, which
can STRANGLE a young child.
Fitting
• First, ensure blind has been
installed as per instructions.
• Select suitable position to fit
appropriate retainer. If cord &
cleat, making sure it is out of
reach of children. If one of the
cord/chain retainers, fit at
position for length of chain/cord.
Fit so that the retainer takes out
slack but without over tightening.
• Mark and fix the retainer using the
fixing provided. Check that a
secure fixing has been achieved.
• In the case of single pull cord
products, make sure cords are
tied out of reach each time used.
Persons in charge of children are ultimately responsible for following the safety
instructions provided by the manufacturer.
